CEF Clubs

WHAT THEY ARE....

CEF of Greater Cincinnati, in conjunction with resources from CEF Headquarters, offers various ministry opportunities, one of which is named "After School Good News Clubs"

After-School Good News Clubs are an especially important outreach ministry. We work in cooperation with public schools to supplement the children's education with Biblical principles. Sound Bible teaching helps children grow spiritually and provides positive impact on their personal and home life, community involvement and school performance.

The Supreme Court ruled in 2001 in Good News Clubs v. Milford Central School that Good News Clubs can meet in public schools after school hours on the same terms as other community groups. Thus, churches nationwide are adopting public schools for Good News Club ministry in a partnership with CEF.  Your church can reach out to your community through after-school Good News Clubs!

HOW THEY WORK....

Each week a teacher presents an exciting Bible lesson using colorful materials from CEF Press. This action-packed time with the children also includes songs, Scripture memory, a missions story and review games or other activities focused on the lesson's theme.

The purpose of after-school Good News Clubs is to evangelize boys and girls with the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ and establish (disciple) them in the Word of God and in a local church for Christian living. To accomplish this goal, each club includes a clear presentation of the Gospel and an opportunity for children to trust Jesus as Savior. Each club also includes strong discipleship training to build character and strengthen moral and spiritual growth. All clubbers are encouraged to attend a local church.
