Hootie - Hi Fluffy!

Fluffy - Hi Hootie!

Together - Hi Boys & Girls!

Hootie - Are you ready to learn today's scripture memory verse?

Fluffy - It's found in the book of John chapter 14 verse 14.

Hootie - If ye shall ask anything in My name, I will do it.

Fluffy - That's right!

Hottie - Hmm, does this mean if I was a train robber, I could ask Jesus to help me and he would?

Fluffy - Of course not! Jesus was alking to His disciples. His disciples loved Him. He would not answere any ones prayer that didn't love him.

Hootie - I guess I wouldn't be a train robber if I loved Jesus?

Fluffy - Right!

Hootie - So, if I love Jesus and do what he says he will answere my prayers.

Fluffy - That's right. If you have a nead or a big problem or maybe decision to make, ask Jesus to help you. If you do, He said he would do it.

Hootie - WOW! That's Good News!

Fluffy - It sure is!

Hootie - Let all repeat the verse together.

Together - If ye shall ask anything in My name, I will do it. John 14:14

Hootie - Hey boys and girls, I think you can do better than that!

Fluffy - Let's all say it agian!

Together - If ye shall ask anything in My name, I will do it.

Hootie - That's better, but I think you can do better than that!

Fluffy - Now Let's all say it together one more time, everybody now..

Together - If ye shall ask anything in My name, I will do it.

Hootie - That's real good!

Fluffy - We must go now so till nexted time.

Hootie - Hey Buzz what happen'n!

Buzz - Shh! I'm taken inventory.

Hootie - Inventory! What's that?

Buzz - I'm counting all my possessions.

Hootie - Why are you doing that?

Buzz - What is this Twenty questions!!?

Hootie - No need to get up set!

Buzz - The reason I'm taken and inventory is to see how much I'm worth. You see hootie all my toys are in perfect, 100%, grade A condition. Hey there's another Scarey Hairy Marry. I take care of them, I never let any one else play with them.

Hootie - Tell me about it. I wanted to play with your Slim-a-saurus the other day and you wouldn't share.

Buzz - Ya, well your hands could have been dirty or you might have droped it and broke it!

Fluffy - Hi Hootie, Hi Buzz...

Buzz - 6,7,8,9 Sherman Hermans ...

Fluffy - What's buzz doing Hootie?

Hootie - Oh he taken inventory.

Buzz - Ya! I'm going to be worth a bundle.

Fluffy - Well what will that prove?

Buzz - I can show the list to all my freinds and they will see I'm rich. And then maybe I'll be popular.

Fluffy - Buzzzzz! Your friends don't like you because of what you have. But because of who you are.

Hootie - What freinds?

Fluffy - Hootie!

Buzz - You see!

Hootie - Buzz if you would get your mind off of your possessions and on your freinds then may you would have more friends.

Fluffy - And when we are thinking about our possessions all the time. we are not acting like Jesus wants us to act. Jesus said in Matthew 6:21 "For were your treasure is, there will your heart be also". We need to be more conserned with the things of God than of the thing of this world. Where are your treasures Buzz?

Buzz - I guess in thing of the world. But how do I ley up treares in Heaven?

Hootie - Well sharing would Help.

Fluffy - And Reading your Bible, going to Church, be a good Christian and praying.

Hootie - Ok, but that sharing stuff is going to be hard.

Hootie - I can help you there. Let me play with your Heavy duty Hank.

Fluffy - Pray and ask God to Help you and He will do it.

Buzz - Maybe I need to pray some more. Dear God in heaven, help me to lay up treasures in Heaven and not of this world.

Hootie - Help him to share too.

Buzz - Oh yes, P. S. Help me to learn to share. Amen

Hootie - Amen

Fluffy - Do you feel better Buzz?

Buzz - I sure do!

Hootie - Then can I play with your Heavy Duty Hank?

Buzz - Sure Here.

Hootie - But this one is broken.

Buzz - Let's take one ste at a time.

Hootie - Why did you do it Buzz?

Buzz - I was afraid, I didn't know what to say, I sorry Hootie. I went back and told Mrs. Pops the truth afterwards. I even worked out a deal to pay for the window. She's going to let me work for it.

PVC Puppet Stage

This stage design will allow you to quickly set up for a performance. Once you construct the conectors you can change wideth, depth and height to acomidate your particular situation. Simplely change the length of your cross members.

 

You will need to make two of each of the following connectors A , B and C.

CONNECTOR A - Glue and insert only 2 of the 2" to 1.5" reducers in to the 2" tee. In the remaining tube glue and insert a 2" length of 2" pvc pipe. On the protruding portion of this glue and insert a 90 el. (A 90ste el can be use to eliminate the 2" piece of pvc) * Make sure that the 90 el is perpendicular to the tee and not parralle. * Glue and insert a 2" to 1.5" reducer into the other end of the 90 el. Glue and insert the 1.5" X 12" length of pvc in to the reducers.

CONNECTOR B - Glue and insert the 2" to 1.5" reducers in to the 2" tee. Glue and insert the 1.5" X 12" length of pvc in to the reducers.

 

CONNECTOR C - Glue and insert the 2" to 1.5" reducers in to the 2" 90 el. Glue and insert the 1.5" X 12" length of pvc in to the reducers.

Cut your lengths of 2" pvc as follows.

Assemble the stage as in diagrams below. Your base plate is simply a base with a 1.5" veticle support. Your base plate needs to be heavy. Steel works well, 3/4" plywood with sand bags also works. Once we used mic stands when we forgot to bring our base plates.

PARTS LIST:

4 - 2" 90 pvc els

4 - 2" pvc tees

16 - 2"-1.5" pvc reducers

4 - 10' sections of 2" pvc

2 - 10' sections of 1.5" pvc

4 - Base Plates of your choice

Small Portable Folding Puppet Stage

 

Below are the instructions for a light weight folding stage suitable for one or two puppeteers. Purchase a 4X8 sheet of paneling. It can be imitation brick, wood, marble or what ever you like. If you want to paint the stage, I suggest purchasing luan. It’s light weight, sturdy and inexpensive. You will also need 5 - 8’ long 1X2s. these will be used to strengthen the vertical and horizontal panels. Purchase a 12’ long 1X4 for the cross member stabilizer. You will also need 6 - hinges.

Cut the Panels according to the following diagram.

Line the 4 - 2’X4’ panels with the 1X2s. See diagram at left.

Mount the hinges as shown in the diagram at right. Mount the center two hinges opposite the outside four. This will allow you to fold the stage into a 2X4 foot dimension for easy transportation.

Cut the 2"X4"X12'in to 3 eqaul lenghts. (this should be about 4') Construct the cross member stabilizer as shown below. The center member should be a scrap piece of 1/4' plywood along with le leftover 2'X 2'. This will create a slot allowing it to fit over the center portion of the stage to keep it straight. You may wish to tie sandbags to the real of the stage if you fear it tipping forward.

IF you have any questions feel free to contact us.
