A week spent teaching the elements of clown ministry to hundreds of people, by Tom Raymond

What do you get if you mix two clowns, 700 students, and 3 classes twice a day? You get extremely tired. You also get the opportunity to plant the seeds of clown ministry across the nation.

My wife & I were recently given the opportunity to present 3 classes, twice daily, at the Faith on Fire Camporee hosted by the Seventh Day Adventist Church. We’re not Adventists, but we will preach the gospel wherever the opportunity presents itself, and so we went. We were given roughly 4 hours each morning and afternoon to present classes introducing Balloon Animals for Ministry, an introduction to Clown Ministry, and a practical introduction to designing and applying your unique clown face.
