Here is what others have said about Explore Weekend: 

  • "The weekend opened my eyes wider to the need for child evangelism. Also, how CEF works and accomplishes its goals.”

  • “I learned what CEF is all about but was also encouraged toward children’s ministry in general.”

  • "I enjoyed all the classes, but the one-on-one approach was the most informative.”
