More details and resources, including how to order certain awards/medals, can be found on the praypub.org (Programs of Religious Activities with Youth) web site.
To encourage members to grow stronger in their faith, religious groups have developed the following religious emblems programs. The Boy Scouts of America has approved of these programs and allows the emblems to be worn on the official uniform. The various religious groups administer the programs. Check with your local council service center or contact the religious organization directly to obtain the curriculum booklets.
Den Leaders should complete and submit this document at the monthly Parent-Leader meeting to the Advancement Chairperson so Scouts can have the awards they earned presented at the next Pack Meeting
