Dear Rev. Harrison: Well said and true to the faith and theological teaching of the church. We, after all, do have an obligation as members of any congregation to support our youth. If, we have a current BSA or TL group associated with the congregation, then it becomes a true moment to teach and develop the theology of Christ in the Church. Kudos to you and everyone involved in coming to this very brave and honorable decision to allow food for thought for all the congregations involved with the BSA and TL. My own brother was an Eagle Scout and there was a BSA group in Mt. Pleasant, IA that occasionally utilized the sanctuary for their Eagle Scout honorees. I have also thought how sad that society has come to this and basically will end up destroying such a great traditional to train leaders of our nation. Many former president's were also Eagle Scouts. God's blessings to you as you continue to lead the LCMS through tough times in today's world.
