Providing Encouragement
and Focus

Youth workers around the world continue to wrestle with how to disciple young people through pandemic, uncertainty, and loss. Christian Endeavor is connecting with youth workers to provide hope and direction. We are also writing new resources related to mental health and practical ministry insights to encourage and equip local churches.

Dr. Dave taught an online workshop for leaders in Peru as part of the annual LIDEC training event. LIDEC includes workshops and worship gatherings for young leaders across the city of Lima. Through preparation for this event, we found that people connected to Christian Endeavor in Peru, Guatemala, and Mexico understand the networking structure of C.E., but they require further training in several other C.E. Essentials. Steps to provide this training are being planned for 2021.

Dating back over 140 years, Prayer Week was the starting point for the C.E. movement and continues to be a powerful way that young people can pray for and with believers all over the world. Through Prayer Week, Christian Endeavor seeks to provide meaningful ways for young people to glorify God through engaging in prayer and worship, and connecting young believers around the world in united prayer. This year's theme, "Never Stop", is based on Ephesians 6:18 where Paul encourages believers to pray in the Spirit on all occasions! Join in as young people around the world unite through prayer!

GivingTuesday Goal Surpassed!
|
|
By God’s grace and your generosity, we went beyond our goal and raised $10,935 on GivingTuesday! With our subscription package process launch in 2021, these funds help as we look to equip 100 new churches with intentional discipleship tools that empower young people to develop a faith that is deep, daily, and lasting! THANK YOU for your investment in Christian Endeavor and the next generation of moral, godly leaders!

Dr. Dave Coryell was invited to develop critical mini-courses on Youth Empowerment for the international training platform 4/14 Movement. Numerous global ministries are writing courses for this platform, but no one was writing materials for this important area, until now!
Bi-weekly meetings took place for the last year with Dr. Carolyn Arthur (pictured - retired college dean and lifelong Endeavorer), Josh Good, and Dave Coryell to complete the syllabus, outline, and class PowerPoints. The first step was to design a solid college course that once completed can be used as an entire course or as several mini-courses.
As a participant in the writing process, Christian Endeavor Network churches and their leaders around the world will be provided access to this platform that already offers over one hundred mini-courses geared to equip leaders on numerous topics.
