Well, I was a RR leader for 6 years. I had passion, I had too much passion that I couldn't step back and see that RR was a baby sitting service. That no matter what the boy did, that the leader was the real problem and that you heard about it.
Maybe, when the pastors in the churches will wake up and see the coffee and realize that RR is not another notch in your churches belt of programs to be offered, that is when you will see rangers grow Maybe, a boys heart doesn't care where the money comes from so that he will learn about Christ, or learn how to lead a person to Christ or learn how to care about his fellow human being. You see, it's not about money. It's not about the leaders It's not about the parents It's not about the books, uniforms, patches, merits, campouts, etc. It's about your pastors commitment to the boys that you lead. If he is not committed to the Royal Ranger vision. Then you do not have a leg to stand on. Your pastor's commitment gives you the money, the boys, the parents, the leaders. When pastors stop seeing RR as a baby sitting service on Wed. nights, that is when you will have a Royal Rangers outpost that functions as it should. When other men are willing to be part of a Outpost council with the Pastors blessing. It gets even better. Like I said, I use to have a passion. That went out with the pastors lack of passion, commitment and devotion too all of the people in the church, not just the pet projects and the adults.
