Scientology Volunteer Ministers Spread Peace, in face of North Korean Hysteria

A Volunteer Minister does not shut his eyes to the pain, evil and injustice of existence. With everything we have going on in the news right now, attempting to make things look like the best plan is to be apathetic and just wait for George Bush to start another war, Scientology Volunteer Ministers have the opposite look -- getting people to be more causative over their lives.

In 1976, L. Ron Hubbard, founder of the Scientology religion, wrote an essay titled,

“Religious Influence in Society,” in which he launched the Scientology Volunteer Ministers program and described the role of the Scientology Volunteer Ministers in these terms:

“...a Volunteer Minister is a person who helps his fellow man on a volunteer basis by restoring purpose, truth and spiritual values to the lives of others.

“A Volunteer Minister does not shut his eyes to the pain, evil and injustice of existence. Rather, he is trained to handle these things and help others achieve relief from them and new personal strength as well.

“How does a Volunteer Minister accomplish these miracles? Basically, he uses the technology of Scientology to change conditions for the better—for himself, his family, his groups, friends, associates and for mankind.”
