Annual Good News Club Screening & Training

Required for Yearly New and Returning Good News Club® Volunteers

​

Thank you for your decision to volunteer with Child Evangelism Fellowship®. We are excited about all that God is going to do as churches all across the nation share the Gospel with unchurched children in their communities. Following are some important considerations for all who will volunteer and have direct contact with the children through CEF ministries.

In today’s society child abuse and child accusations are occurring daily. Therefore it is important that Child Evangelism Fellowship® (CEF) take steps to protect the children to whom we minister and protect our workers from false accusations.

All volunteers and paid workers are required to undergo a national criminal background check and complete a volunteer application process in accordance with CEF’s Child Protection Policy.

• All volunteers (age 18 and older) and CEF missionaries are required to undergo a national criminal background check.
