The Church of Scientology of Malmö opened its new home with an invitation to all to find out for themselves the answer to the often asked question, “What is Scientology?” Thousands of parishioners and dignitaries attended.

The new Church not only provides greatly expanded facilities for religious training, services and counseling, it also enables the Church to bringScientology’s international social reform and betterment programs to the city on a much larger scale.

“Our doors are open to everyone,” said the Malmö Church’s president, Stig Andersson. “We want everyone to come in, tour our exhibition or attend an open house and find out for themselves who we are and what we do.”

The new Church of Scientology of Malmö represents four decades of growth in Sweden. A group of students from Lund University founded the first Church of Scientology in Sweden in 1969.

The new Church of Scientology of Malmö is a reflection of the rapid expansion of Scientology today. Each of Scientology’s nearly 8,000 churches, missions, and groups, active in 164 nations, is dedicated to achieving the Aims of Scientology — a civilization without insanity, without criminals and without war, where the able can prosper and honest beings can have rights, and where man is free to rise to greater heights.

The Church of Scientology of Malmö offers tours seven days a week from 9:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. For more information on the Church and its programs, visit www.scientology.org or call +46 (0)40 537580.
