The 10 a.m. worship service at First Christian Church July 12 will be led by youth in the Epiphanies Clown Ministry.

For more than five years, youth at Erlanger Christian Church in northern Kentucky have enjoyed performing as clowns. This summer the Epiphanies are embarking on their second clown ministry mission trip.

Fundraising for their mission trip included fruit/pecan sales, a rummage sale, wedding custodial work, church dinners and other projects. Each of the youth have developed their own character and worked on a variety of skits.
