Who are Royal Ambassadors?

Royal Ambassadors is a Bible-centered, church-based, Southern Baptist, mission education organization for boys. A Royal Ambassador is a boy in grades 1-6 committed to living out the RA pledge. This pledge is part of personal and chapter (group of RAs) accountability.

Where did we get the name "Royal Ambassadors"? 2 Corinthians 5:17-20 describes the purpose of Royal Ambassadors. While the RA motto is found in verse 20, the other verses sum up Paul's declaration of why we need to be ambassadors for Christ.

2 Corinthians 5
17Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! 18All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: 19that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. 20We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God.

THE ROYAL AMBASSADOR PLEDGE

As a Royal Ambassador I will do my best:

to become a well-informed, responsible follower of Christ;

to have a Christ-like concern for all people;

to learn how to carry the message of Christ around the world;

to work with others in sharing Christ; and

to keep myself clean and healthy in mind and body.
