In Memory of Scouts from Sandy Hook Elementary School

Our Boy Scouts in Troop 1 decided to send cards and an undetermined donation to scout families affected by the Sandy Hook School shooting. The cards being sent were signed by all Scouts and Leaders at the meeting tonight, and depicts a photo of our troop from the Fall Court of Honor.  If your scout was not at the meeting tonight, and would like to sign the card then please try to make next week's meeting to sign it. 

Our Scout Chaplain, Jordon Menne read the following prayer:

Dear Lord,

The children whom we remember today now lie cradled in your love.

Chase Kowalski and Benjamin Wheeler were our brothers in scouting.

Soothe the hearts of their parents and families.

Bring peace to their lives.

Give them strength and courage to face the future.

Help us, as scouts, remember to treasure each moment with our family. 

In life they were Tiger Cubs, in death they were made Eagles

Honored with the Spirit of the Eagle award.

Chase and Benjamin, you will not be forgotten.

We also remember Caroline Previdi, Catherine Hubbard, Dylan Hockley. 

These children were related to a scout in troop 170. 

Let us keep their families in our prayers.

In Jesus’s Name

Amen.

A copy of the prayer is being included in the card.
May the souls of the children and adults who died in the Sandy Hook Elementary School tragedy rest in peace.
