year olds.
The Pathfinder Shield defines what we are about:
The Cross of St Andrew. One of Jesus' disciples, Andrew, is the
example for all Pathfinders. Why? Because he found the right path
through life. He found and followed Jesus and then introduced his
brother, Peter, to Jesus. Look at: John 1:35-42
The Signpost. Like a signpost at a crossroads, the Cross is where
Jesus died to set us on the right road—to God. By His death, Jesus
made it possible for our sins to be forgiven and for us to enjoy
God's help and friendship as we journey through life. We have to
choose whether to take this road or to follow our own path. Read and
learn: 1 John 1:9:1 Peter 3:18
The Book. Travellers read guide books and maps to guide them
along the right road, and to show their the type of country through
which they will be passing. The Bible is like that for a Christian.
As we read it. God speaks to us and guides the traveller. The Bible
shows us the type of life we can expect and how God wants us to live
this life.
Read and learn: 2 Timothy 3:16; Joshua 1:7, 8
The Flame. A traveller needs a light to show him the way on his
journey. The flame reminds us of the Holy Spirit, whom God promises
to all Christians. He is in us to give us the strength to travel
along God's path, to see the way He wants us to go and to make Jesus
more real to us.
Read and learn: John 14:16, 17.26;Acts 1:8 Look at: Acts 2:1 -4
The Rope. When travellers have mountains to climb. they rope
themselves together for safety and to help each other. The rope
reminds us of the Love that binds Christians to Christ and to each
other. Christians need the help of each other as they travel along
God's path together. That is one reason why Christians link up with
their local church. Read and learn: John 15:12; Romans 8:37. 38;
Colossians 3:14 |
