(USA)–Evangelism Explosion is at the head of a movement reaching kids with the Gospel. Evangelism Explosion’s Karen Gushta works with ‘Kids’ EE’, specifically geared to train youth leaders, who in turn, teach the kids. “We see that we should be talking about a 4/14 window. The opportunity is there to reach kids at this time when they are very open to receive Jesus Christ as their Lord. So, we want to train and equip children to be reaching their peers, their friends, their brothers and sisters and others with the Gospel.” Gushta says the program is growing, and asks people to pray for the team leaders. “Kids’ EE is now in 35 countries; it’s on every continent. We’re just having such a great response overseas. Right now, we do have a clinic that’s just about to start in Zambia. One of our field representatives has already trained 73 children’s leaders and pastors in eastern Africa.”
