Practical Wisdom & Intentionality of Care

“The more I get help from other places, the more I appreciate Sunrise Haven. It’s all about Christian Science and the people who love Christian Science …knowing the practical way to care for the sick. One of the nicest memories that I have [of being at Sunrise Haven] is of a Christian Science nurse who was carefully providing care to me and singing a hymn the entire time. I can hardly express how beautiful that was. The testimony meetings were extremely helpful and I was really grateful for the very dear readers who would come and spend their time preparing readings and hymns. Even though I enjoyed being at Sunrise Haven, I was reminded often that the goal was not to just have me be there and enjoy everything but the goal was to have me be independent enough to leave. It's so wonderful that Sunrise has a staff that is able to practice this level of care.…all the Christian Science nurses provided a beautiful combination of practical wisdom and Christian Science care.”
