A Scout is reverent.

All Scouts show this by being faithful in their duty to God. Some go further and give special service. This can qualify them for a religious emblem. Such an emblem is not a Scouting award; however Cub Scouts do recognize the award after it has been earned in the Scout's church. The award itself is conferred on a Scout by his religious leader. Each faith has its own requirements for earning its emblem.

Adults can also be nominated for religious awards. Check with your religious leader for more information on how to nominate an adult.

Following are some of the awards that can be earned by our youth attending area churches. Pack 49 has copies of these books available for our Cub Scouts. If your church is not found below, talk to the Cubmaster or Assistant Cubmaster for more information.

In addition, the Religious Emblem Square knot, shown above, may be worn on the uniform over the left pocket by youth or adults who earned any of the religious awards. One or more miniature devices are affixed to the knot to indicate which level(s) of the award was earned.
