We will build a cinder block barbecue and wooden picnic benches, because we’re working with heavy lumber and masonry please wear suitable attire such as boots, jeans, shirts you don’t mind messing up, and gloves. If you have protective eyewear, please bring it.
Screw drivers, hammers, any tools that can help along with the project. We may not use all but it’s better to be prepared.
The address is 7405 New Falls Road, Levittown, PA 19055. Please park in the back as this is an active Station and we don’t want to be in the way.
Breakfast at 9am and lunch at 12:30pm for those who volunteer.
Presented
here is information on the upcoming Religious Emblem class that will be
conducted here at Our Lady of Grace. This is a great opportunity for
Catholic scouts to earn the Ad Altare Dei award.
The purpose of
the Ad Altare Dei (To the Altar of God) program is to help Catholic
Youth of the Roman Rite develop a fully Christian way of life in the
faith community. The program is organized into chapters based on the
seven Sacraments. The seven Sacraments are a primary means toward
spiritual growth.
The most important aspect of the program is
that the Scout grows in his spiritual experience of his relationship to
God and the Church.
This award is open to any youth of the Roman
Catholic Faith who is registered in a BSA Troop or Crew. The program is
designed for youth 13-14 years old, but older youth may also use this
program. The youth must be an active member of a unit for 6 months, and
have completed 6th grade before starting the program.
We will
begin with an introduction meeting on July 28th at 1:00pm in the Lourdes
room located in the back of Our Lady of Grace Church. Classes are
scheduled to run from August to December on the second and fourth
Sundays of the month, each following the 11:45am mass. The program ends
with a retreat in March, with the awards to be presented at the Scout
Sunday mass at the Cathedral in April.
I encourage all eligible
scouts to participate and earn this award. If you are interested,
please contact me directly at my email address: maryannandcharlie@verizon.net.

Hello Troop 82!
Just a reminder, we have ADOPT A HIGHWAY on NESHAMINY STREET Tomorrow/ Saturday, March 9 at 8:30 AM. Meet on Michelle Court to sign in, get gloves, vest and trash bags.
Please wear long pants, long sleeve shirts or coat, and CLOSED-TOED Shoes. See you in the morning! Thank you.
Our next fundraiser of the year will be Fritz’s Sticky Bun Sale at all masses the weekend of March 2nd & March 3rd.
As
always we ask everyone to help out at least one and preferable two
masses. We need SCOUTS at every door (not parents) – people want to
support scouting so they need to see the SCOUTS at the doors in Class B
Uniforms. ALSO, if you sign up for masses it is very important you show
up. We have 5 doors to cover at church and if I don’t have enough
scouts, that is profits loss for the troop.
If
you want to sell outside of mass at work/school or to family members
feel free to do so. Just keep a count and let me know how many of each
kind no later than Sunday 24th by noon and what mass you will pick them
up at.
I’m attaching a flyer to help you sell which provides all the details. Flier is 2 pages. Stickybuns are $6.50 a box.
