The Seventh-day Adventist Church is committed to training young people for leadership and service to humanity through its club ministries’ programs. On September 16, 2023, Pathfinders Worldwide will celebrate its 73rd anniversary on World Pathfinder Day.
This special day is held every year on the third Sabbath of September to celebrate what it means to be a Pathfinder.
The theme for this year’s event, “Go With Jesus,” was adapted from the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists theme, “I Will Go.” Being willing to go wherever He leads is the true calling of God. Whether in their local communities or the other side of the world, Pathfinders are the “Hands and Feet of Jesus,” fulfilling the Gospel Commission.
We are proud of our Texas Conference Pathfinders and their positive impact on their communities. Whenever there is a need, our club ministries respond.
I am honored to join the celebratory messages for this special day and commend you for being Pathfinder Strong. I look forward to seeing you in Gillette, Wyoming, in 2024 for the International Pathfinder Camporee. That will be just a taste of Heaven here on Earth.
Enjoy World Pathfinder Day! Go With Jesus! God Bless You!
