On Sunday, February 5, 2023, Scouting Sunday, Jacob Lezinsky received the St. George's Award Medal from Cub Scouts. The Baden-Powell Scouts' Association holds St. George's Scout as their highest youth award; Orthodox Churches offer a Saint George's Medal Award to both Cub Scouts and Brownie Girl Scouts for their devotion to church and family.
St George is the patron saint of the Boy Scouts of America.
Many church members wore uniforms and insignias that they earned when they were in Scouting. Wearing a part of their uniform during the service showed the impact scouting has on our very own church, and the positions of service they hold during our Divine Liturgy.
“May God Grant Them Many Years!”
