Pathfinders

Who We Are

The Pathfinder Club is a youth organization sponsored by the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Membership is open to girls and boys in fifth grade and older.
‍
Pathfinders enjoy outdoor adventures, arts and crafts, leadership training, and a wide variety of service projects as they learn about our Savior, Jesus Christ.

Our guiding principles can be found in the Pathfinder Pledge and Law:

Pathfinder Pledge

‍By the grace of God
I will be pure, kind, and true
I will keep the Pathfinder Law
I will be a servant of God
and a friend to man

Pathfinder Law

‍Keep the morning watch
Do my honest part
Care for my body
Keep a level eye
Be courteous and obedient
Walk softly in the sanctuary
Keep a song in my heart
Go on God's errands
