Pathfinder Camporee to Take Place in September

August 17, 2021

The Pathfinder Camporee in September brings clubs together to remind them that they "belong."

By Makena Horton

We all have questions we ask ourselves in the late hours of the night.


-      Is there a place where I fit?

-      Can I know that I am chosen?

-      Can I know that I belong somewhere?


The answer is yes! You belong, and you are chosen. Galatians 3:39 says, “And now that you belong to Christ, you are the true children of Abraham. You are his heirs, and God’s promise to Abraham belongs to you.” (NLT)


You have a place in the Kingdom, and in our Pathfinder family. The theme of this year’s Pathfinder Camporee is Belong, and it is all about recognizing that you have a place. Rob Lang, youth and young adult director for the North Pacific Union Conference, will be the speaker for the weekend.


Come to Camp MiVoden September 17-19 for this year’s camporee. After so much time apart, it is time to come back together with friends and family and connect to kick off the new Pathfinder year.


If you and your club are unable to attend in person, the event will also be available virtually. Registration is still encouraged for the virtual event as it will provide Pathfinder leaders with materials to help best serve their club.
