Scout Sunday

This Sunday (2/12) we will be observing Scout Sunday at the Methodist church (1543 Barbara St., Wrightwood). This is a service honoring Scouting and all we stand for. We will need a Cub Scout to ring the Church Bell, typically this is the youngest scout in attendance. All other Cub Scouts will participate in a Flag Ceremony along with the Boy Scouts. If you are able to attend, please:
· Arrive by 9:30am (Service starts at 10am)
· Wear your Class A uniform (blue shirt with patches)

The Boy Scouts will lead the service (as outlined below) and Cub Scouts will assist with the Bell and Flag Ceremony only:
To start the service, Color Guard to post the Colors and lead the congregation in the Pledge of Allegiance
Boy Scout to lead us in the Scout Oath & Promise
For the 'Children's Message', I would like a member of our flag retirement team to talk about what the team does and why they do it. We will need a Boy Scout to read the Lord's Prayer.
Last year we had 2 scouts read about the History of the BSA. We have been requested to do this again and will need 1 or 2 Boy Scouts for this.
And finally, we need 2 Boy Scouts to read selected scriptures. The scriptures will be provided by Thursday at which point I can get them to the boys doing the reading so they can practice.
We realize this is the same day as our Blue and Gold Ceremony which starts at 4:00pm at the Sunrise Church (separate email reminder will be sent for this event), but we hope you can make it to Scout Sunday as well.
