"Lift Up Your Hands in the Sanctuary and Praise the Lord" — Psalm 134:2
The Praise Puppets are a team of students from Christ Community Church who spend their Saturday mornings developing and rehearsing puppet shows to bring to audiences across Iowa.
What do you charge?
There is no charge for Praise Puppets performances. Our church provides funding for us to travel and perform. Freewill offerings are accepted but not requested.
What’s your show like?
A full Praise Puppets program is about an hour long, with skits, songs and introductions. Each season we produce at least two different programs. Write to thepraisepuppets@gmail.com for details on the current program.
When are you available?
We travel 9 months out of the year. In January and February, we develop our spring/summer programs which we perform March through September. In October, we’re developing our Christmas program which we start bringing to sites in November.
