Child Evangelism Fellowship (CEF) of Lancaster County will host a drive-through chicken barbecue on Friday, May 6, from 4 to 6 p.m. at its office, 5307 Main St., East Petersburg. All proceeds will benefit CEF's teen summer missionaries.

Peters' Barbecue will provide food for purchase at the fundraiser. Each meal will include a half-chicken, a dinner roll, applesauce, chips, a whoopie pie and a drink. Half-chickens will also be available. Attendees may pick up food without leaving their cars.

CEF's Christian Youth in Action (CYIA) accepted 12 teens, who will teach children about Jesus this summer throughout the county via various programs, including 5-Day Club, vacation Bible school and Camp Good News. As missionaries, the teens must raise their own support, which will be given to them as compensation for the work they do this summer.

The teenagers will complete rigorous training, including a weeklong camp in Hooversville and extensive teaching evaluations. Each teen is thoroughly screened in compliance with CEF's Child Protection Policy, which includes state-required background checks.

Organizers recommend purchasing tickets in advance. For more information, contact Alicha Bixler, children's ministry specialist, at 717-569-5412 or abixler@ceflancaster.org.
