There are Religious awards that all Cub and Boy Scouts can earn. These awards are normally earned working with the Scouts own Church with materials specifically for his religion. Normally these awards are given out during a Sunday service in front of the Church congregation.  For information on the God and Me and God and Family look below. For all the details and information on the different programs visit the PRAY website.

Medals for Protestant

Eligibility Guidelines: Girls and boys in grades 1, 2 & 3 are eligible to participate in the God and Me program even if they do not belong to a Girl Scout, Boy Scout or Camp Fire group (church youth and Sunday School members are eligible to participate in this program). Each participant must have his or her own copy of the Student Workbook. A pastor's signature is required on the application/order form. Curriculum: The new God and Me curriculum is designed to help children become best friends with Jesus and tell their story of “God and Me” together. Children will make a game in each lesson and keep their games in a GAMEBOX (God And Me Exploring BOX). These games will reinforce the Bible lessons and provide opportunities for families to explore God's love together. There are four lessons: 1. God Created Me Children will study the creation story and learn that God was pleased with all creation. They will acknowledge God as Creator and give praise to God. 2. Jesus is God's Gift to Me Children will learn of God's love through Jesus. As they tell parallel stories of their own birth and the birth of Jesus, they will proclaim that Jesus was born to be their Savior. 3. I Can Talk with God Children will learn how important prayer was to Jesus and that God wants them to pray. They will learn four parts of prayer to help them share their thoughts with God. Children will be required to memorize the Lord's Prayer. 4. Because God Cares for Me, I Can Care for Others As children learn to lean on God as their Good Shepherd, they will be challenged to reach out and be “good shepherds” to those around them. A typical schedule for completing the God and Me curriculum might include five different sessions (an introductory meeting plus four sessions to complete the four lessons). Adult Mentor Program Parents have the option of enrolling in the God and Me Adult Mentor Program. In this program, the parent is an active learning participant alongside the child. The parent would have lessons and projects to complete in the Mentor Workbook just like the child, and then both parent and child would work on the student curriculum together. The mentor program is designed to provide the adult with additional opportunities to model his or her Christian faith and to help a young child talk about his or her belief in God   Medals for Protestant Eligibility Guidelines: Girls and boys in grades 4 & 5 are eligible to participate in the God and Family program even if they do not belong to a Girl Scout, Boy Scout or Camp Fire group (church youth and Sunday School members are eligible to participate in this program). Each participant must have his or her own copy of the student workbook. A pastor's signature is required on the application/order form. Curriculum: The new God and Family curriculum is designed to help youth understand the importance of family and God’s role in a healthy family. The God and Family Program provides an opportunity for young people and their families to explore their faith together. Children will compare families and “pizza.” The six steps for making pizza will be compared to God’s plan for strengthening families. The pizza theme is meant to give students a concrete, “hands-on” model on which to build their understanding of God’s love for their families. They will make a pizza as they study how families can grow together in God’s love. Here are the six steps and the Biblical lessons that they teach: 1. Crust-Foundation – We are God’s Family Every pizza needs a crust or foundation. Families need foundations, too. Families need to build their foundations on God and on God’s love. 2. Sauce – Family Heritage, Spiritual Heritage Every pizza has sauce (which has simmered over time). Like the sauce, a family’s heritage grows over time. A family’s heritage, especially its Christian heritage, is an important part of its identity. 3. Toppings – Our Talents and Gifts Strengthen Our Families The toppings on a pizza make each pizza unique. Like the toppings, the individual members of a family bring unique gifts and talents that strengthen and make their family special. 4. Cheese – In God’s Family We’re Loved No Matter What! Because We’re Loved, We Follow Rules The cheese on a pizza covers everything and holds it together. Families need to be held together, too. Christian rules and guidelines can help families relate to each other and live together as God’s family. 5. Bake – Being in God’s Family Helps Us When Things Are Tough When pizza comes out of a hot oven, it’s better than ever! Families can be like pizza: by relying on God, families can come through the heat of tough times and be even stronger. 6. Eat, Share, Enjoy! – In God’s Family, We Share as a Response to God’s Love Pizza tastes good: it nourishes our bodies and satisfies our hunger. Pizza is fun to share: everybody loves a pizza party. Families are like pizza: they need to provide spiritual nourishment for family members, and they need to share the good news of Jesus Christ with those around them! In each lesson, students will meet one or more Bible families and complete exercises and participate in activities to help them relate the Bible stories to their own lives. Students will write “recipe cards” to summarize what they have learned and they will create a pretend pizza to represent what makes a healthy family. Students will also have activities to do at home with their families. A typical schedule for completing the God and Family curriculum might include seven different sessions (an introductory meeting plus six sessions to complete the six lessons). Adult Mentor Program Parents have the option of enrolling in the God and Family Adult Mentor Program. In this program, the parent is an active learning participant alongside the child. The parent would have lessons and projects to complete in the Mentor Workbook just like the child, and then both parent and child would work on the student curriculum together. The mentor program is designed to provide the adult with additional opportunities to model his or her Christian faith and to help a young child talk about his or her belief in God.
