Adventurers
The Adventurer program was created to assist parents in their important responsibilities as a child’s primary teachers. The program aims to strengthen the parent/child relationship and to further the child’s development in spiritual, physical, mental, and social areas.
The adventurer club involves children from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 4 and their parents.
The Adventurer Club provides fun and creative ways for children…
- to develop a Christ-like character
- to experience the joy and satisfaction of doing things well
- to express their love for Jesus in a natural way
- to learn good sportsmanship and strengthen their ability to get along with others
- to discover their God-given abilities and to know how to use them to benefit self and serve others
- to improve their understanding of what makes families strong.
Pathfinders
Pathfinders conjure up images of marching, camping, curious hobbies and encounters with God’s creation in Nature. It is a church-centered, spiritual-recreational activity with an appeal for youth who are at the fast-growing physical stage of development. ‘Service to God and to humanity’ in a nutshell is the dual purpose of Pathfindering.
The pathfinder club involves youth from Grade 5 and up.
Pathfinders offer a wide range of activities including, but not limited to:
- Camping & camping/survival skills
- Grade appropriate leadership training
- Activities promoting community pride & involvement through outreach activities
- Interactive training in a variety of recreational, artistic, nature, conservation, vocational, and outreach areas, with awards (honors) given for successful completion of the interactive training modules
