Scouts Read Sacred Texts Worldwide is an event to encourage youth to read their sacred texts in conjunction with the U.S. National Day of Prayer. This event is free to attend, and Scouts are asked to wear their full Class A Uniform.
The event aligns with the values, principles, and spiritual aims of Scouting. It is intended for Scoutmasters, Cubmasters, Advisors, and other adult leaders seeking a simple, respectful way to support a Scout’s Duty to God.
How This Aligns with Scouting
It supports the Scout Oath commitment to duty to God
Encourages personal reflection consistent with BSA principles
Respects each Scout’s family and faith tradition
May be completed individually, with family, or as a unit activity
Requires no religious instruction by the unit leader
Advancement Credit: Participation satisfies the Reverence requirement for Cub Scouts to advance in rank. For Scouts BSA, it satisfies the Scout Spirit requirement to “Tell how you have done your duty to God.”
