The Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD) as it currently stands is ineffective and in many instances, supports organizations which do not necessarily support Catholic teaching. It must be shut down and reorganized. Please boycott the CCHD Collection on Sunday, Nov. 23rd. Read more here.

A friend of mine shared with me the National Catholic Committee on Scouting (NCCS) Newsletter.
This issue announced a new patch activity for Cub and Boy Scouts entitled: Footsteps of American Saints." According to the article, it is a program which encourages your to learn about several individuals who have shaped the landscape of Catholicism in America. The are:
St. Issac Jogues
St. Peter Claver
St. John Newmann
St. Elizabeth Ann Seaton
Blessed Kateri Tekakwirtha
If you are a Scout leader or the parent of a Scout, this may be an activity you wish to particpate in.

May I repost this announcement to a few Scouting lists?
If you can give me your name, I will of course attribute the announcement to you and NCCS.
