Supplemental Information
A trained religious emblems counselor is required to work on religious emblems. Contact your diocesan Catholic Committee on Scouting to become trained and for ceremony schedules.
Cub, Boy, and Venturing Scouts must be registered with the Boy Scouts of America to work on these religious emblems.
Emblem Books may be obtained most economically and quickly from your local BSA Council Service Center Scout Shops. Alternatively, they can be obtained directly from BSA Supply at www.scoutstuff.org and also through PRAY Publications at www.praypub.org. Also most Diocesan scout committees have a stock of the books available.
The Light is Life book for Boy Scouts belonging to the Eastern Catholic Churches can generally be obtained only from your Eparchial Catholic Committee on Scouting or directly from NCCS at NCCS@netbsa.org.
Contact your Catholic Youth Ministry upon completion. Boy Scout emblems require a Board of Review before completion. Please do not contact the national office to obtain the emblem.
If you have previously earned a religious emblem and lost or damaged it, contact the national office (NCCS@netbsa.org) for replacement options.
