A young Pathfinder from Buimo Road Seventh-day Adventist Church in Lae District, Morobe Mission (PNG), was baptised on September 20 during the local celebration of World Pathfinder Day.
Cameron Penam, a member of the Ranger class, publicly committed his life to Jesus in front of fellow Pathfinders, teachers and church members. His classmates formed a guard of honour as he entered the water, accompanied by former Buimo Road Church pastor Rex Sobive.
“The church was overjoyed for the decision that a young Pathfinder has made to follow Jesus,” said local church member Francis Leem.
The baptism took place as part of the church’s Pathfinder Day program, which joined global celebrations marking the 75th anniversary of the Pathfinder ministry. Although evening programs were cancelled due to unrest on nearby streets, members gathered on Sabbath to worship together and give thanks for the milestone.
