CHILD EVANGELISM FELLOWSHIP (CEF) --

 

Was founded in 1937 by Rev. J. Irvin Overholzer, a man to whom God gave a vision for boys and girls in need of the Saviour.

 

Today, our purpose is still the same -- Child

Evangelism Fellowship is a Bible-centered, world-wide organization, composed of born-again believers whose purpose is to evangelize boys and girls with the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ and to establish (disciple) them in the Word of God and in the local church for Christian living.

 

CEF cares about evangelizing children -- We want to reach the children with the Gospel. Our concern in seeking to evangelize them is that not "one of these little ones should perish."

 

CEF cares about discipling children -- Children

must be established (discipled) in their Christian lives through the Word of God. They need to grow in grace and the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

 

CEF cares about establishing children in Bible-believing churches -- Evangelized children need to be in the local church where they can continue growing on a regular basis. In this way, CEF serves the church and assists in the goal of church growth.

 

Child Evangelism Fellowship of Massachusetts - is committed to the principle of carrying out ministries to children in close relationship, where possible, with local evangelical churches, and to the continuing development of church related ministries as a special emphasis.
