Ranger/Personal Growth |
---|
Requirement 1 |
Be a teenager 13 years of age, and/or in Grade 8 or its equivalent. |
The Ranger level has been designed to be within reach of a person in the eighth grade or higher. It should be challenging, yet achievable for a child at this point in his or her formal education.
Requirement 2 |
Be an active member of the AJY Society or Pathfinder Club |
Achievement Classes/Ranger/General/requirement 2b
The questions are to be asked in relation to the Bible texts read in Requirement 2a. The point of having the Pathfinder answer these questions is to encourage him think about the text in a way that he may not have before. It is easier than we like to admit to read a long passage and not even think about it. Journaling should help prevent this.
How the journaling is done should be left to the Pathfinder.
Writing
Some people are more comfortable writing things down. This can be done with a pencil (or pen) and paper in a notebook, in a diary, on a word processor, or even on a blog or social network posting.
Drawing
Some children do not like to write and will resist it mightily. For such children, the thought of not being invested in not likely to be an effective motivator. They may prefer to illustrate the concepts instead, and that is a valid way for them to journal their thoughts.
Electronic Process
The Pathfinder may choose to write his journal entries in a word processor, a blog, or a social network. While these may be considered either writing or an "electronic process," there are other options available. For instance, Pathfinders may wish to make an audio or video recording of their thoughts. If they have the equipment, this should be encouraged. If they are not comfortable sharing the material with the club, do not force them to.
Achievement Classes/Ranger/General/requirement 3a
Every young person should have a code by which to shape his life. For the Adventist youth, the Pledge and Law is that code. These must be learned and their principles put into practice.
The Pathfinder Law is for me to:
Law | Meaning |
---|---|
Keep the morning watch | I will have prayer and personal Bible study each day. |
Do my honest part | By the power of God, I will help others and do my duty and my honest share, wherever I may be. |
Care for my body | I will be temperate in all things and strive to reach a high standard of physical fitness |
Keep a level eye | I will not lie, cheat or deceive and will despise dirty talk and evil thinking |
Be courteous and obedient | I will be kind and thoughtful of others, reflecting the love of Jesus in all my associations with others. |
Walk softly in the Sanctuary | In any devotional exercise, I will be quiet, careful, and reverent. |
Keep a song in my heart | I will be cheerful and happy and let the influence of my life be sunshine to others |
Go on God's errands | I will always be ready to share my faith and go about doing good as did Jesus |
Achievement Classes/Ranger/General/requirement 3b
An illustration is something that clarifies or proves a point. Its literal meaning is "to cast light upon." Jesus illustrated many truths through His parables - stories which helped people to understand His message. The requirement to illustrate the meaning of the Pathfinder Law is an opportunity for the Pathfinders to use their imaginations. There are many approaches to illustration, including:
- Art projects
- Drawing
- Painting
- Diorama
- Sculpture
- Comic book
- Collage
- Poster
- Drama
- Skit
- Movie
- Puppet show
- Mime play (silent acting with narration or music)
- Other
- Photography slide show
- Sign Language
- PowerPoint or compatible multimedia presention
- Blog post with text and pictures
Requirement 4 |
Select and read three books of your choice from the teen Book Club List. |
The AY emblem consists of the following elements:
- Cross: The cross appears at the center of the emblem, and represents our salvation.
- Three Angels: The three angels appear on the right side of the emblem and represent our duty to proclaim the three angel's message. (Revelation 14:6-12)
- AY: The letters "AY" stand for Advent Youth, the name of the organization the emblem represents.
- World: The world on the left side of them emblem represents our mission field. (Matthew 28:19-20)
Wilderness Ranger
There are no additional requirements in this section for the Advanced Ribbon.
