Pathfinders get excited about painting and cleaning For the second day in a row, pathfinders very cheerfully got on buses and headed to Francisco I. Maderop Park in the Iztapalapa district in Mexico City to do community service.
On the way to the site, the bus carrying pathfinders from the Southwest Guatemala Mission rumbled with cheers from their country.
Michelle Garcia, advisor for the Pioneers Club from the Guatemala’s Metropolitan Conference, commented that they are very glad to help the community by painting and cleaning.
“I have to paint the edges of the sidewalks, and I am getting ready for that,” said José Campos, a pathfinder in the explorer class from South Central Guatemala Mission.
The Asglay Club from the North Tamaulipas Mission began its work painting sidewalks.
Fidel Garcia, a companion class pathfinder, commented that he never had to paint sidewalks before, and that he was glad because he was learning something new.
For Anabetsy Carvajal, a pathfinder explorer of the Light Bearers Club of the West Habana delegation, the Cuban Union, service to the community is very important.
“We come as faithful pathfinders, conquering giants for Jesus. I want that the people that see us could know that we are Seventh-day Adventists and that we are cleaning their city.
“I am very glad because we are serving Jesus and I had to sweep up,” she added.
All pathfinders and their leaders were very happy painting and cleaning the entrance to the sport facility. Those passing by thanked them for doing something positive for the sport facility.
