The Puppets of God can't wait for Easter.

An orphaned puppet turned up at The Lanes congregation at Christmas two years ago, and she was christened Holly, seasonally-enough. Holly soon proved to have a surprising number of friends and relations for an abandoned orphan, including the rather nervous Chicken.

Now it takes an entire team of lively teenagers to manage a large cast of cheeky and rebellious puppets. They spend time each week developing new songs and sketches to help present Christian ideas in a fresh and interesting way.

The Puppets of God (affectionately known as POG) appear regularly at local churches, clubs and schools, fascinating younger children, while challenging older listeners to do some serious thinking.

What surprises have they in store for us this Easter?
