Preamble, Constitution of Girl Scouts of the United States of America

"We, the members of Girl Scouts of the United States of America, united by a belief in God… believe that the motivating force in Girl Scouting is a spiritual one."

The Girl Scout Promise

On my honor, I will try:
To serve God and my country,
To help people at all times,
And to live by the Girl Scout Law

Girl Scouting promotes and encourages girls to participate in faith-based programs. It has been part of the Girl Scout tradition since its inception in 1912 and remains a cornerstone of the Girl Scout program.

Girl Scouts recognizes the religious diversity that exists within our communities. Many times, girls in the same troop represent a wide variety of faiths. Troop Leaders help girls develop respect and appreciation for each others' individual beliefs.

National Interfaith Committee helps girls explore their faith.
The National Interfaith Committee for Girl Scouting was established to help strengthen girls' individual religious beliefs. The committee represents a variety of faith-based organizations that have developed age-specific religious programs for girls. Upon completion of these programs, girls receive awards that recognize their accomplishments. These awards may be worn on the Girl Scout sash or vest.
