Welcome to the Golden Rule Christian Endeavor Union - Washington, D.C. website!

What is Christian Endeavor?

Christian Endeavor (CE), since its beginning on February 2, 1881 by Rev. Francis Clark, is now the largest and oldest Christian youth organization in the world.  Its purpose is to lead young people (also children and adults) to accept Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord; to sustain and train them for the service of Christ and His cause.  Christian Endeavor societies are generally sponsored by a local church, which determines theology, program and activities.  Christian Endeavor is interdenominational, interracial, and international.  It continues to be a Bible-based, Christ centered youth ministry a program that has a proven track record over the past 120+ years.
