Duty to God

12th Point of the Scout Law! A Scout is Reverent

A Scout is reverent. He or she is reverent toward God. He/She is faithful in his/her religious duties and respects the convictions of others in matters of custom and religion.

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.
