Catholic Scouting
Boy Scouts, Girls Scouts and Camp Fire programs for Catholic youth
Thousands of boys and girls in our Catholic parishes and schools learn wonderful skills and attitudes through the scouting programs. To add to these programs, the National Catholic Committee on Scouting (NCCS) and the National Catholic Committee on Girl Scouts and Camp Fire offer religious emblems and medals to help incorporate faith. ========================================== Attention All Catholic Scouts: The Youngstown Diocese’s Catholic Committee on Scouting is announcing its invitation to all Diocesan scouts, both male and female, to take part in earning their religious award for this upcoming year. There are awards for every age group within the Scouting organizations: Cubs, Boys, Girls and Camp Fire, with some only requiring instruction from a parent or guardian. Other awards require attending local sessions, with Classes scheduled to start in Sept. and/or October and available throughout the Diocese. If you wish to learn more about what your Catholic belief offers please contact Bob Granchie at 330-755-7205 or at [email protected] (Using “Religious Awards” in the subject line). Please consider taking this opportunity to deepen your faith. It’s an awesome way to combine both the Holy Spirit and the Scouting Spirit within your lives. And receive a cool medal and patch to boot! God’s blessings. ========================================= FOR MORE INFORMATION Please contact these leaders of the Diocesan Catholic Committee on Scouting (DCCS): Fr. Terrence J. Hazel Diocesan Scout Chaplain, Pastor Emeritus, St. Michael Parish [email protected] Bob Granchie Diocese Chairperson 330-755-7205 [email protected] |
