Pathfinder Church will head to Camp Mihaska in Bourbon, MO, for its annual fall retreat. The church encouraged all sixth to eighth graders to join the weekend trip from Friday to Sunday, Oct. 7 to 9.

Annual Fall Retreat 

Pathfinder Church provided details about its annual Fall Retreat through its website. All middle schoolers will be able to engage in group challenges during the event. 

They would explore nature and learn more about God’s reality and will also play games. There will also be singing or moshing.

Pathfinder Church also organized a lip sync battle and a 3v3 basketball tournament. There will be skits and prizes.

The church required a fee for this annual fall retreat. The cost covers lodging, food, supplies, a t-shirt, and an optional climbing tower or zip line activity.

The fee does not cover transportation. The church announced that drop-off and pick-up are at Camp Mihaska.

Friday drop-off is from 7 p.m. to 7:30 p.mwhile Sunday pick-up at the camp is from 11:15 a.m. until 11:45 a.m. 

The Core is a weekly Sunday morning program at Pathfinder Church. It runs during the school year. The Core is open to all sixth-eight graders. 

It engages students in a fun and impactful large group time. The kids also meet with a talented student-led band and experience relevant teaching with creative illustrations. 

Adult mentors lead small group discussions.

As shared on the church’s website, these discussions highlight life applications and building relationships in an encouraging environment. Pathfinder Church organized smalls into grades and gender. 

The church required registration for anyone who wants to join its CORE youth ministry program in St. Louis. It also reminded all that returning seventh, and eighth-grade students must register. 

Pathfinder Church does not require any fee for attending CORE. Furthermore, kids who want to join in Confirmation must attend the Sunday morning CORE program.
