Current MissionsThe Pathfinder Missions program is a Royal Ranger initiative that will use the many skills of rangers to provide construction teams in places where other missions teams are unable or unwilling to go. When you travel on a Pathfinder Mission trip you will not be on a vacation, although it will be one of the greatest experiences of your life! God commissions us to reach the lost, but he can also use missions to impact our very lives…if we let Him.

Building God’s Kingdom
The hard way
Pathfinder Missions trips are classified by three levels of intensity, from entry level to advanced, and awarded accordingly:
The Bronze Pathfinder Mission — U.S. Missions construction projects.
The Silver Pathfinder Mission — Overseas projects to moderately accessible construction sites with basic conveniences. (Such as churches, Rangers camps, or orphanages.)
The Gold Pathfinder Mission — Overseas construction projects to harsh, remote areas of the world where other teams are unable to go due to the tough living conditions of these assignments. (Such as packing or boating equipment and building supplies to site.)
