The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) has named Bishop Michael Fisher of the Diocese of Buffalo as the Episcopal Liaison to the National Catholic Committee on Scouting (NCCS). Bishop Fisher was active in the Boy Scouts of American (BSA) growing up, achieving the rank of Eagle Scout and earning the Ad Altare Dei Catholic Scouting Religious Emblem. Bishop Fisher says that if he hadn’t earned his Catholic Scouting Religious Emblem, he might not have become a priest. He is committed to helping more young people have access to Catholic Scouting and to utilizing Catholic Scouting as youth ministry in the Church.
