I would suggest loading pf via /etc/rc.conf instead:

pf_enable="YES"          # Set to YES to enable packet filter (pf)
pf_rules="/etc/pf.conf"     # rules definition file for pf
pflog_enable="YES"       # Set to YES to enable packet filter logging

The rc script will load the module if it needs to.  See
/etc/defaults/rc.conf for other variables /etc/rc.d/pf* uses.
