Adult scouters from across the Rio Grande Valley gathered at the Newman Catholic Student Center in Edinburg on Saturday, August 14 for a day of prayer, fellowship, and reflection on Scouting as youth ministry.
The first-time event, sponsored by the Diocese of Brownsville Catholic Committee on Scouting, featured presentations by Nationally-known youth ministry speaker-writer Angel Barrera from the Center for Ministry Development. A former director of the Diocese of Brownsville Office of Youth Ministry, Barrera challenged the audience of Scoutmasters, Cubmasters, committee members and other volunteer scouters to look upon themselves as youth ministers and upon Scouting as a privileged means of evangelizing youth and families for Christ. Using both scripture and lived experience, Barrera focused on the importance of accompanying youth and walking with them on their journey towards adulthood. A father of five, Barrera is just beginning the journey of Scouting with his children.
The day concluded with Mass presided over by Fr. Joe Luis Hernandez. Each participant received a patch created by the National Catholic Committee on Scouting and blessed by Fr. Joe proclaiming that Scouting is youth ministry.
Day of Reflection this past Saturday drew many leaders from the Rio Grande Council. In preparation for September 11th Religious Emblem (Youth) Retreat, Catholic Scout Leaders learned how Scouting is an important ministry to practice the Catholic faith for the common good in our local communities.
Stay tuned for more information on Sept 11th Religious Emblems (Youth) Retreat.
