Award schemes

What are they?

The Award Schemes are a programme of activities, all connected with CE in some way, which leads to the award of badges and certificates. The idea is similar to that of the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Scheme It encourages Juniors and Young People to use the talents which God has given them and helps them to attain the high standards set by Christian Endeavour.

The British Award Scheme
What is the British CE Award Scheme? In Christian Endeavour, children and young people are trained to serve Christ through taking part in a regular, usually weekly, church-based meeting. The British CE Award Scheme is designed to extend this training. It resembles the Duke of Edinburgh Scheme, the main difference being that all the subjects studied are connected with Church-based activities, Christian Endeavour, Bible, Christian Reading, and Practical Christian Living. How do you start?

The Scottish Award Scheme
The Awards are to encourage the development of the ability of the Juniors and for most of them the criteria for achievement is the good effort and positive attitude by the Junior as they work through the requirements. The motives behind them are the qualities of loyalty, commitment and caring for others as they live their every day Christian life serving Christ and the Church.
