BlogOur counselor, Darrell Craig, is coming home! For almost 2 weeks, he's been in Haiti with a large group of Volunteer Ministers from the Church of Scientology. This week-end he'll fly back to Jacksonville to resume his counseling practice at the Life Improvement Center.On the 168-seat aircraft that flew Darrell to Haiti, there were medical personnel, including more than 100 doctors, nurses and other health care professionals from the Association of Haitian Physicians Abroad. Also on the flight were specialists in water filtration and sanitary systems, telecommunications experts, and representatives from three international adoption agencies. During his first week in Haiti, Darrell assisted in a Port-au-Prince hospital. Currently, he is working at a refuge camp and an orphanage. "We had to reach out to provide substantial and meaningful help to the victims of this disaster," said Pat Harney, a spokesperson for the Scientology Volunteer Ministers who is heading up the team in Haiti. "We have an outpouring of support from Scientologists and others around the world and we are underway in getting much-needed aid to the people of Port-au-Prince. Created more than 30 years ago by Scientology Founder L. Ron Hubbard, the Scientology Volunteer Ministers Corps has expanded to 203,000 Volunteer Ministers worldwide who have served at 145 worst-case disaster sites, including Ground Zero after 9/11, the Southeast Asia tsunami and Hurricane Katrina. |
