Attending 'my' place of Worship

It is my understanding that :
Guiding recognises that faith and worship is a very important factor in most peoples lives. Faith, belief and Worship enriches peoples lives in so many different ways.
Guiding itself is a non-religious, non-political organisation. This being said guiding supports those members who choose to attend places of worship and to express themselves in a respectful and diligent way that allows for them to respect and live with themselves, their family,community, their environment and the world around them.

What's a Guides Own?

With a group of people a very simple ceremony that says "Thank you" is a Guides Own. Usually based on a theme. You involve your own "Superior Being" and simply communicate a thanks using different communication methods.

Since every Guide has made her own Promise she is reflecting on her own beliefs. Therefor there may be a mixed bag of "Superior Ones" represented. As a participant there are many methods to show respect of everyone's wishes and beliefs.
