      Christian Science has been recognized as an effective approach to bringing about Christian Healing for over 100 years. There are thousands of authenticated cases of people who have experienced healings of many types of healings, financial problems, relationship problems, overcoming physical diseases, and just feeling a sense of personal "worthiness". I have experienced healings of many things ranging from healings of depression, job difficulties, employment transitions, and other physical healings of various illnesses. Because of my gratitude to God for leading me to this practical approach to Christian Healing; I am grateful to share this wonderful healing approach. I am glad to offer my services to the public. A medical doctor, who witnessed Mary Baker Eddy, the discoverer of Science onced healed a man who was declared incurable. The attending medical doctor witnessed this healing & implored her to write a textbook describing her healing process and everything connected with it. Well, she took his advice and wrote "Science & Health with Key to the Scriptures". With this book, anyone--no matter what their background--can start healing by applying the principles found in this book. To have really read this book....means truly that you demonstrate the spiritual facts here! I can show you had Christian Science treatment is all about showing you that God is real & that you are truly cared for....that there is a direct relationship with God that is truly reliable & practical! If you have an interest in finding out about Christian Science, remember that it is entirely open to anyone from any background, even non-Christian or non-religious! Remember, God, divine Love "is no respecter of persons", so that we are all equals in the sight of God, Divine Love! Learn about what it means to live a spiritual life in a new dimension that has always been and is, NOW! Show less

      Dear Friends,I have a new reading program which is complementary to Analytical Reading. Allow me to may make an analogy clearly illustrating the difference: Analytical Reading is to Spanish Grammar as my new program, Scientific Reading, is to a synthesized Spanish Book Report. . I offer my new program of three course offerings with the intent of enriching and deepening the spiritual growth of my fellow Christian Scientists. See details below: 1. Scientific Reading, Anytime, AnyplaceIn this course, I teach how to get to the inspiration of God’s Word, how to understand it more heart-level basis, and how to communicate orally the spirit of the written word instead of just merely reciting like you would do in a classroom: by yourself, with your spouse, with your family, with friends or relatives, in a Church setting. This course helps you have a more meaningful healing effect immediately, as well as a longer term effect, in the privacy of your home, with friends or relatives, or in a Church setting. 2. Reciting the Lord’s Prayer in the Ancient Aramaic 3. Learning how to read Ancient Aramaic aloudLearn to read this language to yourself, family, friends, or a Church group by easily learning Elementary Ancient Aramaic.Read aloud the Gospel of Matthew in Aramaic.I now have an extra website where you can buy ARAMAIC LANGUAGE MATERIALS..=www.letinthelightpublishing.com If interested, please call me at 1-816-569-1994 or email me at zappori@yahoo.com. I look forward to hearing from you! ------------------Robert Weiss*I want to emphatically state that all of Mary Baker Eddy’s writings as well as all other authorized literature are also vital in helping you to gain understanding and healing in Christian Science. However, it was Mrs. Eddy’s wish that the two textbooks used in Class Instruction should continue to teach us how to heal and be healed after the classes are over.PLEASE CONTACT ME HERE IF INTERESTED!!! Show less Also, through Edelweiss Communications, I am now making available an outstanding, very cost-effective Foreign Language/ ESL Immersion Program"The Learnables" that has proven itself extremely well in the Home School Market since 1976. Website /Direct Contact information is above. You must type in "-Edelweiss" after your name to get an extra discount, so the website address is www.learnables.com ......It is outstanding!!! I am a former German and Spanish Teacher, so I should know,right? Also, as soon as I am qualified, I will also become a Reading Coach of Sacred Literature...primarily in English with Spanish and German to follow.Also, I am planning on teaching the Bible from the Aramaic Perspective, particularly the NT, as well as the OT...This is the language of Eastern Christians, much closer to what Jesus actually spoke. ..I will keep all of you updated on both of these! Now, I am a Sacred Literature Reading Consultant with a new program that I am developing! Also, I teaching Elementary Biblical Aramaic and Biblical Hebrew. I also will be qualified to teach The Bible from an Aramaic Perspective this Fall.....If you have an interest in these areas, here are my Program Offerings: Dear Friends,I have a new reading program which is complementary to Analytical Reading. Allow me to may make an analogy clearly illustrating the difference: Analytical Reading is to Basic English Grammar as my new program, Scientific Reading, is to Creative Writing. 1. Scientific Reading, Anytime, Anyplace 2. Reciting the Lord’s Prayer in the Ancient Aramaic 3. Learning how to read Ancient Aramaic aloud Read aloud the gospel of Matthew in Ancient Aramaic .
