Together: Central Spanish Pathfinder Club Inducts Eight New Members

The Central Spanish Pathfinder Club welcomed eight new Pathfinders and two new staff members during a Sabbath induction service at Washington Spencerville Spanish Church, an event that drew together generations of church members committed to guiding young people in faith.
Milena Cruz Rodriguez, director of the Central Spanish Pathfinder Club, said the service represented a new season for the club after years of challenges and rebuilding. “We rejoice in seeing God open the door to a new season of growth, renewed commitment, and hope for the future,” Cruz Rodriguez said.
Josue Ayala, area coordinator, addressed the club and underscored the role older generations play in shaping younger ones, encouraging staff and volunteers to continue mentoring the Pathfinders in their care. Guest speaker Josselyn Rodriguez likewise called on the newly inducted members and staff to remain faithful to Christ, framing their commitment as part of a larger, ongoing chain of service passed from one generation to the next within the club.
The new Pathfinders and staff recited the Pledge and Law together during the ceremony, standing alongside veteran members, parents, and volunteers who have supported the club for years. Cruz Rodriguez thanked the church family, parents, staff, and volunteers whose prayers and support have sustained the ministry across generations.
Club leaders said they look forward to building on that same spirit of shared commitment among young and old throughout the coming year.
