Pathfinders

A group of Boy Scouts standing in a line indoors, wearing tan uniforms with yellow neckerchiefs. The scout in the foreground has a wide smile and a badge on his sleeve that says 'Pathfinder Club.' The background shows other scouts and adults, some looking at their phones.

Pathfinders is a worldwide organization of youth focusing on community service and building a relationship with God. The organization, sponsored by the Seventh-day Adventist Church, welcomes and encourages young people of any religious affiliation to join who promise to abide by the Pathfinder Pledge and Law.

The program is designed for children ages 10-15 and has almost 2 million members across the globe.

Pathfinders encourages a wide range of activities for the purpose of teaching children valuable life skills. From community projects, camping and survival skills, and nature and environmental conservation to vocational skills, healthy living, and spiritual development, children have the opportunity to explore their world through hands-on learning.

Joining A Pathfinder Club

Pathfinder clubs are formed and organized through local area churches. Being a member of the local church is not a requirement to join the club. The volunteer leadership, skilled in a variety of abilities and interests, are strong believers in Jesus Christ. They see Pathfinders as an opportunity for growth and learning, and are dedicated and committed to guiding children to become the hands and feet of Jesus.
