Good News Clubs

What is a Good News Club?


The Good News Club is a weekly, one hour Bible club for children ages 5-12 that includes a Bible lesson with an evangelistic or discipleship emphasis, action-packed songs, life changing memory verses, and fun exciting games that reinforce the truth of the Bible lesson. 

 

Where Does a Good News Club Meet?

Good News Clubs meet in the neighborhood where children live. They meet most often in the friendly atmosphere of a home.   Good News Clubs also meet at community centres, churches or most anywhere children will gather together.

 

 

Who Teaches a Good News Club?

Christians who are concerned for boys and girls work together volunteering their time to teach Good News Clubs. They are trained by Child Evangelism Fellowship to have a club that is exciting and informative so that children will want to keep coming. Teachers sign the CEF Statement of Faith and agree to abide by the policies of the organization.

 

 

What Can a Good News Club do for My Neighbourhood?

A Good News Club can identify a home in the neighbourhood that is safe for a child to go to in time of trouble. It brings the teaching of biblical morality to his neighbourhood. It connects the child and his family to others where they live developing a good community spirit. When you leave your home on Sunday to go to church, others in your neighbourhood know you are religious. When you teach children in your neighbourhood God's Word, your neighbourhood learns what you believe.

Discovery Time
Discovery Time is a ministry of Child Evangelism Fellowship of Manitoba.  Classes are taught weekly in the Elementary Schools at the noon hour or during class time. 

Children enjoy learning about God's love for them and it helps them develop a healthy self-concept and biblical values.

Some 300 men and women teach the Good News to approximately 5000 children in 50+ public schools in Manitoba each week!

  • Four series of six lessons each are taught from October - April, with special lessons at Christmas and Easter. 
     
  • Lively songs help to reinforce concepts
     
  • Bible verses are learned using creative activities.
     
  • Teaching is about Bible characters and Jesus, and teachers do not talk about denominational differences.

Opportunities to teach in our public schools are available!
 

For more information please call CEF of Manitoba at (204) 663-3300 or email cefmb@mts.net.
Fair Ministry
 
The local fair is an ideal opportunity to minister to people in the community! Each year, CEF goes to country fairs, festivals and exhibitions to share the message of salvation through the Wordless Book and Bible stories.  Fairgoers of all ages are given the opportunity to receive Christ as their Savior at the fair, and many people’s lives have been impacted by this ministry over the years.

Will you be a part of what the Lord is doing at the fair? There is a need for workers to volunteer to tell the Wordless Book or Bible Story, simply invite people walking by to hear the story, or just be an adult presence to supervise.

Tel-A-Story
 
 What is Tel-A-Story?  

Children across Canada can call 1-877-456-0456 and hear a new story every day. Stories generously provided by CBH Ministries (Grand Rapids, Michigan) provide boys and girls the opportunity to think like Jesus in every day situations.

Children listen to a three-minute story and if they have any questions they can press zero and speak to a trained, screened counselor. Children ask questions about the story, they mostly ask questions about the reality of God and does He really love them and care for them.

 

Children have so many questions, they want to talk and ask for prayer. We are meeting a need and providing discipleship material to encourage children to have a Biblical worldview.  The calls that are toll-free and are generously supported by churches and individuals who believe that we are making a difference by meeting the spiritual needs of the children. If you would like to donate to Tel-A-Story, contact your local Canadian CEF office or donate on line at Canada Helps. In the meantime share the phone number with a child.

Mailbox Club
As a means of on-going support and follow-up, we encourage the children that attend our programs to enroll in the Mailbox Club™.

The Mailbox Club™ is a Bible correspondence club which can be enjoyed by people of all ages.

Bible lessons are sent by mail to the students. Through these lessons they learn the great truths of the Bible.
 

Children especially love the Mailbox Club™.
It satisfies three of their longings.

1. Children like to belong to a club.

2. Children like to receive mail

3. Children like to learn about God.

If you would like to enrol a child in the Mailbox Club™ contact the CEF office in your province.
