Our global curriculum, Quaker Faith Journey, has now been added to our website! Quaker Faith Journey can be found under fhe “Youth Programs & Resources” tab under “Global Program.”
The program consists of four youth level awards and four coordinating certificates for download.
Currently only available in English, the Spanish translation is being worked on and will be posted when complete.
The “Scouting for Peace” scroll was created at the Friends Committee on Scouting display in the ‘Faith & Beliefs’ area during the 2013 BSA National Jamboree.
The ‘Faith & Beliefs’ area theme at the Jamboree was “Peace” and the members of Friends Committee on Scouting turned to the Friends Peace Testimony for their display. A large scroll was made available for the Scouts (youth), Scouters (adult leaders) and other visitors to leave their messages of peace.
Before the scroll was taken to the Jamboree a Young Friends First Day Class in Maryland wrote “Scouting for Peace” in multiple places along the 168 foot scroll.
In 2016 a video of the scroll was created . . . so that it and it’s many messages could be shared more widely.
