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.

What does the Girl Scout Promise mean?

On my honor, I will try -  This means that you promise to do your very best.

                        To serve God - There are many ways to serve God.  You might go to a religious service or live in peace with other people.     

And my country - You can serve your country by saying the Pledge of Allegiance, reminding parents and other adults to vote on Election Day, or even sending a holiday card to military people overseas.

To help people at all times - You can carry a package for a neighbor, or help a friend with her homework.  You might plant a tree or visit a nursing home with your troop.

And to live by the Girl Scout Law.

The Girl Scout Law

I will do my best to be

honest and fair,

friendly and helpful.

considerate and caring,

courageous and strong, and responsible for what I say and do,

and to

respect myself and others,

respect authority,

use resources wisely,

make the world a better place, and

be a sister to every Girl Scout.
