Joseph N. Zuniga

Get to know Joseph Zuniga...

- I am 14 years old, and a member of Deltona Spanish Pathfinders Club.

- I am going to Deltona Middle School, and have been an Adventurer and Pathfinder since I was 4 years old.

- I like Pathfinders because I learn about God, and play drums. I also get to be a leader, and be with my friends.

- When I was 12 years old, I started to learn saxophone. After two months of taking classes, I began to play in different churches, reveilles, at Red Zone, a Christian Radio station, and at the Oshkosh Camporee. I have also been invited to record at the 3ABN TV Station, in May of this year.

- I like to praise the Lord by playing Christian songs with my saxophone. God has blessed me.

- Many people have been touched through my music, which has shown my Life on Fire.

- I thank God for this talent, and I pray that I can continue to use it to praise God's name, to make a difference in people's lives, and help them come closer to God.

-Pathfinders, I invite you to keep your Life on Fire too, until Jesus Christ returns.
