70 Years of Ministry

Our History

In 1952, the Florida Conference of Seventh-day Adventists launched its Pathfinder ministry, becoming one of the pioneers of organized youth ministry in North America. Over the past 70 years, the program has grown from a handful of dedicated volunteers into one of the largest Pathfinder programs on the continent, with over 150 clubs and thousands of young people discovering their purpose through faith, service, and adventure. This milestone celebrates the countless lives transformed and the enduring legacy of mentorship that continues to shape future generations.
