ON THE WINGS OF EAGLES: CALLING EPISCOPALIAN SCOUTS IN CIRCLE TEN

 

St. Lukes Episcopal Church, Dallas, is proud to announce ON THE WINGS OF EAGLES, a retreat program for Episcopalian Scouts wanting to learn more about our faith and traditions and to complete work towards the God and Church or God and Life religious awards in an overnight program of fun and fellowship, worship, and activities with other Scouts from across the Diocese.

 

ON THE WINGS OF EAGLES will be held at the new All Saints Camp & Conference Center at Lake Texoma (right next door to Camp James Ray) on Friday and Saturday, February 25-26, 2005. Scouts and Scouters from across the Diocese of Dallas are invited to gather at the camp the evening of Friday, the 25th, for registration, orientation, and opening activities. Saturday will be a full program of activities, ending with a celebration of the Holy Eucharist at which the Rt. Rev. James M. Stanton, Episcopal Bishop of Dallas, is scheduled to preside, preach, and present program awards.

 

This Retreat is open to all Episcopalian Boy Scouts and Scouters across Circle Ten Council. The cost for this overnight Adventure in Faith is $25.00 per Scout and includes supper on Friday, breakfast and lunch on Saturday, lodging Friday night, retreat materials, and a special ON THE WINGS OF EAGLES patch.

Congratulations on taking a big step in bringing aScout's Duty to God to a new level of visibility.

 

Plan your work & work your plan; and remember the audience. Its okay to enjoy a religious retreat; and you never get a second chance to make a first impression. Enough platitudes.

 

I'm sure that everyone here will keep you in our prayers as your group prepares to offer one of Scoutings gifts to the young people of your area.
