A NEW SCIENTOLOGY MISSION IN KYRGYZSTAN
Three hundred miles from the border of China, in the city of Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan, the newest Scientology Mission in Asia has opened in full traditional Kyrgyz style.
The Church of Scientology Mission of Manas is proud of the heritage its name represents. According to legend, over a thousand years ago a great hero named Manas arose and preserved the freedom-loving nation from oppression. The name “Manas” represents justice, honesty, dignity and hope for a better future.
The Grand Opening of the Mission began with the singing of the Kyrgyzstan national anthem, traditional dancing and speeches by local officials, welcoming the Mission to the city.
