Precious is the Scout that takes time to worship GOD
I was attending my first Chapel service at Camp Tuscarora. Sitting with another new Scout leader named Danny, not knowing then just how strong a friendship in Scouting we would develop in coming years. Someone I had never met named Rick walked into the small rustic open air chapel underneath the trees. Mr. Rick said, let's take a moment and admire God's beautiful work. He turned to direct our attention to the Scout lake. The fog was thick and had lifted to about three feet above the water. The birds could be heard as the morning breeze made the leaves rustle ever so gently. Squirrels could be heard as they climbed on the branches. Wow, did God ever speak that morning. On my next camp out Mr. Ben asked if
I would consider being the Troop Chaplain. After some prayer I accepted. Nearly 20 years later I still find a Scout Chapel service at Camp Tuscarora well, like another great Scout leader said, "You can get as close to God here as you can anywhere".
May God bless my journey as a Boy Scout Chaplain!

Mr. Hogan is a great person. His abilities to transform Camp Tuscarora from a simple camp to a place the boys and adults cherish is amazing. As a Chaplain, I have seen Mr. Hogan work on hundreds of things with thousands of hours that most people do not know of. That along with his "normal" week. Mr. Hogan just might be the person on the left hand of God in Heaven. Click on the picture to read the verse Matthew 20:23 in the Bible.
