| Some of My Puppetry Background |
| Q: Why do you write puppet scripts? What motivates you? |
| Love to minister to children while using puppets. Writing the puppet scripts allow specific targeting of the spiritual needs of the kids in our church. Teaching teenagers how to work puppets and write scripts helps them to take ownership of their ministry gifts. |
| Q: Tell us about your church or puppet organisation. |
| Not answered yet. |
| Q: How did you get started in puppets and what attracted you to this area? |
| As a former youth pastor, the responsibilities of starting a childrens church were delegated to me by the senior pastor. Not knowing how to properly start this type of ministry, turning to others became a life line. During the process, I quickly realized it was easier to raise up a child in the way he or she should walk, than to reform them when they got older. |
| Q: Where does your inspiration come from to write puppet scripts? |
| prayer and the Holy Spirit |
