Awarding of "Light is Life" Eastern Catholic Scout Emblem

On November 10, 2011, we celebrated a Moleben To Jesus Lover of Mankind, and then my son was awarded the "Light is Life" Emblem". Concelebrating were Fr. Gary Mensinger, Eparchial Scout Chaplain, Mons. John Sekellick, pastor of Holy Ghost Byzantine Catholic Church, Jessup, Pa., and myself. Also in attendance was Fr. Daniel Geeza, a retired OCA priest. A good portion of the Troop and leadership, along with the mother of the Scout and wife of the deacon, were in attendance, as seen in the attached pics.

Wonderful photos, Deacon Robert. Congratulations to your son!

Congratulations to the Scout, and parents for a job well done!

With two Eagle Scouts in our family, it was most awesome when the youngest received his Light is Life. We home schooled, and I used that as part of his school work that year.
