Someone just asked me for permission to ask the Session (tonight!) to use our church's educational building as a site for Girl Scout troop meetings.
As pastor/moderator, I'm going to advocate a 2 month study committee to report in September (we don't meet in August).
I'm leaning toward advocating a standing policy of zero civic groups being allowed access to use of buildings.
I'm wondering if any other churches/Sessions/boards etc. have recently allowed such activities on church premises?
If so, have there been negative repercussions?
There is a great deal of contradictory info on the USA Scouting programs on/in the Web.
Advice, experience and prayers greatly appreciated.
