Scientology Volunteer Ministers Take the Lead in Haiti Relief Efforts

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) January 16, 2010 -- The Scientology Volunteer Ministers Disaster Response Team has taken the lead role in relief efforts after Haiti's devastating 7.0 earthquake. Flying in from beautiful Clearwater, Florida to the hideous rubble of Port au Prince, capital of Haiti, the Response Team hit the ground running and immediately took charge.

The Volunteer Ministers' big yellow tent has become known as "the" place to visit for help with handling trauma, getting supplies, or just to find someone to talk to after grueling hours of arduous work in the disaster zone. The Volunteer Ministers are working in Haiti with the US Military, the United Nations, and many other agencies such as the Red Cross, Doctors Without Borders and UNICEF, who greatly value their calm expertise in the disaster zone . Volunteer Ministers provide urgently needed relief and administrative skill to bring order and ensure maximum help in times of disaster, including earthquakes, tsunamis and volcano eruptions. They are also specialists in trauma relief. They not only help on a one-on-one basis but they also train other agencies, organizations and individuals in these techniques. They are training all the other relief organization personnel in Scientology Disaster Response training. This training, discovered by humanitarian L. Ron Hubbard, helps relief workers learn Scientology Assists, a technology that provides a gentle massage when someone is in the midst of a crisis.

When disaster strikes, the Scientology Volunteer Ministers are always near. Trained to respond to emergency situations, they provide whatever is needed to immediately alleviate suffering and bring order quickly. And because the technology they apply is simple and affective, they quickly train others so they too can provide help. As the world's largest volunteer relief agency, over 100,000 strong and spanning every continent of this planet, there are more than ten times as many Scientology Volunteer Ministers as there are people in the US Peace Corps; more than twice as many as are in the US Coast Guard; and about half as many as are in the US Marine Corps. Scientology Volunteer Ministers work hand-in-hand with the Red Cross, the Girl Scouts of America, the Fire Department of New York and other key agencies, to provide assistance where it is needed. In point of fact, Scientology Volunteer Ministers are the only people on the planet who can provide true assistance when disaster strikes.
