ello, my name is Rod L. Griffin, and here is a little bit about myself:

     My mother found Scientology when I was 11 years old. She had been divorced for over three years and was raising three boys by herself. She had gone through a lot of religions to find it. I first went into the church at eleven to receive an auditing action called Objectives (objectives processes un-stick a persons attention from the past and puts the person in present time). Afterwards, I came out a Scientologist. It was the most incredible experience I had ever had!

     I currently am a real estate investor and an author. I have written courses on how to invest in real state and this year (1998) I will be out on the lecture circuit to teach others how to do the same.

      I also recently finished writing my first book on to invest in real state in today's market; it is the first of four more to come and through a recommendation of another well known author I will hopefully have it published by the end of this year (1998). My hobbies are practicing and competing in sport karate; I have been Florida's #1 state champion for two years and am now competing on the international circuit which would mean traveling through-out Europe and Asia. So I am very excited about that! Next year I will go on to the world circuit. Being a State champion had been a childhood dream of mine, which I have reached and now know that I will surpass.
