Clowning Around with Meaning - Children's Day in Taiwan

Jeffrey Groft

“Boy am I tired, but happy!” said Abing (aka Tim) along with side kick Abong, (aka Danny) who just finished clowning around and having fun with over 200 kids from the Taichung City Special Children Center. On a bright and sunny Saturday afternoon, two clowns from the Family International Taichung City center met and had lots of fun with this special bunch of kids by performing one of their renowned clown shows. With an afternoon of magic tricks, music, songs and dancing, it’s hard to tell if our clowns or the children had the most fun!

But the best part was seeing the smiles on the children’s faces after they each received a beautiful poster, a children’s music CD, and a Grandpa Jake collection of Chinese bilingual CDs and booklets, all of which were sponsored by Activated Ministries. A big thank you for contributing to this event and for giving these children something that will put a smile of their faces long after we’re gone.
