Scout Sunday at Riverside Presbyterian Church – Sunday, February 12

Riverside Presbyterian Church, the charter organization for Troop 24 and Pack 24, invites all scouts, leaders and scout families to attend Worship in celebration of the long standing relationship between RPC and the Boy Scouts on February 12th at 10:00 am.  The service will be followed by coffee fellowship hosted by Troop 24.

The Troop 24 Committee encourages scouts and their families to attend the Scout Sunday service.  It is an chance for many of our scouts to experience worship in a place of different denomination or faith.  And an occasion for us to show our appreciation to the members of RPC for their support and use of the church for 78 years.

Scouts who attend will also have the opportunity to earn service hours by participating in either the worship service or in fellowship. Consider helping in one of these roles. There are many:

  • Ushers: greet people, hand out bulletin, and pass the offering plate. (need 4-6 scouts)
  • Liturgist: Read the scripture lesson and offer a prayer ( 1-2 scouts)
  • Speakers willing to speak about their scouting experiences and what it has meant to them.  This is ideal for a scout working on their Communication Merit Badge that still needs to complete requirement #3 or a scout who is comfortable speaking in front of people. (need 2-3 scouts)
  • Fellowship Set up (9:00 – 10:00):  Make coffee and lemonade, prepare plates of treats, set out plates, cups and saucers, etc. (need 4 scouts)
  • Fellowship Clean up (12:00 – 12:30): run dishwasher, wash serving plates and coffee pots and wipe tables. (need 4 scouts)

Scouts willing to help – sign up here

We hope all scouts who attend bring something to share during fellowship (e.g. coffee cake, cookies, fruit, cheese & crackers, etc.)

Scouts and Leaders should wear their Class A uniform and merit badge sash.  If you have a Girl Scout in the family, she is welcome to wear her uniform.  We hope to see you there.

If you have any questions please contact Carrie Staubus or Susan Lynch
