On their website addressing Catholic Scouting, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has added Trail Life USA as a national program that provides:
excellent opportunities for the Church to pass on the Gospel of Jesus Christ to children and youth through her life and rich tradition of faith, morals, leadership development, pastoral care, prayer and worship, and service.
Within Trail Life, the formation of the National Catholic Committee of Trail Life USA is an important step in aiding OR-1531 and other Catholic-Christian Troops with added opportunities to collaborate on strengthen the faith of our boys and provide them with sound guidance.
