Catholic Committee on Scouting & Camp Fire

Light of Christ

Target Audience

  • Registered Tiger or Wolf Cub Scout of Catholic faith, preparing for first communion
  • The Cub must complete the requirements before starting third grade

Emblem Objectives

Light of Christ is a family program for Catholic Tiger Cubs and Wolf Cub Scouts (in the 1st and 2nd grades). The purpose is to help the Cub develop a personal relationship with Jesus. The book is designed for the Cub and his parent or guardian to work together. As the Cub completes each requirement he and his parents must sign off the activity in the workbook.

Where to Buy the Workbook

Workbooks are available from your local BSA Service Center Scout Shop. You should also contact your parish priest or youth minister to find out if your church has a supply of workbooks. The book is designed for the Cub to work together with his parent or guardian as a family.

How to Order the Emblem

When the workbook has been completed the parents must complete the application in the back of the workbook. Be sure to get the Cubmaster and Pastor or Parish Administrotor (Youth Ministry, Office of Evangelization, etc.) signatures. Before ordering emblems, check with your local BSA Council Office to see if your Catholic Committee has made provisions for you to buy the emblem there. If this option is not available or they are out of emblems you may order emblems directly from your local committee by pressing the ORDER EMBLEMS here or the button on the left.
