SAMPLE Monthly Plan
Club meetings held weekly on Wednesday evenings from 6:00-8:00pm.
1st Wednesday of the Month - Investiture Achievement
To combat the groans we get from the kids when we mention Investiture Achievement, we make this meeting night special. We call it "Home Group." The meeting is held at one of our staff member's homes. There is a snack or a meal, a "cozy" worship environment of book study and singing, a team building game in the backyard, and then 1 hour and 15 minutes of Investiture Achievement classes (class groups meet in the dinning room, living room, family room, and bonus room). We usually sneak in some S'mores in the backyard fire pit if the weather is permitting.
2nd Wednesday of the Month - Service Night
This night is reserved solely for service projects. We always begin the meeting by reciting the Pathfinder Law and Pledge... our "why" behind doing service. We have done many different projects on these nights. However, we find it easier for planning that we pick a couple projects and do them consistently throughout the year. For example, each service night we do 3 projects - Church School Landscaping, Assisted Living Center Visiting, and Recycling. The pathfinder break into three groups to do these projects and we rotate each month so everyone gets a chance to try everything.
All other Wednesdays - Honors
The other 2-3 Wednesdays of the month are reserved for doing honors and special activities that relate to our theme for the year. Of course, we always start these meetings with worship. Click the link to learn more about themes. Click to learn more about worship ideas.
