The Church of Scientology International (http://www.scientology.org/) has expanded the Meet a Scientologist testimonial video series on its YouTube Channel (www.youtube.com/ChurchofScientology) with 10 new documentary videos featuring Scientologists from a wide range of locations and walks of life. The Meet a Scientologist series includes educators, teenagers, skydivers, a golf instructor, hip-hop dancer, IT manager, stunt pilot, mothers, fathers, dentists, photographers, actors, musicians, fashion designers, engineers, students, business owners, and more.
In continuing with the Church of Scientology'ss program to expand its presence in the world'ss largest online video community, the first 50 Meet a Scientologist videos went live online on
the official Church of Scientology YouTube Channel (www.youtube.com/ChurchofScientology) on August 18.
Specially designed for the Internet, the series is based on a core Scientology principle discovered by Scientology Founder L. Ron Hubbard, that understanding is composed of affinity,
reality and communication. Applying these elements - commonly referred to as A-R-C - to increase understanding of Scientologists and Scientology, the online Meet a Scientologist
documentary videos give Church members the opportunity to tell about their lives in personal terms--who they are, what they do, what is important about their life, and how Scientology
helps them achieve their goals. To watch the new videos, visit the Scientology Video Channel (www.youtube.com/ChurchofScientology)
on YouTube.

that includes Internet specialty and video ads airing on MTV, Discovery, ESPN2, The Learning Channel, CNBC, MSNBC, CNN, Fox News, Fox Sports and others.
