🎭 Puppet Skit: The Pure in Heart
Cast of Puppets:
- Pastor Pickles – A wise, slightly silly cucumber with a bowtie
- Sunny – A bright yellow bird who’s always cheerful but easily distracted

- Luna – A gentle lamb with a pure heart and poetic wisdom
- Narrator (optional) – Can be a live voice or puppet with a scroll
🌟 Scene 1: The Mud Pie Incident
(Curtains open. Sunny is flapping around with excitement. Grubby is making a mud pie.)
Sunny:
Grubby! What are you doing? That’s not chocolate pudding!
Grubby:
It’s my new invention—Mud Pie Supreme! It’s got dirt, worms, and a dash of regret.
Pastor Pickles (pops up):
Regret? That’s the secret ingredient in every bad decision!
Grubby:
Hey, Pastor Pickles! I’m just having fun. What’s the harm?
Pastor Pickles:
Well, Grubby, when your heart gets muddy, your choices get messy. Ever heard of Matthew 5:8?
Grubby:
Is that a recipe?
Pastor Pickles:
Nope! It’s a beatitude: “Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.”
Sunny:
Wait—see God? Like, with binoculars?
Luna (enters gracefully):
No, Sunny. With faith. A pure heart sees God’s goodness even in muddy places.
🧼 Scene 2: The Heart Wash Station
(A pretend “Heart Wash” station appears. Luna gently guides Grubby toward it.)
Luna:
Grubby, purity isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being honest, kind, and clean on the inside.
Grubby:
But I like mud! It’s squishy and fun!
Pastor Pickles:
Mud’s fine for your paws, but not for your heart. Let’s clean up with some truth soap and forgiveness bubbles!
(They pretend to wash Grubby’s heart. Bubbles fly. Grubby looks refreshed.)
Grubby:
Wow! I feel... lighter. Like I traded guilt for grace!
Sunny:
Can I try? I’ve been gossiping about the squirrels again...
💬 Scene 3: Wordplay and Wisdom
Pastor Pickles:
Let’s play a game: What’s the opposite of “pure”?
Grubby:
Impure?
Sunny:
Un-sure?
Luna:
How about “confused, cluttered, or corrupted”?
Pastor Pickles:
Exactly! A pure heart is like a clean window—it lets the light in. A cluttered heart? That’s like trying to see through peanut butter.
Grubby:
Eww! That’s sticky theology!
Sunny:
So purity is clarity?
Luna:
Yes. And kindness. And courage. And choosing what’s right even when it’s hard.
🕊️ Scene 4: The Invitation
Pastor Pickles:
Kids, grown-ups, puppets—whoever you are, God wants your heart. Not just your Sunday smile, but your everyday choices.
Grubby:
Even raccoons?
Pastor Pickles:
Especially raccoons.
Luna:
Let’s pray together. Let’s ask God to clean our hearts and help us live purely.
(All puppets bow their heads.)
🙏 Closing Prayer (spoken by Luna or Narrator)
Dear God,
Thank You for loving us even when we’re muddy. Help us to be pure in heart—honest, kind, and full of Your light. Wash away our sin, fill us with Your Spirit, and teach us to live with love. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
🎉 Optional Add-ons:
- Audience Participation: Let kids shout out “Pure!” every time a puppet makes a good choice.
- Craft Tie-In: Build a “Heart Wash Station” with soap bubbles and scripture cards.
- Memory Verse Challenge: Have kids memorize Matthew 5:8 and recite it with the puppets.
