Puppets For Christ — or PFC as we like to call ourselves — is a teen youth ministry that seeks to spread God’s word through the entertainment of puppets.

PFC is an award winning puppet troupe that has received gold and silver medals in regional competitions, as well as recognition for “Outstanding Originality”,  "Exceptional Use of Props and Scenery”, and the 2001 and 2003 “Peoples Choice Award”.  We were the winners of the 2002 National Championship of the Fellowship of Christian Puppeteers.  We are a growing ministry that delights in bringing the joy of God’s message to all ages.  

Puppets For Christ has performed extensively in the Tampa Bay Area.  We have presented Christmas and Easter programs for the children of Shriner’s Hospital and Metropolitan Ministries.  We bring a special Thanksgiving to the children of migrant workers—and an after school treat to the kids of the Tampa Haitian Mission.  We assist on a regular basis the on-going exciting ministry of the Sidewalk Saturday School at North Boulevard Homes.  Our Ministry has taken us to teen youth groups in all four corners of the Tampa Bay area and our little puppets have touched the hearts of nursing home patients and the kids of children’s homes.

And of course, where would we be without Children’s Church, where we first began and continue to delight not only our own “little congregation” at Van Dyke’s Sunday School Programs and Pioneer Club, but the children’s programs of other local churches as well.

We continue to seek the support of our congregation and like-minded Christians.  Please continue to keep us in your prayer and bless us with your time, talents and gifts.
