The Good News and Peanuts “Good Grief, Charlie Brown, it’s time for Mingus summer camp again!” As followers of Jesus Christ we try to bear spiritual fruit. And that fruit is: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and selfcontrol. To help us learn how to live with these qualities, we will be relying on our friends Charlie Brown, Lucy, Linus, their friends and, of course - Snoopy! While we’re having fun with these characters, we will also be enjoying a week of nature appreciation, hiking, fishing, campfires, camp songs, games, crafts and, the best part, meeting new friends. Come join the Peanuts gang and bring a friend!
