  • Dear Praying Friend,

    "For as the earth brings forth its sprouts, and as a garden causes what is sown in it to sprout up, so the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to sprout up before all the nations," Isaiah 61:11.

    GOD'S UNIMAGINABLE ANSWERS TO PRAYER:

    1. Thankful for the 13 students, 5 instructors and 1 interpreter that came to Florida to complete the French Dynamics of Teacher Training Course.

    2. Giving God thanks for what has begun to sprout in the French countries for teacher training and the lives that will be changed because of it.

    3. Grateful for God raising up a coordinator for the Junior Youth Challenge ministry in the Caribbean.

    4. Thankful for the Easter Party Club trainings that are planned and taking place.

    PRAYER REQUESTS:

    1. How grateful we are to God for His provision, goodness, and mighty works during the week of the French Dynamics of Teacher Training Course in Florida to complete the course in person. What a joy it was to see them become a family and watch them work hard to develop as teacher trainers. Pray as they return home and plan for their first Super Seminar/training/conference and work as a team in the country.

    2. Thirteen of the students from Haiti were not able to travel to Florida and the course was recorded. Two of the instructors from Haiti are making plans to complete the course there for them. Pray as Rodia and Marceline schedule this around the arrival of materials and safety for the students.

    3. God has raised up a coordinator for the Junior Youth Challenge ministry. It is Melissa James, and she is from St. Kitts & Nevis. Pray as she begins this new role and for Renwick, Kelston, Bev, and I to have God's wisdom and direction in planning the first training course for timing and location.

    4. Our trip to Grenada is still a go! Bev and I travel April 4 to 13, to help with a TCE 1 course, plan an Instructors of Teachers Course and talk with potential instructors. This will be our 60th trip to the Caribbean. How we thank God for this special milestone with a shout of praise and thanks.

    5. Join us in praying for God's provision for financial needs and visas and removal any obstacles for those desiring to travel to the International Conference, May 19-24, in North Carolina. Thank you for being a partner who is devoted to praying for the ministry. I am grateful for you as we see righteousness and praise sprout up before the nations.

    Gratefully, Janet

I grew up in a small country town in Pennsylvania in the US and each week our bus driver would drop us off at a neighborhood home to attend a Good News Club. Each week I would hear of God’s love and salvation through two faithful teachers. One week when I was 10 years old, I accepted Christ as my Savior.

When I was 12 years old, I had opportunity to be a helper at the Vacation Bible School at my home church. It was here that I quickly realized my love to work with children and teach them the gospel. After attending university, I was an elementary school teacher for several years. I volunteered with Child Evangelism Fellowship (CEF) during the summers. From these experiences and mentoring leaders, the Lord called me to serve Him with Child Evangelism Fellowship full time.

My Current Role at CEF Canada
I serve as the Education and Literature director for the North America/ Caribbean Region. I oversee the training programs, train teachers and leaders, and equip and support teacher trainers in the 26 countries in the Caribbean. As Literature director I work with translation and printing of the literature for French, Dutch, Creole, and Papiamento.

About Child Evangelism Fellowship Canada (CEF Canada)
Child Evangelism Fellowship (CEF) was established in 1937 and the mission is to evangelize children with the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ and to establish (disciple) them in the Word of God and in a local church for Christian living. The major ministries are Good News Clubs during the school year and 5-Day Clubs throughout the summer. Volunteers are trained to reach the children in over 200 countries around the world. Every Child, Every Nation, Every Day.
