For five consecutive days, one hour each day, children gather to hear Bible stories, sing songs, learn Bible verses, and listen to a missionary story as the Gospel is clearly presented. Another exciting part of the club is the contest! The children receive prizes for attendance, bringing friends, memorizing verses, and completing

The young people come from various local churches and receive two weeks of intensive training before they begin teaching clubs all summer. These young people are supported by CEF and friends and family who become part of their ministry to the children through prayers and financial support.
