The Blyth Christian Puppeteers
have just completed their first
executive year in this unique
ministry, and are looking forward
to an even busier year in 1991. The
group presented close to 40 pro
grams in 1990, accepting invita
tions from Lions clubs, a Kinsmen
club, a Boy Scout Club and several
church organizations including
D.V.B.S., Sunday Schools, Child
ren’s camps, and South Huron
Youth for Christ. Most of the
engagements were within an 80-
mile radius of home, however in
early December the puppeteers
travelled in their big blue bus to
Kingston to share the message of
hope in Christ as portrayed by their
various skits to two enthusiastic
groups of inmates at the Quinte
Detention Centre as well as take
part in the Sunday School and
worship hour at Camden Commun
ity Church near Napanee.
The balance of December was
very busy with many engagements
for their Christmas program, in
cluding the Christmas program for
the Church of God in Blyth on Dec.
16 which was very well attended.
The Blyth Christian Puppeteer
Ministry is sponsored by Blyth
Church of God, but it had its origin
in the minds of Leslie and Jackie
Cook, who got it “on the road”
with the help of our very talented
young people of the community:
Christina Black, Michael de Jong,
BRUCE S. SWITZER
A.R.C.T. s.d.
