Religion In Life Emblem
This award is designed specifically for Scouts youth (and in some cases leaders too) to work with their spiritual advisor to meet requirements that explore their own religious backgrounds and beliefs. Cub leaders should make cubs aware of this award, as it can be tied to school work and school religious education studies.
Outcomes
Cubs develop knowledge of their own specific religious faith/denomination.1
Requirements
If the requirements for the Religion in Life Emblem have been set by your religious organization, ask your spiritual advisor or leader to help you earn this award.
