LIFE ON FIRE REVIEW
We have spent the last four months talking about what it means to live a Life on Fire! We talked about the HABITS:
- Hanging Out with God
- Accountability
- Bible Memorization
- Involvement
- Tithing
- Studying Scripture
And then, we talked about two other key words: Attitude and Choices
We need to ask God to help us daily to make the choices that will bring us closer to living a Life on Fire!

- I am a member of Kress Memorial SDA Church. Three years ago, I was a Pathfinder counselor, then joined SALT Outreach Ministries, and soon became the Central Area Director of Programming.
- In August 2013, I attended my first church board meeting. I came in late, and the discussion was on who to elect as the new leader for the Pathfinder ministry. Hesitantly, I raised my hand asking if I could give my two cents and weigh in on the subject. The next thing I know, I'm receiving pats on the back, and the board members congratulating me as the new Pathfinder Director. I remember even days after, asking God to give me guidance and direction. I didn't know how I would be able to do it. I asked for the courage to be a good leader. Looking back now, I recall the times I was praying to God for help, and every single time, He has come through. My first year, I had to plan for both the Southern Union Camporee and the International Camporee. God showed me that if I had faith in Him, I had no need to worry because He has my back. In addition to God blessing me with the ability to lead, he has blessed me with a loving and supporting church family, and the best staff I could ask for. Did I mention that I have the most awesome kids in my club?
- God called me to a life of ministry. I praise and thank Him for giving me this opportunity to live a Life on Fire for Him, serving in one of the most rewarding ministries on earth. You see, God is able to use the least, the most timid, the shy and dauntful, the person who has the least of confidence, the untrained, and ill-equipped. When He calls you to life a Life on Fire, He's not really looking for certain strengths, abilities, or attributes. He's simply calling you to serve in whatever state you are in. All you have to say is, 'Yes, Lord.'

New Adventurer Logo Voted - 5 Years to Phase In
A new North America Division Adventurer logo was voted by the NAD Adventurer Committee in March. The new logo will be rolled out gradually in the next 5 years, giving time for the present Adventurers to graduate. The change was made because the current logo did not include the Eager Beavers and Little Lambs. The new logo is inclusive of all 6 Adventurer classes. Minor changes may still be made to the logo.  Note: This is a picture of a picture, so the quality is poor. There are three figures with raised arms, all in differing heights. The two taller figures are yellow, while the third figure is white. The maroon, blue, yellow and white colors seem to be the same as the present Adventurer logo colors. |
