Child Evangelism Fellowship® was founded in 1937 by Rev. J. Irvin Overholtzer, a man with a God given vision for boys and girls in need of the Savior. His vision continues to live on today.
CEF reaches the children with the Gospel so that “not one of these little ones should perish.” (Matthew 18:14)
CEF is presently involved in over 170 countries, with over 1,400 staff members. Our emphasis overseas is to develop national workers and leaders. CEF is active in every state and province in North America.
“And they brought young children to him,
Mark 10:13-16
that he should touch them:
and his disciples rebuked those that brought them. But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child,
he shall not enter therein. And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them,
and blessed them.”
