With our unique ministries – training and resources – we seek to carry out the great commission.
More about CEF and our vision
Every child
We want every child to have an opportunity to hear the gospel at least once.
Every nation
We want children in every nation to have access to the gospel through an established CEF ministry.
Every day
We want children, who have put their trust in Jesus, to grow in their faith every day.
We were all so encouraged by our Christmas event!
It was great having material, which was easy to use, clear and gospel focused – it made it easier for me to have other members of our church become involved who may not be as confident in their gifting at teaching children.
I fully appreciate the time and effort you have put into these resources and I look forward to what may be next!

Founded in 1937
CEF was founded in USA by Jesse Irvin Overholtzer
Introduced to Britain in 1947
Mr. & Mrs. D. Wisner came to the UK for 6 months to demonstrate CEF lesson materials.
The work became permanent when, in 1950, the first CEF missionaries from USA, Mr. Art and Mrs. Lucille Nickel, arrived in Britain. They established the first National Office in Cardiff.
Still growing!
The ministry continues to grow around the world in over 200 countries.
God is blessing the work of CEF Britain, but there is still much more to be done!
