  What are the MIMMs?  The MIMMs are a clown ministry.  What is a clown ministry and how on earth did this come about?  Let's start with the obvious - a clown is an entertainer who provides a warped reflection of a person, trait or society.  Ministry is serving your fellow human beings, and by doing so, serving our Lord Jesus Christ.  So, clown ministry is serving others through clowning in the context of a church service, hospital, nursing home, local festivals, birthday parties, and etc. to allow others to experience the love of God.  It's humbling ourselves to lift others up.

Baptist Young Women have been led to a mission project that would best capture all of the things that Michelle Wilson held so dear.  It occurred that a clown ministry is something the BYW could use as a vehicle to witness to others in ways and places that they had never before considered.  Thus, MIMM (Ministering in Michelle's Memory) was formed.

Of course, some of us are natural clowns and others don't have a funny bone in their bodies.  We all have different talents, yet we all are here because we have the desire to help others develop a relationship with God.

If you would like to contact the MIMMs please send e-mail to our church at: ebbc@barbourville.com
