Rev. Dr. Walt Ratzell's ministry is at New Brooklyn United Methodist Church. He does a children's time sermon with the puppets each Sunday and then the children leave the combined service for their own children's church. As you might expect, the adults are reported to enjoy the puppets as much as the kids. Mrs. Ratzell is not a ventriloquist herself, but was willing to lend a hand for this photo and Walt tells me she is very tolerant of a house full of puppets and figures.6/26/11
