This We Believe

Our Mission

Puppets teach in amazing ways. Since 1965, our marionettes have been telling the tales of Christmas and Easter to families across the Fox River Valley. Christian fairy tales are also part of our repertoire. Over 50,000 audience members have enjoyed the storytelling magic of the Fox Folk Marionettes!


Fox Folk Marionette & Friends, Inc. (FFM&F) is devoted to using the art of puppetry to promote Christian education. FFM&F seeks to preserve the history and expand community awareness of marionettes and other puppetry forms by performing shows, offering educational presentations and exhibits, and hosting workshops, festivals, and conferences to promote Christian puppetry and creative arts. FFM&F's work will follow the teachings of the Bible as this group seeks to assist the Christian church in going into the world and sharing the love of Jesus by all means at its disposal.

This we believe … “God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” – John 3:16


  • We believe that there is one true God. He has revealed Himself to us as one Triune God made up of three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

  • We believe that God created the world in six days using his almighty Word. This world and all creatures that inhabit it are not accidents of nature, but the creation of a powerful, wise and loving God who continues to be in control of this world.

  • The first man and woman sinned against God. Now all people are born as sinners, unworthy of heaven.

  • Out of love, God promised to send a Savior to rescue us from sin. God repeated that promise throughout the Old Testament and fulfilled that promise by sending Jesus.

  • Jesus is both fully God and fully human.

  • Jesus died for all our sins and rose from the dead. Because of his sacrifice, we are forgiven of our sins. He is the only true path to heaven.

  • We live Christian lives to thank God for graciously giving us forgiveness and eternal life.

  • The Bible was written by the hands of men, but the Holy Spirit gave those men the words to record. This means the Bible is inspired by God and without error.

  • The Holy Spirit works through the Word of God to create and strengthen faith in Jesus Christ.

  • In the future, Jesus will visibly return to earth to judge everyone — the living and the dead. All who believe in Jesus can have the confidence that they will live forever with him in heaven.
