Even if you don't do puppets these clown puppets are a great addition to your clown ministry. Use them to walk around and wave at people in parades. Or let them be a silent clown with a horn in their hand that they can honk instead giving them a voice. You can be their interpreter telling the audience what they said. Or let the people whisper in your ear. These are a great sidekick for your jokes.

Things Every Clown Ministry Should Consider

A clown ministry is an incredible asset to any church or puppet team. People of all ages love clowns. Clowns are great ice breakers and attention getters. They add fun color and excitement to even the most ordinary event. Banks, corporations and business realize this and use them to draw a crowd at grand opening or for advertising events. Churches understand that the kind of energy and fun that is created by clowns is a real drawing card for children and young families. That's why we have clown ministries. But with materials from clowning greats like Randy Christensen we can go beyond only entertaining to impact our audiences. 

 

!. Every Clown Ministry should get good training. 

I love the "can do" attitude of people in so many churches. They see other people doing a clown ministry and they determine in their hearts, "I can do that." And they do...sort of...that is. Maybe you know the kind of team I'm thinking about. Their costumes are sloppy and their makeup is scary and the only people that find them funny are the other team members and committed family members. 

Those kind of clowns are a disgrace to clowning and ministry.. While you don't have to spend a fortune, but do  you need to find out the basic how tos of clowning. A video is always a great place to start. With a video you can go back to the basic on a regular basis so you stayed focused on the essentials of clowning. It is a great way to train new members as they join instead of waiting to train several at a conference when it comes to town.

2. Every clown ministry should look sharp.

 A clown shouldn't look like a contestant at a tacky party. Look professional. You make-up should not look ghoulish, but neat and attractive. Get ideas from professionals without copying.

3. Every clown ministry should practice, practice and then practice some more!

Practice. Practice. Practice. Never stop growing. Video your shows. Watch them for evaluating purposes with the same zeal of a football coach watching the last game. Learn, Look and Listen. Watch your audience. Repeat what works. Eliminate things that don't work.

4. Every clown ministry should keep the humor in good taste. Foul language and vulgarity might be part of culture, but it should never be part of our routine. Be careful that the laughs don't come at the audience's expense.

5. Every clown ministry should never lose sight of your goal. If you are a really good clown and market yourself or your team really well there will be a demand for your services. In our hurry to juggle all the demands of life it is easy to lose focus on what is really important. Never forget your first goal is to serve Christ with the talents and tools you have in your hand.
