Each banner represents on of the 5 areas of focus . Most churches have areas of focus , core values , mission / purpose statements , but these guys really put this into practice . Even as an outsider I was able to discern quickly what matters most to this church . Communicating , to an outsider , that which is the very most important thing can be very challenging in church work .

Why would the church want to communicate their values to an outsider ?

To connect with potential members that have similar beliefs

They want an outsider to see what they have in common with them.

So if we can't go , especially because of a technical hitch , then there's nothing anyone can do , but I will not be a happy bunny . I may have to go use some Scientologists for dart practice . Talking of , I finally found out exactly what Scientology is today , hence my new - found lack of respect for them . Basically , it's just like every other religion I can't fathom , or more to the point , that I can fathom , but can not understand why the followers can not see that their religion is not the divine truth , but adult fairytales created so that people could have a socially acceptable comfort blanket , as it were . Anyway , apparently Scientology is basically Buddhism with aliens , executed with a typical cult format .

Why did the writer say they might use Scientologists for dart practice ?

Because the writer doesn't like Scientology .

The volunteer teachers were a bit of a different matter and I had to keep constantly reminding myself that they have no training and are paid barely anything . The standard of english of the teacher in St3 was very poor and certainly her teaching of english was barely worth doing as the children would be no further forward at the end of St3 as they had been at the start . This I just found very upsetting for the children as they were so desperate to learn and for the fact that from St5 they are supposed to be solely taught in english which they would not be ready for .
