Cub Scouts must obtain the specific workbook for their particular religious affiliation. Catholic and Protestant workbooks are available for sale at the pack meetings ($7 each). Should you wish to obtain a workbook for another faith please contact our religious emblem coordinators, Matt and Kwitka Peratt, at [email protected] or (323) 252-9117. Once the workbooks are completed you and your Cub Scout will need to schedule an appointment with your priest/minister/rabbi or other religious leader to go over the workbook and get them signed. After that you should turn them into Matt/Kwitka. All workbooks will be returned to you. For Catholics, the workbooks must be turned in by October 1st in order that the award can be presented at a special mass held the following January. Please allow enough time to finish the workbook and schedule the required meeting with your priest.
