Mission Statement:
The Archdiocesan Catholic Committee on
Scouting and Camp Fire encourages Catholic youth
and adult membership in Boy Scout, Girl Scout,
and Camp Fire USA programs. The Committee
will encourage parishes to become sponsoring
institutions for these organizations. The
Committee also promotes the Religious Awards
available through these organizations as a
current and viable form of youth ministry that
can enhance the faith life of Catholic
youth. The Committee will encourage youth
and adults to actively practice their Catholic
faith in their parish church by regular
attendance at Mass, participation in religious
education, and youth group activities offered by
their parish and the Archdiocesan Office of
Youth and Young Adult Ministry, and through
their Scouting and Camp Fire USA programs. |
