The Volunteer Ministers are reaching out and helping anyone in the area that needs help from pitching tents to cleaning out debris from people's yards. There is no task too big or small for the Volunteers to take on to help those in needed. Oklahoma is still very much in need of our help.

Nearly six weeks after a twister hit this part of the state, the destruction is still visible. The Scientology Volunteer Ministers have been featured on Oklahoma's News 9 for the work that they are doing to help the community even down to those "forgotten" people that were not helped by the traditional relief organizations. 

The Volunteer Ministers have been helping local residents to clean up after the storms and to remove debris from the wheat fields which are a major part of the local economy. Their work so far has saved close to half a million Dollars in potential lost income.

Large areas of downtown Calgary have been evacuated due to flooding. This has displaced over 75,000 people.

On 21 June the City of Calgary declared a state of local emergency due to major floods.  Two dozen neighborhoods have been evacuated and most of the estimated 75,000 people have been displaced.  The impact was felt as far afeld as British Columbia, where roads in the mountains are being closed, and Saskatchewan.  

The Tampa Volunteer ministers from the Clearwater Academy have answered the call and are now helping at the Shawnee Relief Center just outside Norman Oklahoma. 

This Center is adjacent to one of the worst hit areas.  The team has been organizing up the donations from the local area as well as assisting clear away debris from the storms.

EVERY VOLUNTEER MINISTER IN THE UNITED STATES NEEDS TO MOBILIZE AND ANSWER THE CALL NOW!

Volunteers needed!

Joava Good the Deputy Natonal Director for Churches of Scientology Disaster Response is on site in Oklahoma and is working with the Govenor of the Shawnee Nation to assist the people affected. The Volunteer Ministers have responded to the request for help from the Shawnee Relief Center to organize and distribute the donations that have been coming in from the local area. Many more volunteers are needed as this is a mammoth task to get these items actually out to the people who have lost their enire homes and are starting from scratch. 

The Volunteer Ministers Advance Inspection team on the scene has an assessment and determined that 100 Volunteer ministers are needed on the ground right now.  What is most needed and wanted is:
