Children's Ministry

Boy Scouts – Troop and Pack 24

bs1Asbury United Methodist Church is host to the oldest, continuous Scout troop west of the Mississippi River. Founded in 1923, Troop 24 has been an integral part of the ministry here at Asbury.  Moreover, Scouting in general plays an important role in the community.  Whether as a cub scout or boy scout, boys learn the importance of integrity and value of leadership.  Through the program, our hope is to build “a more conscientious, responsible, and productive society.”

bs4Below you will find some information on when our the Scouts gather.  Also, you will find a contact form if you are interested in learning more about the program or getting your child involved in Troop or Pack 24!
