Welcome to Child Evangelism Fellowship of Washington State, Tri-Cities Chapter. (March 2020) Ministry has a different look in light of the corona-virus quarantine. There are no active Good News Clubs in schools as schools have been shut down. CEF has implemented a virtual plan called Good News Across the Web and some chapters are reaching the children virtually through this program. Another program being used is the U-NITE KIDS videos on U-Tube. Children can access Good News Club videos of Bible Lessons, Memory Verses and Songs, all the time, all free. And check out other free resources at cefonline.com/covid19 Shut-in children can call our Tel-a-Story number daily and hear a different Bible story each day of the year. Listeners also have the option to personally speak to a Tel-a-Story Guide, following the story, if they have questions or want to respond to the invitation to put their faith in Christ. The 24 hour, toll-free number to reach Tel-a-Story is 1-888-878-8660. All of the audio stories can also be accessed online at https://www.cefofwa.com/tas If you know children who are struggling with why this is all happening, you can share with them this free resource, "Do You Ever Wonder Why?" This booklet was written following the disaster of 9/11 and has now been done as a video, available to anyone with internet access. You can also order physical booklets from https://cefpress.com/ Please be praying for the saved children to continue leaning on God for support during these trying times, for unsaved children to hear and respond to the Gospel, and for volunteers to see how they can still be used even in times of quarantine. Honored to be a bond servant of Jesus Christ, Shelley Fietkau, Local Director Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven."
