CONCLUSION

Churches of Scientology and individual Scientologists work tirelessly to improve mankind’s spiritual and moral well-being. Many work in the formal social betterment programs described above. But Scientology’s greatest impact on society may well be at a much more personal level, through the one-on-one interaction that happens every time a Scientologist helps one other person in the community. It is these individual instances of seemingly small benefits that truly affect the spirits of others. Although unsung for the most part, they are certain never to be forgotten by the person helped.
