GET STARTED WITH QUICK START TRAINING
So you’re going to start a Good News Club! Congrats on this step of faith! Get ready to watch God work in the hearts and minds of children in your club.
In preparation, CEF will help equip you through a series of quick training sessions designed with you in mind: Good News Club Quick Start Training!
- The sessions are tailored to the needs of new teachers or those who want further training.
- Each session gives you what you need to successfully teach children in your club.
- How to teach the three essential parts of Good News Club (Bible lesson, Memory Verse and Wonder Time)
- You will also learn how to pull these elements together into a weekly club your kids will love.
Quick Start Training is a multi-media and live training that is scheduled for a full day (7 to 8 hours). We schedule Quick Start training as needed to start a new Good News Club. And, we schedule Quick Starts before the start of a school semester. They are required by all new volunteers or recommended as a refresher for returning volunteers.
