SETUP AND TAKEDOWN TIME

We will need to have access to the location for the program at least 1 hour prior to anyone arriving. It will take us about 45 minutes afterward to pack and load the equipment.

WHAT CAN YOU DO TO MAKE OUR VISIT MORE EFFECTIVE

Due to the evangelistic nature of the program, much more is involved that a simple puppet program. Because of this, "THE AGAPE PUPPETS" request the following from each church:

A serious commitment from the church for community evangelism.

A commitment to the discipling of anyone who comes to Christ during the program.

A commitment to a time of prayer by the church for several weeks before the program, with special emphasis on preparing the hearts of the unsaved, both adults and children, to receive the Gospel.

Commit to advertise for these events. Use fliers, newspaper and personal contacts.

MINISTRY EXPENSES

We request that you cover all travel expenses and provide an honorarium or love offering which we will use to reach children all around the world with the Gospel.

IF FINANCES ARE A PROBLEM, CALL US ANYWAY!!!! WE WILL WORK SOMETHING OUT! OTHER SHARING OPPORTUNITIES

Other sharing opportunities are available while at your church. These should be arranged in advance.
