Scientology in Europe: Spreading Festive Cheer with a Purpose

Brussels, Brussels, Belgium, 28th Nov 2024 – As the festive season approaches nearer and nearer in Europe, the Church of Scientology is planning activities to enrich the festivities with meaning and significance. They are engaging in activities such as advocating for rights and preventing drug abuse aiding children in need and fostering a culture of behavior during this time of generosity to positively impact their communities.

Inspired by holiday events at their Los Angeles headquarters and Saint Hill in the UK—formerly the home of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard—members across Europe are engaging with local communities to address pressing social issues while spreading festive joy.

Helping Valencia Recover from Devastation

This year in Valencia, Spain, the Church is exemplifying its dedication to serving the community. Volunteer Ministers swiftly responded to the aftermath of floods working around the clock to clean up the mud from residences, roads and public spaces, provide resources and provide emotional solace to families with the purpose of rebuilding their livelihood. 

In an effort to uplift those most impacted by the events the Volunteer Ministers arranged a toy collection drive, for children who suffered losses in the flooding incidents. Volunteers from across Spain are generously donating toys and funds to bringing some joy and comfort to families enduring the difficult circumstances. This initiative reflects a desire to assist children in finding moments of joy and normalcy amidst the holiday season.

Festive Giving Across Europe

In cities like Madrid, Paris, Brussels, Berlin, Copenhagen, and Milan among others, Scientologists are embracing the holiday spirit by hosting events that blend celebration with community service. These gatherings often feature talks on human rights, drug awareness, and ethical principles, alongside fun activities for children. By bringing people together in a festive atmosphere, they inspire there a meaningful action on important social issues.

The Church’s programs also align with its global initiatives, including The Way to Happiness, Youth for Human Rights, and Drug-Free World. These campaigns encourage kindness, integrity, and responsibility—values that resonate strongly during the holiday season.

A Focus on Ethical Living

A significant part of the Church’s holiday outreach is the promotion of The Way to Happiness, a non-religious moral guide written by L. Ron Hubbard. Its 21 principles for ethical living, such as “Love and Help Children” and “Be Competent,” are shared at events to encourage acts of compassion and positive change. Volunteers often distribute copies at gatherings, inviting people to incorporate these principles into their daily lives and New Year’s goals.

Supporting Children and Families in Need

The Church of Scientology places a special emphasis on helping children during the holiday season. In many European cities, parishioners organize toy drives and gift distributions in partnership with local charities, providing also essentials like clothing, school supplies, and holiday meals for families who are struggling.

The Church’s holiday activities in Europe echo the festive celebrations at its Los Angeles headquarters, where families gather for an annual holiday lighting festival. With attractions like ice skating, face painting, and visits from Santa Claus, the event is dedicated to fostering joy and community spirit.

Scientologists aim to do more than just light up city streets—they strive to brighten lives. By combining festive celebrations with meaningful outreach, church parishioners have through decades encouraged acts of kindness and a shared commitment to building a better future for everyone.

For Scientologists, the holiday season is about more than festivities. It’s an opportunity to give back, support those in need, and leave a positive impact on the world.
