Wednesday Night Clubs

We still need one more Ministry Partner for Wednesday evenings to work with third grade girls—this would fill our roster for Pioneer Girls and Best Friends staff. We also need two more men for the Stockade program on Wednesday evenings. Could this be you? For info about the program and the positions please call Susan Anderson at 714.257.4345.

Children's Ministry Opportunities

Children are in an almost constant state of discovery. They are also very trusting and quick to believe what people tell them. For this reason, we take very seriously our responsibility to love, care for and teach the children at Ev. Free. We introduce your children to God, as we see Him in the Scriptures, in an effort to move each child closer to Him. We know that by doing so, we are actually helping to change the landscape of heaven (John 14:2). We believe that there is a real benefit to having many voices shape the faith of our children and would love to involve more people—people like YOU—in this important work. Begin praying today about how God might use YOU to reach the next generation for Christ.

Chapel On Wheels

When the public schools begin, the release time program Chapel on Wheels will be starting also. There is a need for several more teachers to assist in this program. The “Chapel” is open to all fourth grade children in the Fullerton School district and it is a wonderful outreach into our community. Several people already teaching are from our church. Materials are provided. Classes last for forty minutes. For information contact Stella May (714.879.9246) or Debbie Dickenson (714.526.0168).

The monthly paper drive which helps defray Chapel expenses is held on the first Saturday of each month. Bring your recycled items to the trailer behind B of A (Bastanchury & Harbor), behind Walgreens (Chapman & Raymond), or behind the donut shop (Euclid & Chapman).

Child Evangelism Fellowship

Child Evangelism Fellowship has a new ministry called Tell-A-Story. By dialing 1.888.878.8660 a child can hear a new Bible story every day. If the child wants to hear more about how to become a Christian he is given another number to call. The call will be answered by a Good News Guide (a real person) with whom the child can talk. Good News Guides are trained on how to answer the calls. During the carefree days of summer many children can take advantage of this service, and may even make a decision to follow Christ. Tell your kids and grandkids.

DC4K Brochure & Registration Form

DC4K is a special group to help your children ages 6–12 heal from the pain caused by a separation or divorce and provides your children with a safe and neutral place to recognize and learn to share their feelings.

For thirteen weeks your children become involved with a fun, caring group of volunteers who create a healing community for them to thrive. The weekly session topics help your children learn that God’s love strengthens them and helps them turn their sadness to hope and their anger to joy.

Each session is filled with motivating and exciting activities. Games, crafts, role playing, discussion times, journaling and workbooks help your children process the divorce and move forward in their lives. The music CDs, snacks, read-aloud stories, exercises and Bible verses teach your children to relax and rest secure in God’s love. Children look forward to each time their “DC4K family” gets together. Start your children on the road to healing today!
