I count it a true blessing to work with the Pathfinders, our singles and young adults ministry. There is no doubt that God has been working powerfully within the Pathfinders. We saw this in the faces of the children who were touched by the Christmas Wish program, thanks in part for all of your help. It is evident in the relationships of our class members. It is present in our many thoughtful and meaningful Bible studies and prayer times. The Pathfinders’ ministry is committed to helping our singles and young adults faithfully participate in the mission of God through worship and service.
Currently in the Pathfinders Sunday morning Bible class we are studying the life of Moses along with many of the other adult Bible classes. On Wednesday nights we are doing a thorough study of the parable of the prodigal son. Next month we plan to restart our weekly small group Bible study. In addition to these opportunities to worship, study, and pray, we have regularly scheduled activities that provide ways to build deeper relationships with each other and with God.
If you would like more information about our Singles and Young Adults Ministry, please contact me. I would be pleased to tell you more about the Pathfinders. You can give me a call, 341-3353 or send me an email [email protected].
