As clowns, we spend a lot of time putting on our make-up and clothes to entertain those who come to see us perform. When we dress up as clowns we change our looks, personality and even the way we act. 

There was a change that was more important than our changing into clowns.  That change was when Jesus Christ came into our lives.  He changed more than just our outside, He changed our hearts.  How about you? Have you had a change in your heart?  You can! 

The Bible says in 1 John 5:13, “These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that you have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.”  Would you like to know Jesus as your personal savior? Read the following verses and pray the prayer and He can change your life!

1. “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:23)
Everyone is a sinner – there are no exceptions.

2. “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23)
Death means separation forever from God.  Eternal life comes from trusing Jesus Christ.

3. “But God commended His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8)
God loved us as sinners so much that He gave His son to die for our sins.

4. “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” (Romans 10:9)
To be born again, you must believe that Jesus died for your sins and declare that you accept Him as Lord of your life.

This is God’s promise to you that if you accept Jesus as Lord, He will accept you.

Dear God, I know I have sinned by breaking your laws and I ask for your forgiveness. I believe that Jesus died for my sins. I want to be born again and receive new life in Him.  I will follow Jesus as my Lord and obey Him in all that I do. In Jesus’ name I pray.  Amen.

Dear Friends,

We first want to thank our Lord and Savior for all that He does.  We stand amazed at how He uses us in spite of our weaknesses.  We also thank Him for using a couple of clowns for His glory.

Dear Supporters,

We have just arrived home from Mexico and are glad to tell you that God is good!  We traveled to eight different villages, two churches, and saw nine people come to know Jesus as their personal Savior.  We also gave out over 1,500 tracts while visiting different villages and towns.

We had the opportunity to work with Job Martinez, a 76 year old Mexican man, who is a layman in a local church.  He now serves ten ministries that he started after accepting Jesus as his personal Savior.  He truly shows the love of God in his work with his people.

Even with the threat of death, he still continues to visit these villages trusting that God will take care of him. We also had the chance to visit his home church and fellowship with his pastor and church members.  What a blessing to spend some time with him.

We are excited to see what God has in store for us as we continue in the work we started on our last visit.  We can’t wait to share with you the great things He allows us to be a part of.

Dear Friends,

We have returned from our two week trip to the Philippines. We had a safe and fruitful trip. My, how God blessed. We saw over 700 people come to Christ. Below is a letter from one of the three pastors we worked with while in the Philippines.

Dear Brother Jimmie and Sister Faye,

A blessed day to you.  It was a wonderful blessing and experience when you visited our work here in Dasmarinas, Cavite.  We were all very excited and waiting for the day to come.  It was our first time to have a visitor like you who is doing missionary work as clowns for Christ.

Indeed, God has many ways to reach each people, especially the children. It’s been the ministry of the church at first to teach and bring children for Christ. We have started a few extension classes on our nearby barangay.  Now, we have ten areas in which lots of children are coming to attend every Saturday in the afternoon. Our love for the children has never changed. 

I myself, and the church were overwhelmed that day.  We had almost 500 children that came.  How God provided for our needs to feed them afterwards, and the many things you brought them that added to their joy, (especially teaching them about Christ and the way of Salvation, through the Gospel necklace).  The children enjoyed very much, the lollipops and your sweet smiles for them. 

We pray that we can have you again next year.  My wife already looked on your website.  She was very glad to view it (especially your ministry for the school, the music department, your new church building, and the picture of your pastor).

In Christ,
