A free talk by Deborah Packer – Everyone is Welcome
This talk is an exploration of love as more than sentiment—divine Love is a spiritual law with the power to heal. Through accounts and practical examples, Deb explains how prayer rooted in this love can reveal truth, dissolve fear, and restore harmony in any situation.
Deborah grew up in a Christian Science family where spiritual healing was considered just the normal way of handling life’s problems, including illness. Over the years she witnessed her parents quickly heal many childhood diseases and even the effects of accidents and illness in their pets. As Deborah grew so did her desire to also be able to heal like this.
From a young age she didn’t doubt that she would some day be able to heal others. She wanted to be able to share this healing power with the world. Since 2012 she has been listed in the Christian Science Journal as Christian Science healer.
After leaving high school Deborah completed an office management course and worked for a few years in office administration. However, although this was a learning time, she found it didn’t afford many opportunities to help others in the way she yearned to do, so she continued her studies gaining a qualification for primary school teaching and then, several post-graduate qualifications and a Masters Degree.
Deborah worked for the New South Wales Department of Education for over thirty years. For most of this time she worked with students who had been diagnosed with significant learning difficulties and intellectual disabilities. For the last ten years of this work, she led a team of fifty-plus specialist learning difficulties teachers. These years provided her with constant opportunities to use the truths she had been taught in Christian Science and to witness man’s unlimited potential.
Towards the end of this time, Deborah found she was receiving requests for prayerful support. This led her to resign from the Education Department and take up the full-time practice of Christian Science healing.
This talk is sponsored by the members of the Christian Science Church in Canberra.
Date: Saturday 10 October @ 2.00 pm

Why should we handle our problems from a spiritual perspective if the issue is physical? Evan Mehlenbacher, shares fresh insights on how we can experience lasting healing of any issue through spiritual means alone.
What can we do when we feel that our prayers lack inspiration and healing results? Mark Swinney, has found it to be immeasurably helpful to invite God in when he prays. Listen in to find out what he means.
Divine Love blesses its own ideas, and causes them to multiply, — to manifest His power. Man is not made to till the soil. His birthright is dominion, not subjection. He is lord of the belief in earth and heaven, himself subordinate alone to his Maker. This is the Science of being.
(Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy p517: 30)
In patient obedience to a patient God, let us labor to dissolve with the universal solvent of Love the adamant of error, — self-will, self-justification, and self-love, — which wars against spirituality and is the law of sin and death.
(Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy p242:15)
