Learn to Pray and Heal

Nate Frederick, a Christian Science practitioner and healer, will present a talk, Learn to Pray and Heal (a spiritual adventure), at 4 p.m., October 8, at First Church of Christ, Scientist, based on universal healing precepts taught by Christ Jesus as recorded in the Bible and discussed in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, by Mary Baker Eddy, the founder of the Christian Science movement. A member of the Christian Science Board of Lectureship who lives in New England, Frederick will include examples of physical ills and personal difficulties healed in his own life, as well as his professional practice of Christian Science.

“Even if you have no experience with spirituality or religion, or you’re not even sure what you think about God, can you still pray and be healed? Yes, because prayer and healing are natural to us, and I say this as one who didn’t even grow up in a religious household. But what I’ve discovered as I’ve studied Christian Science is that a willingness to shift perspectives, to see things in a new, more spiritual way, has a beneficial effect—for anyone,” says Frederick.
