Daniel Henke December 8, 2013 For my field trip I chose to visit a Catholic Church St Peter located in Waldorf, MD. I took my two children with me and while driving to the church I explained to them that this was a field trip for my assignment. The look on their faces was priceless.

Ron Hubbard. The conspiracy included a series of thefts from 136 government agencies, foreign embassies and consulates, as well as private organizations critical of Scientology, carried out by church members in more than 30 countries. It was one of the largest attacks on the United States government in history (Operation Snow White, January 2018).

When thinking of Catholicism I envision centuries of practices that have not changed but when it comes to Pope Francis he envisions change and is acting on it.

The exterior of the church I attended did not add to my overall religious feelings. My first impression of this building was the thought of whether or not I was in the right place. The building was plain there is no cross or windows on the outside. It had one small sign on the side of the building that stated it was a church. The architecture did not lend itself to worship. Another observation that I made was it was very different than what I am accustomed to. First off when you walk in the door

Why do firms exist? Why should a particular firm be in business? Call it mission. Call it vision. Call it strategic intent. Whatever it is, a firm needs such a rationale to justify its existence. And that rationale, we believe, is to create value and win. To create value better than rivals can; to contribute to the society in ways that are unique and indispensable.
