One of the greatest gifts I have received from L. Ron Hubbard is the ability to help.
Most everyone, at one point in his or her live, has felt helpless when help was needed--when a loved one died, when a disaster struck destroying a lifetime's possessions, when a friend felt betrayed. To be able to do more than sympathize, to be effective, what would we have given for that ability.
As a Scientology Volunteer Minister I know I have the tools to help no matter the circumstances. And there is not greater gift than that.
