IMPORTANT NOTICE!
 

TO: Girl Scout Leaders, American Heritage Girls Leaders, Religious Recognitions Moderators, Directors and Coordinators of Youth Ministry, Directors and Coordinators of Religious Education
 
FROM: Sean P. Reynolds, Director
 
DATE: January 1, 2007


At their annual meeting, the Archdiocese of Cincinnati Catholic Committee on Religious Recognitions (ACCCORR), which oversees religious recognitions programs for Girl Scouts and American Heritage Girls, determined that it was their clear preference to obtain medals and patches directly from the National Federation of Catholic Youth Ministry (NFCYM), rather than through our office.

Therefore, as of this date, religious medals and patches for the following programs will normally be purchased directly from the NFCYM in Washington, DC:

  • Family of God

  • I Live My Faith

  • Mary, The First Disciple (The Marian Medal Program) and

  • Spirit Alive

A detailed explanation on how to do this can be found on the procedures page (also found on the links on the left hand side).

We understand that it will take some time for people to get used to this new procedure, so the Office of Youth & Young Adult Ministry will keep a small stock of medals (but not patches) on hand for emergencies. Feel free to contact your regional OYYAM if you have any questions.

Please know that we are deeply grateful for all you do to promote the Catholic faith and its values in Girl Scouting and American Heritage Girls. Be assured of our prayers for you and the very important work you do with our young Church.
