Goto the documents section for a great Family Home Evening resource. It is entitled How Family Home Evenings can help a YM earn his Duty to God award. The article lays out the frame work for 10 Family Home Evening lessons and what Duty to God requirements a YM can accomplish by teaching that lesson.

On My Honor

“On My Honor”—The most important scout virtue is that of Honor. Indeed this is the basis of all scout virtues and is closely allied to that of self–respect. When a scout promises to do a thing on his honor, he is bound to do it. The honor of a scout will not permit of anything but the highest and the best and the manliest. The honor of a scout is a sacred thing and cannot be lightly set aside or trampled on. – Scout Handbook First Edition, 1911 p. 9
