Worldwide Leadership Training on Scouting

Aaronic Priesthood and Scouting Satellite Broadcast for Adult Leaders

An Aaronic Priesthood and Scouting training meeting was broadcast over the Church satellite system on May 12, 2007. The proceedings of that meeting are available in multiple formats for the benefit of bishops, Young Men presidencies, Scouting leaders, and others with responsibility for the young men of the Church.

There is a great online video of the general authorities discussing the relationship between Scouting in the church. For example, Elder Oaks made the following points:

• focus is not on achievements, it is focused on becoming
• served not entertain
• be aware of the overlap between the church and Scouting
• focus on the spiritual
• integrate the spiritual and to Scouting
  

There is much more than the above and I highly recommend that all Scout Leaders review this video.
