“Today signifies a watershed moment for the city of Clearwater, home to our spiritual headquarters. We have established international footholds to address drug abuse, illiteracy, immorality and human rights. We have worked in the hot spots of the world—the major cities of Earth. And traveling the globe, volunteering their time to spearhead those humanitarian programs, are the parishioners of our Flag Spiritual Headquarters. So, bearing in mind that’s what emanates from here, we now bring the full breadth of our programs to this city, the city in which we live, the city that is our home—Clearwater, Florida.”—Mr. David Miscavige, Chairman of the Board Religious Technology Center © 2024 Church of Scientology International.
