All Faith Services on Campouts

We are delighted with the diversity in our troop. We are sponsored by a
Jewish synagogue. We currently have a Methodist Scoutmaster, a Lutheran
Committee Chair and a Unitarian-Universalist senior patrol leader. In our
most recent Eagle project, the Eagle candidate organized his Sunday school
class to solicit contributions, edit, and print a compilation of views on
what it means to be a Roman Catholic for the catechism class in their
church. There are three brothers in our troop who are of the Hindu faith.

With this type of troop, we try to hold all-faith services on Sunday
mornings on our campouts. I would like to create more variety in these
Sunday morning religious observations. I would welcome idea from other
troops on ways you run all-faith services on your troop campouts.
