Patches



National Patches

The NCCS offers various programs to assist Scouts of all ages learn more about their faith. View the current offerings on the NCCS website. It should be noted that these are activity patches, not religious emblems, and as such the Scout is not eligible for the BSA religious knot.





Archeparchial Patches

Local patches are highly encouraged by the NCCS and more patches will be developed by the archeparchial committee in the near future. It is our hope to use these patches as a means to develop our scouts identity as Eastern Christians. We believe that it is important to create programs that help scouts actively live out their faith in a way that furthers their path of theosis and informs and enriches the faith of those around them.
