Scout Day is held by Boy Scouts of America to recognize contributions of church young people and adults to Scouting.
A Scout is reverent: Aurora Methodists celebrate Scout Sunday
Scouts represented Troop 21 and Troop 104 at Living Waters Church in North Aurora. Four assistant scoutmasters participated from Troop 21.
Scouts and adult leaders served as ushers, read scripture, led prayers and collected donations during the service.
“Through a year-round program, it affects character, citizenship, and personal fitness. But the success of Scouting depends on volunteers, who serve in a variety of leadership roles so that our young people may benefit from Scouting. We salute the splendid volunteers who serve as Cubmasters, Scoutmasters, and Venturing Advisors, and in other positions of leadership.”
