Upcoming Youth Trainings

 

Foxfire: Youth Leadership Training

Date:    June 6 - 13, 2015 (Saturday Morning - Saturday Morning) - Online Registration

Additional Resources:  Click Here for Flyer

Foxfire will take what a Scout learned at National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT) and bring it to a whole new level.  Scouts will work as a crew to complete many challenges put before them, including Dutch oven cooking, tomahawk throwing, black powder rifle shooting, forging, and other team building games and activities.  Beyond developing a better understanding of the leadership skills taught at NYLT, Scouts will gain knowledge that will help them in the “real world” including resume writing and interview skills.  Scouts that have completed Foxfire are sought after for positions on camp and event staffs due to Foxfire’s emphasis on staff development.  Foxfire is a unique experience that should be the goal of any youth in our council.

To attend Foxfire, a youth must be 14 years old, have completed NYLT, and if a Boy Scout, have completed Star rank. There is only one course of Foxfire available, so sign up early.

Positive Quote & Prayer

“A boy is supremely confident of his own power, and dislikes being treated as a child.”

National Day of Prayer and Cinco de Mayo Celebrations

PIA
There’s a good chance that you already know this Sunday is Cinco de Mayo…the fifth of May. It commemorates the Mexican army’s victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862 and has limited significance in Mexico itself. The date is observed mostly in the United States as a celebration of Mexican heritage and pride.

[PIA] Just three days earlier, on May 2nd, another holiday occurs…the National Day of Prayer, first proclaimed in 1952. 1983 Ronald Reagan said, “From General Washington’s struggle at Valley Forge to the present, this Nation has fervently sought and received divine guidance as it pursued the course of history. This occasion provides our Nation with an opportunity to further recognize the source of our blessings, and to seek His help for the challenges we face today and in the future.” In 1988, the law was amended so that the National Day of Prayer would be held on the first Thursday of May. Two stated intentions of the National Day of Prayer were that it would be a day when adherents of all great religions could unite in prayer and that it may one day bring renewed respect for God to all the peoples of the world. (Courtesy of Wikipedia)

Cinco de Mayo celebrations will spring up all over the country…let’s face it, these colorful fiestas are fun. There’s the tacos, the margaritas, the cerveza, the music…what’s not to like? In truth, few people attend these events with any intention of attaching historical significance to them. It’s just a good party.

In contrast, coming together as a nation in unified prayer for our leaders, our troops and our future is staggeringly significant. Matthew 18:19 says, “I also tell you this: If two of you agree here on earth concerning anything you ask, my Father in heaven will do it for you.” It is important that we unite and agree in prayer, according to God’s best.
