A Scout is reverent. He is reverent toward God. He is faithful in his religious duties and respects the convictions of others in matters of custom and religion. To encourage members to grow stronger in their faith, religious groups have developed the religious emblems programs. The Boy Scouts of America has approved these programs and allows the emblems to be worn on the official uniform. BSA has a Square Knot for youth who complete a religious program and a different Square Knot for adult recognition. The various religious groups administer the programs and recognition.
Baptist partner with the P.R.A.Y. Program to provide a Bible-based religious emblems program. This program offers 5 separate youth Religious Awards. Each program is designed for a specific age group.
