As a family, the Brown's first got involved with Camp Good News while being part of a team to cook the meal for new staff arriving for Camp. They fell in love with CGN and felt the Lord was calling them into the ministry as a family. "God called us to work together as a team to reach the children of Maine by being faithful support staff at camp." They officially joined the staff at CGN in 2016 and Jeremy became the Maintenance Director and Sarah became the Camp Kitchen Supervisor. In 2023 the Lord moved Jeremy into the role of Camp Director.

Sadly, today's children are living in a God-less culture. Daily, our children are being exposed to drugs, alcohol, sex, violence, materialism, eating disorders, filthy images, and language. Children are embracing these activities to escape or numb the pains of life. They are crying out to be loved and accepted at any cost. Tragically, many children have never heard of their Creator God and the everlasting love that He has for them. Could you imagine an environment that is saturated with love, learning, and living that is based on the Bible and it's teachings? Camp Good News ministers to our youth in a God-centered environment. In Deuteronomy 6:7, God has commanded us to "teach them (God's commands, decrees, and laws) “You shall teach them diligently to your children; and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise”. 

When children come to camp for a week, they are saturated in an environment that is devoted to camper's spiritual growth. God opened Jeremy’s eyes and showed him that children are important to God, If we are not reaching children for the Lord, the world will fill their hearts and minds full of lies that the God of this world, Satan, wants them to believe.

We, Team Brown, have been called by God to use our gifts and talents for Him at Camp Good News as it ministers to the youth. Jeremy and Sarah have been married for over 20 years and have 3 wonderful children, Cameron (wife Natalie), Ethan, and Asia. 

"that the next generation might know them, the children yet unborn, and arise and tell them to their children, so that they should set their hope in God and not forget the works of God, but keep His commandments" Psalm 78:6-7.
