He wants you to do. You do what you can for your country and are a good citizen.

Next, you promise to help others, which means your family, friends, and strangers.

When you see a need, you step in to help without being asked. Finally, you promise

to obey the Law of the Pack. Part of the Law is to give good will. Little things can

make a big dierence in life. You can make a dierence.

This Christmas dont forget the joy that comes from giving; especially giving of

yoruself. Heavenly Father gave us His Son, Jesus Christ, whose birth we celebrate

now. May we always remember Him and his example.

This month the Cub Scout theme is Respect. When we respect something, we treat

it well; espceially if the thing does not belong to us. Likewise, when respecting a

person, we treat them well.

Every person is a child of God,

and has their own unique

personality, talents, and beliefs.

We do not have to agree with a

person to be able to treat them

with kindness and respect.

Respect is an essential trait for

all who wish to be successful

in life.
