I had left the house in a hurry to go to the Wednesday testimony meeting at my branch Church of Christ, Scientist. I was to be the Reader that night. My left arm was filled with books when I went outside to my car, which was parked on the street. As I opened the door, a loud roar filled my ears. A large truck was coming at high speed down my side of the street, so I hurriedly jumped into the car, grabbed the top of the heavy door with my right hand, and pulled on the door to get it out of the truck’s way. However, the fingers of my right hand were still grasping the top of the window frame as the door slammed shut, and they felt the impact.
Quickly I opened the door with my other hand and freed my fingers. My thoughts went immediately to the truth: I live in the spiritual kingdom of God, which is governed by divine Principle, not chance. All is under God’s perfect control, so in reality there can be no accidents and no injuries. I am intact and free!
When I looked at my fingers, they had no marks on them. There wasn’t even pain—just a hint of soreness, which quickly disappeared and never returned.
Pausing to think about what had just occurred, I realized I had allowed myself no time to feel fear. I had simply refused to accept that a child of God—me or anyone—could be subject to any mishap, and the result was immediate healing. Two favorite Bible passages had come to my thought: from the ninety-first Psalm, “He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty,” and from the forty-sixth Psalm, “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” I had just experienced the truth of those words in a very practical way, and I was flooded with awe and gratitude for God, who is ever-present Love.
This incident would commonly be called an accident. However, I had been studying Christian Science, and had seen many healings through divinely scientific Christian prayer and had previously escaped injury in a car crash. Accident can be defined as something unplanned or outside God’s control. But the spiritual fact is that God is always in control of His entire creation. Harmony is God’s law. This experience had just proven to me that an accident has no power to harm me or anyone—no power to disorder anything in God’s kingdom.

Thank you to all who came to visit us yesterday, Sunday, in the Garden at the Christian Science Reading Room to participate in our Scavenger hunt we like to call, God’s name game.
We had 98 children/teens come and play the game, with their parents, grandparents, and siblings in tow. Everyone had a great time and got a free prize after they learned the 7 synonyms of God – Principle, Mind, Soul, Spirit, Life, Truth, Love – as found in the Christian Science textbook Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. In it’s full context the definition of God reads, God. The great I AM; the all-knowing, all-seeing, all-acting, all-wise, all-loving, and eternal; Principle; Mind; Soul; Spirit; Life; Truth; Love; all substance;intelligence. We like to say that, for many, yesterday’s activity was their first day of Sunday school. If you would like to know what kids learn in Sunday school, click on the link below What do you learn in Sunday school?

My father came home late one day. At dinner he told us how he learned at a lecture that Christian Scientists heal themselves through prayer. That night, a question he wrote in his youth on the margins of a book, “Does God really exist?” had finally been answered.
I started attending Sunday School at age 9, and made Christian Science my own at 17, when a diagnosed rheumatic fever required that I restrain from all physical activity for several months. Those months of persistent study and prayer led to a healing, and showed me the unlimited possibilities before us, as we know God, and ourselves as His image and likeness.
After taking college courses in engineering and journalism, and also working in the textile industry in Argentina and Chile, I decided to get more involved in the healing activity of Christian Science. I applied to take Christian Science nursing courses, which showed me, as nothing else had before, God’s healing power. Later, I completed my college degree at Principia College and then applied to work at The Mother Church. Years later, I started the Spanish radio edition of The Herald of Christian Science.
My practitioner’s listing in The Christian Science Journal in 2007 was a natural step after having been taking practice cases for several years. Now, having taken Normal class in 2012, I teach the spirit and the letter of this marvelous Science, which for years has been opening my eyes to the laws and blessings of divine Love.
It was a good time for all that came in to see us at the Reading Room and we welcomed in over a 1000 friends from our community. We are always here to support your health and happiness.
Enjoy the video of all the great costumes. If you see a picture that you would like, email us at christiansciencenote@gmail.com.
