The Baptist Faith and Being a Scout in the Scout Programs of Adventure Scouts USA |
The Scout Programs of Adventure Scouts USA encourage our Scouts to have a spiritual approach to life. We provide the leadership to support the growth and character development of our co-ed membership and the greater community. We accomplish this by providing contemporary skill-oriented activities that enrich individuals on a non-discriminatory basis. We put principles of mutual respect into practice through FUN social activities, enhancing character as instilled by parents, personal achievement, learning by doing, and related educational programs promoting good character in our members and the greater community.
Our teams may be sponsored by Baptist churches and organizations. Our Team Sponsors are those who work for the benefit of youth. Together, the Scout Programs of Adventure Scouts USA along with Baptist Churches and organizations can increase participation by Baptist families, and strengthen Baptist values through character education, and a sense of belonging. We welcome Baptist Scouts and members and enable fulfillment of their religious responsibilities. We assist our Baptist Scouts and members to integrate their faith into everyday life and help families to share their faith on their child’s journey of faith. Our Scout Programs promote strong families and strengthen family values. Baptists believe in embracing others in the world as their neighbor, and we instill compassion in our Scouts for the circumstances of others.
