"Doing Good News Clubs at public schools through Child Evangelism Fellowship is one of the most fruitful and effective ways to build Christ's kingdom that I presently know of."
Pastor Daniel Keaton
Why Good News Club?
Since nearly 75% of children do not go to church to hear of the Good News of Jesus, CEF® is taking the Good News to them through the after-school Good News Club®. This dynamic Bible club is held just about anywhere the children can easily and safely meet with their parent’s permission.
Local Champions
Good News Clubs only happen because of people like you! You can help organize and lead a club in your home, at your church, or in your school.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can we really teach the Bible in schools?
Yes! The Gospel has been taught freely in public schools all over the world for some time. Now children in the U.S. have that opportunity, too! In 2001 the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Good News Clubs v. Milford Central School that Good News Clubs can meet in public schools in the United States after school hours on the same terms as other community groups. Children attend Good News Club only with their parents’ permission.
What is taught in Good News Club?
Each week an exciting Bible lesson using colorful materials from CEF is presented. This action-packed time also includes songs, Scripture memory, a missions story and review games or other activities focused on the lesson’s theme.
Who teaches Good News Club?
Christians who are concerned for the spiritual well-being of boys and girls work together volunteering their time and energy to teach Good News Clubs. They are trained by Child Evangelism Fellowship to conduct an exciting and informative club so that children will want to keep coming. Teachers are required to agree with the CEF Statement of Faith and agree to abide by the policies of the organization. Adults working with the program are screened according to our child protection policy to ensure the safety of all the children.
