Girl Scout Sunday and Girl Scout Sabbath

You are here

Girl Scouts of Northern Indiana-Michiana, partnered with religious organizations, have enriched the spiritual lives of Girl Scout members. Each member strives from the perspective of her own personal belief to live by the Girl Scout Law.

Girl Scout Sunday and Sabbath occur during Girl Scout week (March 10 – March 16, 2013). Girl Scout Sunday is on March 10 and Girl Scout Sabbath is March 16th. Some religions observe Girl Scout Sunday on the Sunday beginning Girl Scout Week, while other religions observe the Girl Scout Sabbath on the Friday or Saturday ending Girl Scout week. This arrangement allows our membership of diverse faiths to celebrate on their chosen day of worship.

During this week, Girl Scouts of all ages celebrate by demonstrating courage, confidence, and character in ways that have a positive impact on their communities. We take this time to thank all of you in our community who have supported us so that we may continue with the Girl Scout legacy and service to others.

The purpose of this special day is to emphasize the
importance of the Girl Scout Promise:

On my honor, I will try:
To serve God* and my country,
To help people at all times,
And to live by the Girl Scout Law.

Girl Scout Sunday and Sabbath provides a time for Girl Scouts to
reflect upon the importance of the words, “to serve God”.
