The Redeemer Puppet Ministry is a program that uses fun and creative programs to teach children about the Bible, biblical stories, and Christian values. A two-level stage is located on the second floor of the Sunday School Wing and a portable stage is available for puppet shows that take place in other areas.

​

Puppet shows have been used to present biblical lessons to combined Sunday school classes and to lead sing-alongs of Sunday school songs. Puppets and puppeteers have also made presentations in other churches, at youth gatherings, and in retirement communities. Most recently, the puppets presented the sermon during one of the Christmas Eve services.

​

The Redeemer Puppet Ministry program was established in 2003 as a memorial for Rev. and Mrs. H. R. Jones who spent their lives ministering to young people.
