“I just picked up my cross 5-16-08 and started following Jesus.  I been reaching out for help... I don't have no family or anyone that I can called on for help... but I am now just realizing how much that God cares and loves me... I really need spiritual help... I am on 24 hour a day lockdown... I like to ask you to pray for me...”

His Story
Burning Bush & CEF
Thousands of city kids will be receiving one of these new HiSStory booklets created collaboratively by CEF Durham and Burning Bush Creations. The 7MIT and song, with its biblical teachings, are interspersed throughout the booklet. This completed project will allow kids and their families to effectively connect to the story of Jesus. Parents and teachers are encouraged to request copies for use with kids they know and teach.


Christian Community Development Event
A group of CEF Durham staff and supporters will join our friend  Dr. John M. Perkins at his annual CCDA conference in Miami this month.  An exhibit booth has been reserved for CEF to promote its mission and for networking with other urban ministries across the USA. The CEF booth will be next to Burning Bush Creation to launch a new CEF Edition of the HiSStory booklet.

Prayer Connection
Faithful Friends of CEF Durham: Wait upon the Lord and He will renew your strength... Cast all your cares upon Him and He will lift you up... Draw near to God and He will draw near to you...  These Words of God are a present reality to us in the Durham Area Chapter.  Through your faithful prayers, He is making all things good.

Current News:
New! Regarding your prayers for CEF reaching urban kids for Christ...

Resources for under served residents living in the top10 under resourced Durham communities are being developed.

The HiSStory booklets are printed and ready to be used for discipleship of 1,000 children, in area Good News Clubs, after school programs, and kids of prisoners enrolled in the More Than Gold sports camps. HiSStory has incorporated the CEF Mailbox Club, 7MIT and song.



Please pray concerning these needs through October:


1. For children returning to school and forming new friendships

2. For students and teachers being trained at the Urban Center of Light

3. For Good News Clubs starting this fall in schools and communities

4. For staff funding for young/multi-ethnic workers,  ($40K) 

5. For volunteers, tutors, helpers, and supplies to resource after school centers at Carriage House Apts., Youth Life Foundation, Liberty St. Apts., and other taget communities in Durham

6. For concerned city officials to have boldness in asking that CEF and other Christian-based programs be re-instated into the public sector and schools

Thank you for always praying in the Spirit and according to God's Word... Ephesians 6:18-20
