"For GOD so loved the world that he gave his one and only SON (JESUS), that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."

John 3:16 NIV

Hi! I am" Rowdy the Clown". I became a Christian as a young child raised in a Baptist clown ministry church. My first encounter with a Gospel clown was at Vacation Bible School. A teenager at my church dressed as a clclown ministry and told Bible stories using a puppet and singing songs clown ministry with all the kids. I thought it was the greatest thing I had ever experienced at church. When she graduated from high school, I asked the VBS director if I could be the clown, I was in the 8th grade at the time. I had no experience or skills, bclown ministrydid have a genuine desire to share Jesus with children in a lively and exciting way.

That was 23 years ago. A lot has changed since then. I studied acting for many years, and even lived in Hollywood. I have always enjoyed performing live and on camera. I have performed as a dramatic actress as well as an improv comedian, but nothing is ever as much fun for me as clowning, especially for Jesus. I have worked as a professional clown for oclown ministry 10 years. I attend grand openings, birthday parties, and clown ministry company picnics every week, but my heart is still and always will be in Gospel clowning. It's fun, funny, and important! I know GOD is using me to changeclown ministryle lives and lead them to Him!

Churches I have performed at recently include the United Methodist in Pearland, The United Methodist in the Woodlands, The Christian Church of Conroe, Forest Cove Baptist in Kingwood, The Northeast Houston Baptist in Atascosita, The Mission Northeast in New Caney, The Strawbridge Methodist Church in Kingwood, and especially my home church Woodridge Baptist in Kingwood, TX. This is ofcourse a partial list, so don't feel bad if I forgot to list your church!

I have had so many opportunities for volunteer work as a Gospel Clown. I have been to food banks, nursing homes, parks, and street fairs sclown ministryg the Good News and perclown ministryng with my other Gospel Clown friends. I know many clowns who travel on mission trips clown ministry or who are serving full time as foriegnclown ministryionaries. Some of my clown friends visit hospitals, prisons, and other places cheering up peoplclown ministry are hurting and lost and telling them about Christs' sacrificial love...with the help of the Holy Spirit and a rubber chicken! This is the great commission!

Christian clowning leaves a lasting impression on children. They listen, laugh, learclown ministry have fun. Best of all, our Heavenly Father gets all the Glory.
