Topic:

Puppets: John, Gina
Target Audience: All ages
(Enter: puppets slide over curtain upside down,
panting, gasping- talking as they enter)
John: Boy, its hot today.
Gina: You bet John
John: I can’t wait to go home! My air
conditioner is finally fixed. It’s been broken for a whole month and I didn’t
know how much I missed it until this year. This is the hottest it’s been in
almost 20 years!
Gina: Wow, I’m glad you guys got it fixed so now
you don’t have to worry about it can you can enjoy it.
John: Me too . . . hey Gina, I was thinking . .
. what about all the other people that don’t have air conditioning?
Gina: What do you mean?
John: Like people who don’t have homes to have
air conditioning systems. I feel really sorry for them and I want to know how I
can help.
Gina: Well John, they could all come live at
your house because you have a new one.
John: Gina I’m being serious.
Gina: I know . . . I know . . . well . . . ummmm…I
saw them giving out box fans at the homeless shelter.
John: That’s a great idea!
Gina: No it isn’t
John: Wait . . . what do you mean, it’s not a
good idea?
Gina: Well, how can they use those fans? They
can’t plug them in if they don’t even have houses or electricity.
John: I hadn’t even thought of that . . . It’s
like when I had my birthday last year; my parents bought me a new mountain bike.
Gina: Wait a minute, how is that like people who
don’t have a place to plug their new fans in? It sounds like a pretty great
present to me!
John: But it wasn’t!
Gina: Why not?
John: Because I had a broken leg and I couldn’t
ride it for a whole month!
Gina: Wow! It sounds like your parents got you a
great gift but had bad timing because you couldn’t use it.
John: You’re right Gina.
Gina: All this reminds me of something.
John: What’s that?
Gina: God’s perfect gift.
John: Wait . . . are you telling me God gave me
a present?
Gina: He sure did! But not that you find covered
in wrapping paper or under a tree. Gods’ gift was much more important. He gave
us the perfect gift that we could use all the time!
John: What is it?
Gina: John, you should know. We learned about it
in Sunday school last week.
John: Oh! That gift!
Gina: Uh, huh. The gift God gave us was sending
His Son, Jesus Christ, to suffer, die and rise again to take away all of our
sins.
John: I remember! We also learned that if we
believe in Jesus as our Savior, we can go live in heaven with Him.
Gina: I have a great idea!
John: What is it?
Gina: Let’s bring some ice water to the shelter
and give it to the people there. We can also tell them about what Jesus did for
them.
John: That’s a great idea. Let’s go right now!
Gina: Ok. Goodbye everyone!
John: Goodbye! (both exit)
