Individuals
As noted above, individuals can volunteer in a Club or other ministry listed on our Ministries page to help reach children with the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.
The safety of the children and workers in our ministry is a priority. Therefore, all volunteers and paid workers are required to undergo a background check and complete a volunteer application process. We provide the training you need to equip you with basic skills and effective methods to evangelize children and immediately begin your ministry outreach.
Churches
Quite simply, when churches partner with Child Evangelism Fellowship to reach children in their communities, lives change and churches grow.
Good News Clubs are an excellent way to fulfill the Great Commission since children are open and ready to hear the gospel and learn about the Lord. Children from your church can show God’s love and concern for their school friends by inviting them to club and these club members’ families can be invited to church as part of outreach.
CEF takes care of the major logistics of getting a club started such as contacting the schools, providing insurance, and training and mentoring volunteers. Churches come to the partnership with the most important ingredient – God’s people. A small team of just a few people can bring the gospel to school children.
