Church of Scientology, Mission of Genesee County
Jean Douglas Clarkson did a nice job in her coverage of the Church of Scientology Mission of Genesee County, Michigan.
She quotes Jan Bannon, the director of the mission as saying " "Our purpose as a mission is to introduce new people to Scientology and help them to be more 'at cause' in their lives," Bannon said.
"If someone needs help, I have been trained in the basics and can give them tools to help them withdraw from drugs, alleviate physical pain, help with school and study as well as relationship problems and depression."
"Scientology is open to people of any faith, he said. It is a nondenominational church, using applied religious philosophy meant to help improve conditions in life. It is not a belief system."
As a Scientologist this makes sense to me. I started at a Scientology mission myself - a little over 36 years ago now.
I've never looked back.
