The Boy Scouts of America annually celebrates its founding on February 8, 1910, based on the program started by Lord Baden Powell in England on August 1, 1907. Scout Sunday was added to the Scout celebration in the middle 1940s. Scout Sunday is always the Sunday before or on February 8th. The Scout Sunday tradition was started to make people in houses of worship aware of Scouting, and to allow Scouts to live out their "Duty to God" pledged each week. The Scout Law says that a "Scout is Reverent" and the Scouts of all ages promise to do their "Duty to God." These values strengthen youth character in their family, community and faith. Our Scouts will participate in the 12:30pm Mass. We ask God’s special blessing on our boys, their families and their leaders!
All Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts are invited to attend the 12:30 Mass in their uniforms.
