LDS Scouting in the Buffalo Grove Illinois Stake

"There is no religious side to the Movement. The whole of it is based on religion, that is, on the realization and service of God.” Lord Baden-Powell

The purpose of compiling the materials on this site is to help “…every man learn his duty, and to act in the office in which he is appointed, in all diligence” (D&C 107:99). “Scouting adds adventure to quorum programs.” Thane J. Packer

Position Descriptions

“The promise of the Scout Oath and the twelve points of Scout Law prepare young men for the 21st century.” President Gordon B. Hinckley

For a brief introduction to LDS Scouting, Click here.“Scouting is an excellent program which develops character in young men. I am grateful for the influence of Scouting in my life and the lives of my sons and grandsons.” President James E. Faust

This site is an attempt to bring together a ready reference of resources available to adult and youth leaders who work with the Aaronic priesthood to help them accomplish the purposes of the Aaronic Priesthood. Since scouting is the activity arm of the Aaronic Priesthood, we have attempted to weave scouting into the training material.
