Default Rufus - New Clown introduction

I am an ordained minister who has always been a clown. I became an "official" clown as Rufus 4 years ago. I enjoy visiting in hospitals, nursing homes, and doing activities for our church preschool and daycare. Rufus is a hobo clown - one who tries hard but things never quite work out the way he expected. But things will get better!

In some sense, I think that clowns and ministers share an awful lot in common. So the two together are a good fit. Welcome to the forum!
