Policy Relative to "Speaking in Tongues"

Often people who adhere to the modern “Tongues Movement” desire to work with us in the Child Evangelism Fellowship of Eastern PA, Inc.

Past experience has shown that when this has been allowed, because of doctrinal differences, confusion results and the work of reaching children for Christ suffers.

The State Board therefore has found it necessary to implement the following policy:

The Child Evangelism Fellowship of Eastern PA, Inc. will not accept or allow to remain in its organization or program anyone who speaks in, or aspires to speak in, ecstatic utterances, commonly referred to as “tongues.”

Therefore, in order to implement this Policy on the State and County level, the State Board of Child Evangelism Fellowship of Eastern PA, Inc. requires all Committee Members, Directors, Teachers, and Volunteer Workers to sign without reservation this Policy Relative to "Speaking in Tongues."
