Every year Child Evangelism Fellowship erects a free-standing castle in Fun Land at the San Diego County Fair in Del Mar, Ca. Boys and girls and adults are invited into the Story Castle to hear a Gospel message using the Wordless Book. Children and adults are given the opportunity to receive the Lord into their life. Every child receives a gospel bracelet and a packet with 2 tracts and a mini wordless book to take home. If the children do not have a Bible of their own they receive one.​Every summer during the month of June and July over 2,500 children, teens and adults visit the castle and hear the story. Each day is divided into three 4-hour shifts and a team of 3 is needed for each shift.  Those working in the booth are trained and screened. ​We welcome volunteers to join CEF and take part in this ministry.​

 

​Email sdfairministry@gmail.com or call (619) 469-8593 to reserve your shift.
