Join me in commending the following very important people who "played the game" and moved up to the next higher honor status this week for the benefit of the Building Expansion Fund:
Robert Bein, Deputy ED of the OT Committee continues to produce on every front, and this week became our newest "Midwest Mover and Shaker" ($35,000). Now that's a level we have not seen mentioned in a while! Very Well Done!
David Newberger and Nancie Ploechl made a donation to reach the "Second City Savior" ($10,000) level. Outstanding! You will be hearing more from these two as they look to re-establish and improve the promotion and marketing programs of the Big Shoulders Campaign!
Chuck and Cindy Szajkovics made things go right, and have just attained the level of "Third Coast Crusaders" ($5,000). Fantastic! Look for the Szajkovics family to make a big move on the Bridge this summer at Flag!
Next we had progress at the "1871 Club" level. John Guerin, Thomas Smyth, and Rudy and Marian Lobo all hit this level just this past week. Bravo!
Next we had a new "Chicago Pioneer" this week--JoAnne Linsell. Appreciate having you on board!
Finally, we had some additional flows from two of our faithful: Sally Voss and Debbie Schwartz! Thank you for your constant willingness to help!
There you have it! All the above should be warmly acknowledged when you see them next.
Now it's onto the next week...!
For those of you who are unable to move up a whole level right now, how about making a difference with a FLOW? $1,000, $500, $250-- it all adds up!
Just how much of a problem could this be to each of you?
One of my favorite processes on Grade 1 was "Invent something worse than______".
I wish I could run this process as a Group Process at an event sometime, adding "making a donation" to the blank. Think about it. There would be some serious line charging I bet.
Being part of religious movements in the not so distant past included human sacrifice, being pilloried, forced relocation, abstinence, stake burnings, you name it!
Are you picking up what I'm laying down here?
Doing a flow now may not make you feel "comfortable," but it's not nearly as uncomfortable as it could be and has been!
Let's remember LRH's words from HCOPL 14 March 1982 Financial Irregularities:
"I have been researching upper OT levels and I can tell you this very plainly: If Scientology doesn't make it worldwide, you've had it--yes, I mean you.
One is not working for just this life. He is working for any future life at all. It isn't a matter of "What can I make on the First Dynamic.'" It's "What can I make for the Third and Fourth?"
Whether one has any reality on Scientology or not--he will, once dead, oh yes, he will!
This is not a threat or curse. This is about the most friendly advice anyone ever gave."
So why don't we all take this friendly advice, and save ourselves a big headache down the road.
Chicago needs an Ideal Org, but first we need a building, but before that we need a pile of money, and the first step in getting a pile of money is for you to make a flow!
Capiche?
As always, our operators are standing by...

"Imagine a church so dangerous, you must sign a release form before you can receive its "spiritual assistance." This assistance might involve holding you against your will for an indefinite period, isolating you from friends and family, and denying you access to appropriate medical care. You will of course be billed for this treatment - assuming you survive it. If not, the release form absolves your caretakers of all responsibility for your suffering and death.
Welcome to the Church of Scientology."
