Church of Scientology Advanced Organizations and Saint Hill religious colleges provide services to parishioners around the world. Shown above is the Church of Scientology Saint Hill, East Grinstead, England.

hile the Class V Churches of Scientology minister to their parishioners on a daily basis, there are higher level Churches of Scientology that minister more advanced auditing and training services of Scientology to parishioners on a less regular basis.
These Churches of Scientology that minister higher levels of training and auditing are called Saint Hills (for training) and Advanced Organizations (for auditing) and are located in centralized areas.
Scientologists travel to them when they have reached this particular level of The Bridge and typically spend an extended period of time at the church while receiving these Scientology religious services on an intensive basis. Once these individuals complete the particular level of training or auditing, they return home and continue to participate with their local Church of Scientology.
The ministry of the advanced services of Scientology requires a far higher level of training for Church staff members. As more of these are trained and as the religion grows and more parishioners move up the levels, more advanced level organizations will be created to make these services easily accessible.
