The Parvuli Dei emblem (grades 3-5) is designed to help Bear and Webelos Cub Scouts become more aware of God's presence in their daily lives. |

The Ad Altare Dei emblem (grades 7-12) assists Boy Scouts of the Latin Rite to develop a fully Christian way of life in the faith communities. The program is organized in steps based on the seven sacraments. |

The Light of Life emblem (grades 7-12) aids Boy Scouts of the Eastern Catholic Churches in bringing about a deeper awareness of their share in faith-life. |

The Pope Pius XII emblem (registered youth members in a least grade 9) is for both Venturers (male and female) and Boy Scouts. The program deals with different life choices, occupations and ministries in the church as calls from God. |
