Motto
Sure & Stedfast
Taken from Hebrews 6:19. The biblical spelling of stedfast has been
retained as found in the King James Version.
Object
The object of The Boys' Brigade shall be the advancement of Christ's
Kingdom among Members and the promotion of habits of Obedience,
Reverence, Discipline, Self-Respect and all that tends towards a true
Christian Character. The text of this object has remained the same since
the beginning, with the addition of the word obedience in 1893.
Clearly the Brigade seeks to win
Boys to the service of Christ and to develop in them the desirable
qualities of Christian character.
Method
The method of achieving the object of The Boys' Brigade is by providing
a meaningful and enjoyable programme of educational, physical, social
and spiritual interests, based on the "twin pillars" of
Christian Faith and Discipline and guided by adult leaders as officers.
Through the framework
of uniform, badges and drill, the habits of discipline, self-respect,
smartness and team-work are developed in each Boy according to his needs
and his capacity.
