The holiday season is in full swing. Pastors, worship leaders, and the church will be hopping. It is a wonderful time of the year. Spend it with family and friends, and make new ones as you serve.
When January comes, prepare for a community celebration: Scout Sunday. Feb. 8th, 2026, is the official Scout Sunday for The United Methodist Church. Though context and commitments make it a day that can be celebrated whenever the church agrees.
A Troop in Springfield joins their church on the first Sunday of February, as the Pastor has seen the vision. “We celebrate on the first Sunday as Scouts serve. Any Scout who wants to help with communion is welcome to serve.” Watching Scouts in uniform offer the means of grace to the church and community is a heart-stirring witness.
Here are some other ideas for how Scouts can join the joy of a Sunday worship.
