So, if you, the Scientologists of Buffalo, have previously felt like a forgotten footnote in the Scientology world, then let's make that "footnote" one we all forget. Because, this day is yours and you are writing the history books. For what you have created is a "Class V Church of Scientology" that now sets the standard for every other one to follow.

With that comes a responsibility: To work together and serve as an inspiration to others. For if evil, pain, bewilderment and injustice are fundamental facts of today's existence, let's all of us demonstrate with a stronger conviction that something can be done about it. Because, we believe in man. We know there is hope. And, because we can help, working together we will make a difference. In that light, and in recognition of this new church and the tomorrow it will bring, it is my honor to present you with this: It begins with these words from our Founder:

'All great cathedrals began their building by the placement of a single stone.

The building unit of a great society is the individual.'

"To the executives, staff and public of Buffalo, in commemoration of the grand opening of your new church and all you will do to build that great society."

Thank you very much.

To LRH!
