Assemblies of God version of Boy Scouts. In the end it's much harder because in addition to the usual merits, and projects, they have a lot of Bible memorization, and church service.
The Gold Medal of Achievement is recognised by Washington DC as the Eagle Scout equivalent. My son only has to earn the Silver before he can earn the Gold.

Congrats.....and a big congrats to your church as well. The Royal Rangers and Missionettes programs are wonderful, yet so many churches that I see are doing away with them these days.

'Tis the sad truth. He's enrolled in a church that we're not even member of. We go for the program only. Our home church is also AG, but they don't follow the Rangers curriculum...I don't even thing they are registered. Those boys that work hard, won't even be recognised for their achievements! We tried to work it out, and keep the program going there, but ran into huge obsticles...mainly 30+ boys weekly for just the 2 of us...no commanders. So sad....
