There's something special about being part of a family. This is what a church is. We are God's children and we make only one family. In a time when lonliness is common, a family can make a difference. Pathfinders Church is more than a group of people. We are a family with one heart, one mission, and one vision. Does this mean we always agree? Of course not. But when we don't agree we don't allow that disagreement to cause separation. Our society has enough separation within the family unit. It's time that we come together and attempt to love each other as though other people are better than ourselves.
Pathfinders Church is made up of imperfect people who don't try to be perfect but desire to be real with each other. We attempt to share our struggles and our joys. When we struggle, we encourage each other instead of stepping on each other. When we rejoice, we become excited for each other instead of becoming jealous. With a family like this, we can become all that God desires us to be.
Once you are in a family you should stay in that family. There's no kicking to the curb here. The below picture was taken at Thanksgiving in 2004. Since then some families have moved to other parts of the country. However, they remain as much a part of our lives as they were while they lived here. |
