Adventurer & Pathfinder Induction Ceremony

Adventist youth participating in the Adventurer and Pathfinder training courses engage in meaningful activities that foster personal growth, leadership skills, and a deeper understanding of their faith. The Adventurer program, designed for younger children, emphasizes teamwork, community service, and the development of essential life skills through hands-on experiences, while the Pathfinder program caters to teens, focusing on outdoor adventures and spiritual enrichment. These courses not only provide valuable lessons in survival skills, such as camping and hiking, but also encourage social interaction and the establishment of lasting friendships among peers who share similar beliefs. By completing these training sessions, youth are equipped with practical skills and a solid moral foundation, empowering them to become responsible and active members of both their church and the wider community, while also deepening their commitment to their spiritual journey.
