Participating in a Pathfinder Missions trip will not be a vacation but
will be one of the greatest experiences of your life. We would like to
challenge you to give of yourself in a way that you have never given before.
Did you ever think that your working skills could be used as a ministry?
Pathfinders are growing the Kingdom of God by using their skills and labors all
around the world.
Pathfinder teams, using the Frontier Camping Fellowship as their backbone,
are making a difference.
Pathfinder Missions is a not-for-profit organization and is
supported through donations.
Founded in 1995, Pathfinder Missions exists to construct
churches, Ranger Camps, Christian Schools, clinics, orphanages, missionary
dwellings, or anything a missionary needs to build God’s Kingdom at home in the
USA, or in the most remote areas of the world.
Teams need a variety of construction talents, such as carpentry, masonry,
framework, post and beam work, and native material construction. Accepting the
challenge of a Royal Rangers Pathfinder Missions trip may also require you to
use your camp craft, woodsmanship, backpacking, and survival skills.
Pathfinder Missions trips are classified by three levels of intensity, from
entry level to advanced, and awarded accordingly:
The Bronze Pathfinder Mission — U.S. Missions construction
projects outside one’s home district. (This includes projects such as those on
Indian reservations or in urban settings.)
The Silver Pathfinder Mission — Overseas projects to
moderately accessible construction sites with basic conveniences. (This
includes projects such as churches, Rangers Camps, or orphanages.)
The Gold Pathfinder Mission — Overseas construction projects
to harsh, remote areas of the world where other teams are unable to go due to the
tough living conditions of these assignments. (This includes projects that
require packing or boating equipment and building supplies to site.)
