Camp Good News Illinois

Camp Good News Illinois Camp Good News is a place where Jesus Christ transforms lives through Biblical Teaching, Meaningful Relationships, and Outdoor Adventures.

Since 1955, Camp Good News® has ministered to children from across Illinois in fun and exciting ways. Thousands of kids have heard the good news of Jesus Christ and have been encouraged to grow in their relationship to God. Children without a home church are encouraged to find one through our partnership with local Bible-believing churches. God uses this ministry in marvelous ways! In recent years

, the ministry has grown from primarily a summer camp to a year round ministry. In addition to 8 weeks of camp, we host an archery club, father-son retreats, and Awana (in partnership with Bethany Community Church). Today's children more than ever need the life transforming power of the Gospel. Unplugging from a non-stop pace of life and learning about the God of the Bible will always be the purpose of this ministry by God's grace. Check out our website at www.CampGoodNewsIL.org

Camp Good News is a ministry of Child Evangelism Fellowship® of Illinois. To find out about other CEF® ministries in your area visit www.CEFofIllinois.com or www.CEFOnline.com

Teachable moments around a crackling fire have a way of sticking. In the quiet glow, conversations go deeper, wisdom feels personal, and truths take root—often shaping decisions for years to come.
