Samstag, der 15. Februar 2025 at 11:27The international scouting movement is good in many ways, particularly in instilling good character and moral values. It was a large part of my growing up.
However, I can attest that Sunday observance was and likely still remains a big part of the weekend camping events that occur quarterly. Troops arrive on Fridays and encampments are set up usually before Sabbath starts, and the main activities occur throughout the Sabbath hours. On Sundays, before everyone breaks camp, there is a nondenominational (or perhaps one could say all-denominational) worship service and concluding assembly.
I was always aware of the Sabbath long before I joined the Boy Scouts. I posed these questions of Sabbath vs Sunday and no one had a satisfying answer, HOWEVER, throughout my scouting years, I was regularly exposed to 7th-day Adventism because the scout camp was just a few miles from Berrien Springs, home of Andrews University. God used this proximity to draw me to Him in the observance of His holy day made for us.
Without compromising SDA principles, I can affirm that Pathfinders CAN and SHOULD interact at some level with Scouting so that young minds can be exposed to, and thereby consider, the pillars of our faith – particularly the Sabbath and the state of the dead. Yet we should take care to not give way to the scheduling of activities in a way that would violate a pure and undefiled Sabbath experience.
