Big Picture

“Arise, cry out in the night,
at the beginning of the night watches!
Pour out your heart like water
before the presence of the Lord!
Lift your hands to him
for the lives of your children,
who faint for hunger
at the head of every street.”
Lamentations 2:19

50 Days of Prayer for Christmas Party Clubs

So children may know the true meaning of Christmas

We strive to reach 10 million children with the Gospel this year through Christmas Party Clubs. For this to be possible, we must train 200,000 volunteers by hosting 10,000 Christmas Party Club seminars. These volunteers will conduct 300,000 Christmas Party Clubs. Our vision is to see 3 million children receive Jesus as Savior. We pray that these Christmas Party Clubs will open the door to start 30,000 Good News Clubs.

Christmas Party Club is one of the Party Club ministries of Child Evangelism Fellowship® that presents the Gospel to churched and unchurched children. These one-time events are taught by Good News Club® leaders, Sunday school teachers, children’s ministry workers, and other believers who love children. Christmas Party Clubs include a Gospel-centered Bible lesson, games, a memory verse, songs, and more to teach children about the true story of Christmas! Party Clubs can be used as a one-time outreach program, a party for your Sunday school, and more.
