Big Picture

5-Day Club®

“Towards the end of club, while most of the children were joining in on a fun game, Kendal wanted to simply sit and talk with Emily. While trying to decide what to talk with her about, Emily remembered how Kendal had been fascinated with her Wordless Book during club. She asked Kendal if she would like to hear the story that went with the colorful little book. Emily taught through the entirety of the story, and when she gave the invitation to receive Christ as Savior, Kendal said yes!”

Now, more than ever, children need the Gospel

Children today face an increasingly dangerous and hopeless world. Unchurched families in every country—and even locally, in your own community—have no legacy of faith to pass on to their children. They do not know the reason for our hope.

A 5-Day Club meets kids right where they are

Placed right in their neighborhoods, a 5-Day Club is easy for a child to access on their summer break. Teachers are trained and equipped to lead action-packed 5-Day Clubs for one solid week, delivering the timeless truths of the Bible in exciting, engaging ways. Children learn the Gospel, and many come to know Jesus as their Savior.

This summer, you can bring the Gospel to children

5-Day Clubs only happen because of people like you! You can help organize and lead a club in your neighborhood or at your church. You can support our work training and equipping teachers with your donations. And most importantly, you can pray for this ministry!

Incredible Joy

Chrisanne Drangsholt, CEF of North Dakota, Inc., Northwest Chapter

“The little ones started out shy, but by the end of the first day of 5-Day Club, they were begging to come back. As the third day of club ended, one little boy proudly ran up to his mom and announced that he had asked Jesus into his heart! What an incredible joy!”

Supernatural Power

Erin, CEF of Minnesota, Inc., Twin Cities Chapter

“I got to see a young girl’s life change my first week. One day, when I asked people to raise their hands if they wanted to believe in Jesus, she did. I was able to talk to her about Jesus and she wanted to trust in Him. She was so excited to learn more and had so many questions. It was clear that a change happened in her heart after she believed in Jesus. The amazing thing is, the day she believed in Jesus, it was supposed to thunderstorm all day, but it didn’t. God moved the rain so that a girl could come to club and believe in him.”
