Order Religious Awards

Effective January 1, 2013, the ONLY way to order medals for religious awards, is through the mail.  It is therefore important that you leave enough time before your planned presentation of the award to order and receive it (generally 2 -3 weeks).  Please do not ask if you can fax, email, or walk in the application. 

To order the medals, please download and mail the form below along with required paperwork, (be sure to obtain all necessary signatures), to the Diocesan Catholic Committee on Scouting address on the form.  Please be sure to type or print the names on the form so that we can read them and put them in our awards program properly.

Purpose

The purpose of the Catholic Committee on Scouting is to give guidance, vitality and leadership in the spiritual phase of Scouting to all Catholic Scouts and adult leaders of the Diocese of Joliet.  The committee endeavors to make the entire Scouting program available to increasing numbers of youths in parish units and in units operated by Catholic organizations.  Each year the Committee Trains adults on the Religious Awards, provides an Retreat for youth and leaders, and organizes the Awards Ceremony at the Cathedral.
