We are happy that you have an interest in our youth ministry. Please read on and our hope is that you find here the information you need. We Are The Guilgal Orion Pathfinder Club of the Guilgal Seventh-day Adventist Church.
We are in the Southeastern Conference, under the Southern Union Conference of the North American Division of the World General Conference of Seventh-day Adventist Churches. Our Goal is to build up our youth in our church and community with a Spiritual foundation of knowing Jesus Christ and understanding God’s Word in the Bible. ANY youth between the ages of 10 – 17, (5th – 12th grades) of any denomination or none at all, are encouraged to join our organization.
We also have Teen Leaders in Training (T.L.T.) program for youths aged 16-17, (11th & 12th grades).
Our Objectives include helping develop our youths to be responsible and mature individuals and leaders in the church ministries and our communities by mentoring them through fellowship, worship, outreach and service as well as teaching them discipline, etiquette and proper conduct.
We engage our youths with many character-building activities including, but not limited to:
- Team Building Exercises
- Leadership Training
- Retreats
- Camping & Survival Skills
- Community Service & Outreach
Honors Training (with awards given in the form of a patch upon successful completion) which include areas like:
- Arts & Crafts
- Health
- Science
- House & Home
- Nature
- Vocational
- Outreach
- Recreation
To join Our Club, please contact us at guilgal@guilgalsda.org or 407-xxx-xxxx. We have formal events where we wear a uniform much like the Boy/Girl Scouts.
There are some additional fees for these as well as nominal costs for certain events. We have an annual registration fee and club dues.
Our club does not follow the school year calendar. Instead we are following the year calendar of January to December.
We meet at our Church and online virtually (sometimes) typically 2 times per month. We expect youth to be on time and ready to learn and experience the Spirit of Pathfindering.
We have a code of conduct and a discipline action plan and thus we expect all youth to adhere to these basic rules to ensure everyone has a very rewarding experience with our club. We hope that you will allow your child the opportunity to learn and grow with us.
Thank you for visiting.
Have A Blessed Day!
