Boys and young men at Mary Mother of God Church in Harrison are learning outdoor skills, leadership and above all, values of the Catholic faith, thanks to the establishment of Trail Life USA Troop 14:1.
Trail Life USA is a national Christian-based scouting organization that focuses on a mission to “guide generations of courageous young men to honor God, lead with integrity, serve others, and experience outdoor adventure,” according to traillifeusa.com.
While there are 800 churches across the country that charter a troop and 12 troops in Arkansas, Troop 14:1, based on the Bible verse John 14:1, is the only Catholic-chartered troop in the state.
