The Greek name Barnabas means “son of encouragement” (Acts 4:36). In the Bible, Barnabas was a disciple known for his mentoring and support that aided Paul in taking the Gospel message throughout Asia minor.
Here in the Tidewater area, we want to take the Gospel into all 147 elementary schools – a mission field of over 76,000 boys and girls (grades K-5th).
In order to do that, the CEF Tidewater Chapter needs a few like Barnabas willing to pray for and consistently financially support our clubs.
