From The Texas Tribune: 
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on Atasca Oaks is another large Scout sponsors.
“Because the Scouting is a morals-based program, our church uses it as the youth program. All of our boys who sign up for youth group become Scouts,” said Steve Bales who heads up the program.
He said they rely on the program because it builds character and self-esteem and “keeps a boys’ welfare as priority one.”
Bales is the youth minister at his church but he has also served as Scout president overseeing 10 congregations and as Bishop of the Humble Ward.
“It is a challenge these days to carry the boys all the way to Eagle Scout,” he said. “Only two or three percent who enter the program make it all the way to Eagle Scout. It is a wonderful program and you don’t have to be a member of this church to join.”
