Description

The Fellowship of Evangelical Children's Workers was born in 1992 out of the knowledge that children's evangelists tend to be a rather independent lot. We believed there was a need for us to foster the feeling of working together and networking, rather than the tendency to look upon each other as competition. In order to accomplish this, Wayne Bertness spent many hours and many dollars on the phone, talking to every children's speaker he heard about, and compiling the most comprehensive list of children's speakers in Canada. The main focus at that time was trying to interest them in a joint advertising project, the FECW Directory, which was sent, free of charge, to every evangelical church in Canada for which we could find an address. The Bertness Family did the phoning, organizing and layout every year as a ministry, absorbing printing and mailing costs that were often more than what came in from those who advertised.
