Scouting as a Youth MinistryThe values taught in Scouting are the same found in the Gospels. Scouting is an effective way to help Catholic youths to do their duty to God and to their country. Scouting builds character and teaches devotion to God in an environment that provides wholesome fun under the guidance of strong adult role models. The scouting programs provide a wonderful channel to involve youth in the life of Catholic parishes. |

Religious Emblems - No cost to scouts
Effective immediately, all the religious emblems listed below will be presented to scouts at NO COST. The Catholic Committee on Scouting will pick up the cost of these emblems starting 1/1/2008. These emblems include the Light of Christ, Parvuli Dei, Ad Altare Dei, Pope Pius XII, Family of God, I Live My Faith, Marian Medal and A Spirit Alive. We still need the scouts to send in their applications once they have completed the programs, so we can order the correct number of awards for the biannual Award Mass.
