Chaplains: The Chaplain is in an ideal position to promote the religious emblems program and encourage Scouts to complete the requirements for the emblem of their Lutheran faith.
Chaplain Aides: The Chaplain Aide is an approved youth leadership position in Scouts BSA troops. The responsibilities of this position include encouraging the spiritual growth and awareness of each member of the troop and assisting the troop chaplain (and adult committee members).
Resource Materials:
The Religious Emblems programs are developed by the national religious organizations to encourage their members to grow stronger in their faith. The scouting agencies have approved of these programs and allow the awards to be worn on the official uniforms, but the emblems are created and administered by the various religious groups.
