About Adventure Pals

Adventure Pals is a weekly radio and television program produced by Christian Children's Associates, Inc. Especially focused for children, it is a program that the entire family can enjoy.
Adventure Pals has been used of the Lord to bring many precious boys, girls and adults to a saving knowledge of our Lord.
Founded by former Director and host "Miss Jean" Donaldson in 1968, and incorporated under Christian Children's Associates in 1973, Adventure Pals is the outreach of a non-profit organization, existing entirely by the donations of our audience, susbcribers and supporters.

Why We Exist

Because crime, drug use and immorality of all kinds are ever on the increase, our youth are being affected by what they see, read, hear, and where they go. The average 16-year-old has spent more hours before the TV than they have spent in school or with their parents!
In a world in which moral relativism and sin are more and more the norm, our cultures are neglecting to teach simple, indesputable truths to our children.
Worse yet, many parents and churches in competition with mainstream culture are failing to instill the indesputable and ultimate truth of Jesus Christ into their children's lives.
Christian Children's Associates and its volunteers have been called by faith to minister to these youths; to help them to know the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal Saviour.
We live in urgent days.

How We Work

God has given Christian Children's Associates a unique and fantastic ministry. We can reach children right where they are: in their homes, their cars... anywhere there is a radio. As many boys and girls own their own radios and almost every home in the US has at least one TV, this allows us to reach millions across the globe with the message of Christ's love and his offer of salvation.

Our primary outreach is the Adventure Pals radio broadcast, available in 15 and 30 minute forms in 36 states and various countries across the globe (you can check our listings by clicking the button on the sidebar). But this is only the beginning.
We encourage communication with our pals, through mail, and through e-mail. We recieve letters daily, telling us of our impact on childran's lives, of the needs of many families, and the hope that Christ has brought to many boys and girls.
Our volunteers respond faithfully to all of the mail that we recieve, and encourage our listeners' growth in many ways.

Our primary growth outreach is a Bible Correspondance Course (again, check out the sidebar for a sample), offered free to whoever asks for it. It is currently in use by several mission groups, outreach programs, and even christian schools as a means to help God's children of all ages to better understand His Word.
In addition to this, our monthly magazine, Kid's Talk (free .pdf for printout available on the sidebar), is another means by which we can engage and teach kids around the world. With special activities, audience submissions, and articles that reach deeper than our stories, Kid's Talk compliments our radio ministry with a much more active medium.


About Christian Childrens Associates

Who We Are

CCA is staffed by over 80 Volunteers, who spend hundreds of hours each month preparing literature, making give-aways, producing programs, answering kid's mail and correcting lessons, writing scripts, preparing mailings, and publishing our monthly pamphlet, Kid's Talk.

What We Believe

Romans 10:9
"...if you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus Christ and shall believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved"

John 3:16
"For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

We believe:
That "all Scripture is given by inspiration of God".
In the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
In the Personality and Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ.
In the death, resurrection and personal return of Jesus Christ.
That salvation comes through the acceptance of Christ as Savior by faith alone.

How Can I Help Adventure Pals?

First and foremost, prayer.
Pray for the kids who hear our broadcast, and do our Bible lessons, and read our publications, that the Holy Spirit may teach them God's truth.
Pray for our volunteers, that the Spirit may speak through our work, and that we may be encouraged to continue in God's Will.
And pray for our ministry. It is a dangerous thing to ask God that a ministry be expanded, as such expansion brings both risk and responsibility. Pray that we will be up to the task when new opportunities arrive.

Secondly, and more obviously, your financial support goes a long way.
Most people don't realize that even though we are a nonprofit organization, and that though many Christian radio stations are nonprofit as well, we still have to pay to be on the air wherever we are.
Though God's awesome grace has kept us going through the recent economic troubles, we have had to cut some stations in order to maintain fiscal responsibility.
So we do need your financial help to keep reaching boys and girls around the nation and around the world.

You can donate two ways. Firstly, there is a link at the bottom of the page that will take you to a special PayPal donations page, through which you can donate through credit card, debit card, or PayPal account.
Secondly, you can mail your donation to
P. O. BOX 446
Toms River, NJ 08754
In either case, please remember to include your name and mailing address with your donation, as your gifts are tax deductable, and we want to be able to get you a receipt.

Lastly, you can help by talking to your local Christian radio station about Adventure Pals. If you can hear us locally, tell the station how much you enjoy listening to us. If you can't hear us locally, let your favorite Christian station know about the awesome kids' show, Adventure Pals, how much you'd love to hear it on the air, and let them know how to get to our site.
It may seem a little odd, but that's how radio works: There are cases in which we're on the air because a station likes us and has time to fill. There are other cases in which stations have gone out of their way to find a local sponsor for our program. And there have been other cases in which we've had the money to be on the air, but the station has had to turn us down because they didn't think enough people were listening.
Broadasting is a complicated field, yes; but in the end it comes down to you, the listener.
