_________________________________________A U Vr R T IS tM fS T
After I0 years o f inner-city and
interracial community activities and
communiiy service, the Rev. Marge
Green will conclude her ministry in
North and Northeast Portland E f
fective June 30, Rev. Green has re
signed her position as Communiiy
Minister of the Ecumenical parish of
North and Northeast Portland
The resignation marks the com
pletion of one of the most innovative
and creative ministries in the city of
Portland. As a "community minis
ter," her responsibility was not to any
one church Her parishioners includ
ed hundreds o f persons claiming no
membership in any established church,
persons not affiliated with any church
knew "M arg e” as their pastor. Much
o f her "congregation” came not on
Sunday but during the week when in
need o f counselling or help with a
utility bill.
The Rev. Ms. Green first joined the
staff o f M allory Ave. ( Tirtstian Church
tn I975, as Director o f Christian Edu
cation. In I977, she became the
founding pastor and Community
Minister o f the Ecumenical Parish.
The Ecumenical Parish consists of
W ixidlawn and Patton Central Unit
ed Methodist Churches, ihe Mallory
congregation and Ihe Presbytery of
the Cascades. As an ecumenical min
ister, she routinely served three
denominations a, one time.
Under the leadership o f Marge
Green, the Ecumenical Parish estab
lished “ People Are Beautiful" after
school and summer programs for
inner-city children. In I985, "People
Are Beautiful” enters its tenth sum
mer, affecting the lives of 60 children
each year. The program will continue
after Rev. Green’s departure.
Often the only female minister in
the Albina Ministerial Alliance, Rev.
Green received a special recognition
at the annual A M .A . banquet on
May 4. Throughout her ministry.
Marge Green built bridges across
racial and economic lines. She will he
the featured preacher at an interracial
worship service held at Maranatha
Church on Sunday, M ay 26 at 4 p.m.
Upon concluding her ministry in
Portland, Rev. Green will become
Associate Regional Minister o f the
Christian
Church
(Disciples
of
Christ) in West Virginia. A farewell
reception will be beid on June 9, 2:(X)
p.m.
at M allory Ave. Christian
Church, 126 NE Alberta. Ihe public
is invited.
Scientologists™ Are Helping to
Solve the Problems of Education
Am erica is today laced w ith the harsh
tact that tens ot m illions of its citizens
sim ply cannot read or w rite
A ccording to U S D epartm ent of Edu
cation statistics more than 23 m illion
adults
approxim ately one out of seven
are functional illiterates they cannot
read
w rite or fu n c tio n a de q u a te ly
enough to do such simple things as b a l
ance a checkbook or understand a bus
schedule
Each year according to Departm ent of
Education estimates another 2 3 m illion
enter the ranks o, the nation s illiterates
When one looks tor an explanation of
these alarm ing figures the use of p ow er
ful psychiatric drugs in the schools loom s
as a m a p r factor
As tar back as 1970 the C hurch of
S cientology pointed out how child re n as
young as six were being dosed w ith large
am ounts of R italin Dexedrine and other
destructive psychiatric drugs
A report published that year in FREE
DOM the C hurch s independent news
lournal disclosed that some 300.000
Am erican sch oo lch ild ren between six
and twelve years of age were being given
heavy doses ot am phetam ines to "m od
ify ” then overactive classroom behav
ior Up to 30 per cent of the school
child re n in some areas were m aintained
on the m in d -crip p lin g drugs
In case after case over the years, the
C hurch ot S cientology has shown that
psychiatric drugs have dam aging and
d eb ilita ting ettects They have no place in
the schools
S ch oolchildren whose lives have been
w recked by drugs can however be s a l
vaged Tens of thousands of people have
com e ott drugs through the work ot the
C hurch of S cientology and have gone on
to lead happy successful and productive
lives
Psychiatrists and psychologists have
taught that a p e rso n s IQ does not
change S cientology has shown that this
is no, true, a person's IQ and ability can
be increased
S cientology does this
rou tine ly
The C hurch has seen tha, child re n
classified by psychiatrists or p s y c h o lo
gists as "h ype ractive " are in tac, expe-
riencing study d iffic u ltie s w hich can be
resolved in a relatively short period o,
tim e "H yp e ra ctivity" and "le arnin g d is
a b ilitie s ' in c h ild re n are ro u tin e ly
handled in S cientology
w ithout drugs
U s in g the te c h n o lo g y o , s tu d y
researched and developed by S cie n to l
ogy Founder L Ron Hubbard, children
can advance three grade levels in their
reading and m athem atical skills in 20 to
40 hours Many success stories ' from
children, their parents, and their teachers
attest to this
Thousands o, teachers the w orld over
more than 5 000 in Africa alone
have
been trained in the use o, this valuable
technology
In c re a s in g ly , e d u c a tio n a l g ro u p s
schools, and businesses are using this
technology, having seen that the door to
success in lile opens when one can e ffe c
tively study
From the prestigious Delphian School
in Sheridan. Oregon, to the black to w n
ships o, Soweto in Johannesburg South
Africa, and from the executives of major
co rp oratio ns to the individual seeking to
better him sel, hundreds ot thousands o,
people are using this technology
and
doing better in life as a result
Psychiatric tron, groups ob|ect to our
work and to our stand against drugs And
o, course the vested interests they
represent howl in protest when the d e
structive results o, psychiatric dru gg ing
are exposed by the C hurch
As more and more people are treed by
S cientology Irom the harm ful effects o,
drugs, the psychiatrists find fewer and
fewer custom ers for their m ind-num bing
wares As children find the world o, le a rn
ing open to them through the study te c h
nology of S cientology the idea o, taking
drugs becomes unacceptable and even
abhorrent Psychiatrists cannot tolerate
this, as their livelihoods depend upon a
drugged population
Despite psychiatry s attempts to p ro
tect its drug m onopoly however, the
dem and fo r S cientology s study te c h n o l
ogy continues to grow
The education of our children is our
n a tio n s fu tu re S cientology has the
answer to successful education
