About Pathfinder Church

Culturally relevant, Biblically sound, and outwardly focused, we are a church made up of people from all walks of life and very different pasts. Some of us have grown up in churches and others are just beginning our journey with God. But as different as we are, what unites us is that we are all on an amazing life journey together, discovering more about God and his incredible plans for us.

At Pathfinder Church, we know that life is a journey, and the road is rarely smooth. That’s why we strive to be a place where real people can gather together to find clarity, purpose, and connection. Pathfinder Church aims to shed light on life’s journey, as we walk it together.

Here’s what you can expect to find at Pathfinder Church:

Bringing together imperfect people in pursuit of a Whole Life
