Florida Conference of Seventh-day Adventists

by Adrian Paneto
Marching in the University of Florida Gator Homecoming Parade, down one of the busiest streets of Gainesville, Fla., 35 Pathfinders in their Class A uniforms, with a color guard, decorated float, and drum line, made themselves known in a city recognized mostly for its secular college atmosphere. Young people from Gainesville Spanish Church were joined by those from Southeastern Conference’s Bethel Church to represent Seventh-day Adventists in the annual Friday parade.
It is the second year for Pathfinder involvement in this fall classic that sees thousands of residents lining University Avenue to witness the city’s largest parade of the year. The club invested hours of planning and decorating into their preparation that led to the privilege of being shown on a local television station.
The Pathfinders of Gainesville continue working hard to further the advancement of God’s truth and welcome each opportunity to be a beacon of light in their community.
