Eucharistic Revival Activity Program for Scouts
In conjunction with the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops and the National Catholic Committee on Scouting, Troop 719 is participating in the Eucharistic Revival Activity Program. By offering this program, Troop 719 is lending support to the National Eucharistic Revival.
These activities are designed to encourage Scouts to learn more about the True Presence of Christ in the Eucharist. Scouts are required to complete the main central patch requirement (pictured at right) first before the auxiliary activity patches (pictured below) may be displayed.
As Scouts complete each requirement, please contact the Troop 719 Scoutmaster.
Also, if parents or scouts have questions about this program, please email scoutmaster@troop719.org.
