Baptism, a special occasion in which candidates are celebrated for publicly giving their lives to God, can be intimidating for some; being the center of attention isn’t everyone’s forte.
Now picture getting baptized in front of 60,000-plus Pathfinders, staff and family members.
Statement from the International Pathfinder Camporee Leadership team:
Because the safety of all those gathered at the International Pathfinder Camporee is of utmost importance, the camporee leadership, in collaboration with North American Division union, division and international leadership, has reluctantly decided to finish the evening main stage nighttime program one day early, on Friday, August 9.
Severe thunderstorms, strong winds and hail are predicted for Sabbath late afternoon and evening. Every effort is being made to keep Pathfinders safe during the next few days.
