Punkin,

Do you have any theme you are trying to follow? That will help. I usually end up doing most of my stuff right now alone since I'm at a new church and just starting the program...so I do have a few but some direction on what theme you are looking for would help...

Hey Taco!

Since my main clowning isn't Christian Clowning.......and I'm just starting to do some of it, I want to convey a message of "the goodness of Christ". I saw one of my fellow clowns do a skit where he used balloons. The balloon kept popping on him and he would look to the heavens, until finally the balloon miracuoulsy turns into a cross. If I could do something like that, it would be great!!!!

Thanks..........PUNKIN :-)

I got this one on-line. I have modified it. I ask the kids, "can you name some things we do wrong?" They say Lie, steal, etc...I write all these on the board. then I ask what is one word that describes them all. If one of them doesn't say "sin" I allow some adult prompts or just say it myself, and write the word sin in the middle of all the others, draw a heart around all the words and go from there. Hope this helps. Fuzzle B.

At a Pacific Northwest Fellowship of Christian Magicians Creative Ministries Conference I saw a lecturer demonstrate an object lesson. (I don’t remember for sure who the lecturer was.) He used a black magic marker to write the word sin several times on a white dry erase board. He invited somebody to use a cloth to erase the black permanent ink, but it would not come off. Then he scribbled over the black ink using a red dry erase marker. He said the red ink represented the blood of Christ. Now when he used the cloth, both the black and red ink came off. (This works because the solvent in the dry erase marker dissolves the permanent marker ink.)

I bought a puppet (its a monster puppet) with no face that has velcro eyes, brows, nose, moutth, arms, ears and horns. I have the kids help me put the features on (always messing up where they go) and then we put them on right exactly where the kids want them to be. Then we name him and give him the job of not scaring little children. Well, he decides he does want to scare little children. How does that make us feel? Sad, because we had such wonderful plans for him. This is what God did. He made us and has a great plan for our lives but we often ignore him. The kids really relate to this. God bless you as He uses you to minister to his kids.
