To Scientology Volunteer Ministers Valencia: On behalf of the Benetússer Police Department, I extend our sincere thanks and respect for your outstanding contributions during the recent catastrophic floods that affected our city. In a time of crisis, you exemplified courage and determination by stepping forward to help when it was needed most. Your efforts (clearing mud and debris, removing over 2,000 vehicles affected by the floods and providing essential food and supplies to over 40,000 people in total) were nothing short of heroic. As police officers, we understand the importance of teamwork and community support in overcoming challenges. Your dedication and resilience were instrumental in stabilizing a difficult situation and restoring hope to so many people affected by this disaster. Your activities became a vital part of the collective effort to serve our citizens, and we are proud to have worked alongside such committed individuals, as you give full meaning to the word volunteer, with commitment and hard work. Your actions not only helped the affected populations recover, but also reinforced the strength and unity of the citizens. Please know that your selfless service has not gone unnoticed and will be remembered as an inspiration to all for your extraordinary service to society. We are proud to have known you. Thank you so much for everything.
