Our Purpose

Reaching Children

Our passion is to reach children with the gospel of Jesus Christ!

Our purpose is three-fold:

To evangelise children with the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.
To disciple them in the Word of God.
To establish them in a Bible-believing church for Christian living.

A study by George Barna reports that if a child has not received Jesus Christ as Saviour by the time he is 14, there is only a 4% chance that he will between the ages of 14 and 18, and a 6% chance that it will occur in the remainder of life.

Join us in the most fruitful mission field – the children!

Reaching Children Worldwide

Child Evangelism Fellowship is the world’s largest mission agency ministering to children. Last year CEF reached nearly 8.1 million children in over 157 countries! With our unique ministries, training and materials we carry out the Great commission.

Child Evangelism Fellowship takes the truth of God’s Word into the heart of Africa, throughout Asia, the Pacific, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East and North America. Through the ministry of CEF boys and girls have heard the good news since 1937.

What began as a Bible club in a home has grown into a worldwide ministry. Right now children all around the world are hearing about the love of Jesus Christ.

Reaching Children in South Africa

The ministry of Child Evangelism Fellowship South Africa, started in 1947. This was ten years after CEF was founded by Jesse Irvin Overholtzer in 1937. Celebrating 60 years of ministry to our children in South Africa brings back many memories. Through many years there were faithful men and women serving in this organization. Some have left our ranks to another calling but God’s faithfulness through all the years is clearly visible.

Who Cares?

Who cares about the child who was never allowed to see the sky;
the child who, so young, was never meant to die.
Who cares about the child who is undeniably all alone;
the child with no family, no friends, no home to call his own.

Who cares about the child whose talents are forever unknown;
the child with disease and handicap, abandoned to an overcrowded home.

Who cares about the child who is cruel and filled with bitterness;
