Kids' EE REACHES out to churches with the gospel, GROUNDS children, adults and families in their faith, and EQUIPS them to share Jesus.

WHAT IS NEXT?

Is it too big to think that we could have 2-day workshop training in EACH STATE and CANADIAN PROVINCE before the end of 2007?

This is GOD-SIZED and that's where Kids' EE desires to be … Our Lord assures us, "Just as the Heavens are higher than the earth, so are My thoughts higher than your thoughts and My ways higher than your ways."   Isaiah 55:8-9

Contact mardis@eeinternational.org if your church wants to be a host church in your state for "Family Evangelism and Discipleship" workshops. Please join us in prayer for this God-sized workshop effort.

Be a regular donor (monthly, quarterly or annually). Your gifts will qualify for our Matching Funds grant. "Each one must do just as he has purposed in his heart, not grudgingly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver." (2 Cor 9:7)

You may also wish to donate to special projects:

If you have visitors on Halloween eve, if you participate in a "Harvest Festival" event for kids, or simply wish to create "Welcome" packets for church visitors, consider using Kids' EE tracts and gospel bracelets.

"Farley" tracts can be ordered online at www.eeinternational.org (item # K083). This mini-book tells the Gospel message of how "Farley" can know for sure that he is going to Heaven some day. It even includes a mini spiritual birth certificate and the 5 steps in growing as a Christian.

"Ticket to Heaven" tracts (item # E 051) go well with Gospel beaded bracelets. You can make the Gospel bracelets by purchasing colored beads (from a discount or craft store). Heaven (yellow), Man (dark), God (clear), Christ (red), Faith (white) and Commitment (green) are the colors we use in Kids' EE. String onto twine or elastic in the above order. Involve your kids in making the bracelets ahead of time. They can practice the Gospel as they thread the beads.

• Current Kids' EE presentation script

• Kids' EE Scripture Cards with Illustrations (a helpful tool for children and adults as they practice the Bible verses used in EE)

Send a photo of Farley surrounded by your Kids' EE class to mardis@eeinternational.org

We will send you (by email) a "Farley Photo Album" featuring Farley around the world.

Yes, God is at Work…

God began working on me the moment I left the Kids' EE clinic training at Peoples' Church. I started teaching Kids' EE to my 4th -6th graders the following week and they LOVE it! We placed a huge clear plastic container at our information center with the 2 questions on it. The congregation has been asked to respond to the questions. The kids are now confident enough in themselves and are curious to see just where the "Grown Up's" are in their walk!

I wanted to send you a quick update about Sunday. I told you about the neighborhood kids that are attending our church. I asked several of you to pray for a girl named Ariel. I prayed that the Lord would send Ariel to our preteen service on Sunday morning. I couldn't believe it when she was looking me in the eyes at Sunday School! (God is awesome.) During our preteen service, I did the Bare Bones and the Heart of the Gospel with the kids. At the end of service, Ariel and her friend Sha-Sha prayed to receive Christ!! Wow!! Thank you for all of your prayers. Keep these girls in your prayers; they have a lot of growing to do. Also pray for the rest of the neighborhood kids. This may have been the gates opening for our neighborhood kids.

Once again, thanks for everything!

We had our informational meeting for Adult, Youth and Senior EE the same night. (Last semester, we only had Adult EE. We truly are exploding here at Bell Shoals.) Since we were in the same building, they had to stop by and see what all the noise was. It was kinda fun seeing the eyes of ministers, parents, and older youth as they saw what is happening.

I am overwhelmed with joy. These kids are really ready to take on the community. They are already telling me of all the people they want to share the Gospel with.

This summer we are having Kids' EE on Sunday Nights. The kids are really enjoying the learning and the adults are having fun too! Then, on Wednesday nights when I make visits to newcomers, kids go with me to see Kids' EE in practice. They are excited to see how people respond to the gospel and to see folks trust Jesus as Savior. Thanks for all you do to make my ministry to children more effective!

Hey guys! I just wanted to let you know that we are on our fourth week of Kids' EE! We have 15 kids and 7 team leaders, 3 of which are teenagers from our youth group. I am so surprised and excited with the number of kids we have. I know that it is going to be an awesome semester for us. You guys be praying for us. I am currently trying to plan our first OJT (On-the-Job Training) time. I will keep you updated over the next few months. Love in Christ,

Thanks for praying for Kids' EE at Trinity PCA!

Our church of around 90 folks meets at a Christian High School and today when someone walked into the nursery, there on the table was a homemade stuffed 3-foot doll in overalls with a sign that read "free." Could this be Farley?! I spoke with the woman who agreed to make Farley and she hadn't started on him yet. So, we looked the doll over and decided he would work! Manna from Heaven!

In addition, another person volunteered today to be a Team Leader or do whatever is needed. WOW! I had planned on five team leaders, but we now have six! In addition, my husband told me that the money to cover the cost of Kids' EE materials came in today!

Last week we still didn't have anyone to take my place in helping teach the preschool class and this week two women have volunteered!

Praise God!
