Or make sentences about how Jesus makes people happy. To help you get started, the first part of the acrostic has been completed for you.

Kimberly and Kaitlyn and their mom and dad are a missionary family in Thailand. Most of the time, mom and dad work in a hospital, but today theyre helping people in a village. Mom will be Yo-Yo the clown. The girls will help make children laugh while they are waiting for the doctor. They will tell Bible stories and give out tracts (booklets) that tell about Jesus.

I guess we just clowned around all day for Jesus, said Kimberly later that day as they gathered up all their stuff and went back to their tent.
