Clowning for Christ



We at Clowning for Christ International are dedicated to the teachings of Jesus Christ and are focused on the great commission:

"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. (trof note: and whacking them each and every one verily in the backside with a big ol' slapstick and, lo, performing the Holy Pratfall, and even unto cramming all the disciples into that funny little Morris Mini.) And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age".

(Matt 28: 19,20 NIV)



Who we are
We are a Christ Centered, Bible believing Ministry and our goal is to spread the Gospel through our unique clown performance in the foreign mission field as well as in local churches here in the United States. In addition to our performance ability we also teach a professional level of clowning to all Christian clowns as well as secular clowns.

I just...I just...I...oh nevermind.
Go on back to whatever you were doing.

1. I'm sure they're good at amusing good Christian children
but have they ever converted anyone? Who would believe what a clown tells them?

4. Christ-centered??
Edited on Mon Oct-27-03 12:01 PM by qwertyMike
Does that mean you just focus on the teaching of J. Christ, and not all that Old testament Mumbo Jumo?

You know like
Marxist=writings of Marx
Aristotelian=teachings of A
Buddhist and so on.
Teachings of christ can be written on a single sheet of paper.
Kinda like "Be good to eachother"
That to me is a Christian.

They're two of the biggest clowns on the face of the earth.
