God and Country program
For boy/girl and cub/Jr. girl scouts
One of a scout’s first responsibilities is to learn the “Scout Oath”—a promise which states in part, “I will do my best to do my duty to God . . .” The booklets listed below have been prepared for Christian Science Sunday School pupils who would like to earn the God and Country award which focuses on better understanding this duty to God.
