cheffy Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 We have a Scout who would like to be the Chapains Aid. I don't have a problem with it as I'm sure he will do a great job and be very responsible. The problem is, is that our Troop Chaplain just moved and no one wants to take over the spot. So can we have a Chaplains Aid without a Troop Chaplain? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleInKY Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 We do. I serve as Chaplain when needed. I hope to have a dedicated chaplain someday. But, until then, we do what we can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperParatus Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 Right or wrong, our Troop had a Chaplain's Aide for two years before we were able to recruit a reliable Chaplain. The scouts serving in this position did have an adult mentor - albeit not designated as a Troop Chaplain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldGreyEagle Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 Actually I cant think of a time when a Troop needs a Chaplains Aide more than when said Troop is sans Chaplain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FatherJim Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 Yea, I totally agree that the best time for a Chaplain Aide is when there is no Chaplain available. The NLAS web site is very good. I normally volunteer for a week at our summer camp to be the Chaplain and am always surprised at how many of the troops don't even consider having chaplain aids, nor are they really aware of the religious awards program. But then that gives me another little mission at summer camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
