The CHILDREN MINISTRIES is one of the ministries of Child Evangelism Fellowship of the Philippines.

The purpose is to reach the multitudes of children whom no one else is reaching with the gospel, to build up these children through faithful and systematic teaching of God’s Word and to encourage them daily devotions, witnessing for the Lord, regular church attendance and active interest in missions.

What are these?

  • GOOD NEWS CLUB®  (GNC™)

This is a neighborhood Bible Class for Children taught by trained teachers from evangelical churches.  Boys and girls gather with their playmates and friends to sing, learn Bible verses, hear and see a visualized Bible story.  The class which meets in the neighborhood provides an opportunity for participation and creates interest in God’s Word.

  • 5-DAY CLUB®

Done during summer, boys and girls are gathered in backyards, vacant lots, parks and playgrounds for one hour each day for five consecutive days.  They are taught the way of salvation through a Bible Lesson.  A missionary story, Bible verse and songs are also taught.  Children are enrolled in a correspondence course as one way of follow – up.  Almost similar to the Vacation Bible School, only that this is done outside the church and in the neighborhood to reach those children whose parents are not willing to let them attend a VBS in the church.

  • OPEN AIR EVANGELISM

The children are reached in the streets, playground, parks and other places where the Gospel is presented to them through the wordless book.  The children reached here are usually channeled to a Good News Club, or a New Good News Club is opened in their  area  afterwards.

  • STREET CHILDREN MINISTRY

A special ministry aimed at changing lives and bringing the Gospel to the street children.

  • CHILDREN CAMPS AND RALLIES

A seasonal evangelistic program, children from the Good News Clubs and other related ministries are gathered together in a special place where they are taught the message of salvation and / or way of growing in Christ.

  • CHRISTMAS CLASS

A special class and party for children, this brings home the message why we celebrate Christmas and introduce the children to the celebrant Himself, the Lord Jesus Christ. 

We also have SPECIAL MINISTRIES for children and these are the:

This program aims to train saved children to share their faith to other children.  Usually, an open air evangelism is being done in parks, playgrounds and streets where there are many children playing and roaming around.  These young evangelists are guided by trained and experienced volunteer teachers or counselors.  

  • CHILDREN’S MISSIONARY CONFERENCE

This is a whole day affair designed to invite children from different local Bible-believing churches for fellowship.  The primary aim is to  make them  aware and participate in the children missions work by praying, giving and sharing their faith to other children.

  • CHILDREN’S EVANGELISTIC CRUSADE

One of the aims is to train Sunday School teachers who will act as counselors during the crusade.  We need the cooperation of local evangelical churches to carry out this project.  It is also our aim to channel the children reached through the crusade to the nearest local Bible-believing church, thus increasing the attendance in Sunday School.
