Clown Pie Hi From New Clown

Hi everyone, My clown name is "JIMS" which mean Jesus is My Savior. I started last year in the clown ministry at my church. I am the only one at my church clowning, started training last April at the Clown Jubilee in Charleston WV, and just came back from Williamsburg VA at the Circus Magic, which was great! I am starting a little late in life at 51. I just found this forum the past few days! So Hi!!

Hi JIMS! 51 is really just 5 + 1 which is 6! A lot of times it was the older circus performers that became the clowns so you're still at a perfect age! Welcome to the Clown Forum!

Welcome to the Forum Jims. You will find many of the clowns here do at least some ministry clowning. There is a section of collected posts that are minisrty related, you may find something interesting in the old threads.

Another good resource is Clown Ministry

Hi Jims from a fellow PA clown. I'm not sure where Abbottsville is. I'm about 1/2 hr above Phila. Check out clownfest.com it's held each Sept at the Jersey shore. Glad you found us.

Hi LollyPlop, Abbottstown if halfway between Gettysburg and York on Rt. 30. You wouldn't have just come from Circus Magic? Sound like someone I met there at the banquet Saturday night?
