    Children's Ministries Institute in Missouri in August through November.

Thank you for joining me in prayer and seeing God do exceedingly abundantly
above all that we can ask or think.
Gratefully,

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.
