Scouts Read Sacred Texts Worldwide

Most Scouts read at home with their families. In addition to the United States, we had Scouts from Kenya, Nigeria, Puerto Rico, Belgium, Bangladesh, Chile, Singapore, Okinawa, and the Philippines.  We had several Girl Scouts and youth from other religious organizations that weren’t in scouting.

We are making some important changes:

1.    We encourage all youth to read on the evening of May 1 (which is the U.S. National Day of Prayer) or anytime that week that is convenient.

2.     We are suggesting that youth, their families and/or faith leaders decide the specific texts to be read. We suggest youth read for at least 15 minutes but that is up to each individual.

3.    We are inviting other youth organizations including 4-H, American Heritage Girls, Camp Fire, Girl Scouts USA,  International Scouts, Sea Scouts, Trail Life USA, and ALL faith’s youth groups to join us.

We need your help to make this happen.
