The Chapel Committee is hard at work with some new additions to the Ordeal Weekend. I and my team have been working to emphasize servant leadership in the different service weekends and explain to the ordeal candidates what their Ordeal truly means. As I've interviewed several new Ordeal members, they've explained to me that they didn't understand the elements of the weekend 100%.  I can definitely empathize with that, looking back at my first weekend.  I myself was not sure what each of the service projects meant, or what the ceremonies represented. We are hoping to do at least three talks during the weekend, no more than a paragraph long, just emphasizing, listening to the talks and understanding how this is in line with Boy Scouts and the leadership roles that they have already taken.
