Girls from five scout troops earn the 'My Promise, My Faith' pin

MONROE — Girls from five Monroe Girl Scout troops received the Girl Scout “My Promise, My Faith” pin at Sacred Heart Church on Sunday, April 14, during the children’s Mass.

The pin recognizes how Girl Scouting and faith offer similar ideas about how to act and how Girl Scouting can tie into one’s faith. It can be earned annually on any Girl Scout level.

The girls learned how Mother Teresa of Calcutta used the line in the Girl Scout Law “considerate and caring” in her life. With the assistance of the Rev. Tom Byrnes, Sacred Heart’s pastor, the girls reviewed three quotes by Mother Teresa and participated in a skit, which portrayed how Mother Teresa was “considerate and caring” to all.

The scouts explored the similarities from the part of the Girl Scout Law and how to make a commitment to live this way following the example of Mother Teresa. Recipients are:
