Child Evangelism Fellowship® is a Bible-centered, worldwide organization composed of born-again believers whose purpose is to evangelize boys and girls with the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, to disciple them in the Word of God and establish them in a local church for Christian living. CEF of East Texas is the state office of the international ministry.
CEF has built the foundation of children’s ministry from the Lord’s call to “go into all the world and preach the Good News to all creation” Mark 16:15, with a focus on reaching children, as "...your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should perish" Matthew 18:14. With a vision to reach 1 million Texas children with the Gospel, CEF East Texas partners with churches and the faith community to share the truth and love of Jesus.

Summer clubs are taught by CYIA™ teens and adults that reach kids with the Good News of Christ at parks, neighborhood centers, apartment complexes, shelters and trailer communities.
