Subject: [Troop139] Ad Altare Dei & Pius XII Religious Awards
Message-ID: <635B0D8CDCAF4F239C17EDE88A3E88AB@W2TTTLT2>

Hi Folks!
We are going to conduct classes for the Ad Altare Dei Catholic Religious
Award on a series of Sunday evenings in conjunction with leaders from
several other Troops.  

 

These classes will be uniformed events and focused on the study of the
Sacraments and discussions on how they are made real and alive in your
everyday life.  If you are interested in this, please let me know on Tuesday
at the Court of Honor.  This is available to all our Scouts who have not yet
completed this award.

 

Further, for those Scouts who already have the Ad Altare Dei Award, you may
pursue the Pius XII award which is a study and discussion of life's
vocational options and how you can apply your interests in serving the Lord
in everyday life.    We will schedule these meetings also on Sunday evenings
but at a different time than those of the Ad Altare Dei.

 

Finally, if we have parents who have an interest in supporting these classes
as discussion group coordinators, leaders or assistants, please let me know
as well on Tuesday.

 

Yours in Scouting!
Thanks & 73,

Gordon Beattie, W2TTT

others who have Amateur Radio Licenses.

Hi Folks!



Here is the current  BSA online advancement status for each Scout of the
Troop except for Kevin Siebert.  
I have Kevin's badges separately, because when we rechartered, the Council
did not switch him to the Troop.  I'll take care of that tomorrow when I go
to Oakland to pick up any needed badges.  

 

Please let me know if there are any gaps or needed corrections in the Ranks
or Merit Badges.

 

See you tomorrow at 6:00 PM for the Pot Luck Supper!

 

Yours in Scouting!

Thanks & 73,

Gordon Beattie, W2TTT

Hi Folks!

Here is a great link from a good Amateur Radio friend of mine, Jim Joyce,
K2ZO who thought it would be great for our Scouts to see how knots are tied
through animation.

Message-ID: <D2678D94C43C4301AE8B1CE4F783E957@W2TTTLT2>

Hi Folks!
We determined on Tuesday that most Scouts had not earned both the Ad Altare
Dei and Pius XII Catholic religious awards and need to take the classes that
will start this Sunday at 7:00 PM in the Lower Church.  

 

The Ad Altare Dei is the study of the Sacraments and how they are made real
in your daily lives.

 

The Pius XII is the study of life's vocations and how you can apply your
God-given gifts through action.

 

Please be in uniform and bring a writing instrument and some paper. 

 

We have instructors lined up from Troops 139 and 1345 to make these classes
interesting and valuable and your attendance is expected.  We will be done
between 8:00 and 8:30.  These classes will run for about seven to eight
weeks on most weekends.

 

Books are provided by the Troop and attendance will be taken each time we
meet.

 

Yours in Scouting!
Thanks & 73,

Gordon Beattie, W2TTT
