Every Child
Every Nation
Every Day
Our Mission Statement
CEF® was founded by Jesse Irvin Overholtzer in 1937. Growing up in a religious family, Jesse at the age of 12 was convicted of his own sin and sought counsel from his mother. He was told, “Son, you are too young.” It wasn’t until Overholtzer was in college that he heard the Gospel and trusted Christ as his Savior.
Our Vision
We sincerely desire to reach “Every Child, Every Nation, Every Day.” Scripture forms the foundation for this ministry vision.
Every Child
God has given His people a clear commission—to reach every creature with the Good News of the Lord Jesus Christ. Our special mission in CEF is to evangelize every child. (Mark 16:15)
Disciple
CEF is a worldwide ministry serving in every region of the world in an ever expanding way. (Matthew 28:19)
Every Day
We are committed to leading children to be in God’s Word every day. As children grow in their relationship with the Lord through meditating on His Word, they develop godly character, which produces much fruit to the glory of God, including spreading the Gospel to their peers. (Psalm 119:2)
That every child
in Northeast, TN Carter, Johnson, Erwin, Greene, Washington, and Sullivan Counties would have an opportunity to hear and respond to a clear presentation of the Gospel!
