Here are a couple of unique ideas on how you can donate to this missions trip without stretching your budget.
OUR MISSION- To share the love of Christ while "Illustrating Spiritual Truth in a Visual Manner." In a fun and entertaining way we keep the audience engaged using tricks and illustrations of wonder. While capturing their undivided attention, we are then able to deliver a message of hope for the lost and joy for the saved.
WHY is it important for us to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ? Watch this video... God loves you. We say it sometimes as a cliche', but the truth is, God really does love you. Exactly as you are. Good and bad, you are His craftsmanship. Sharing God's love with the lost is our call. Displaying how to live for Christ is our thread - it runs throughout our show and in our lives.
We do this using illusions, illustrations, comedy and drama. Our shows bring high entertainment value - but most importantly, we present Jesus Christ in a fresh and exciting way (HE never changes, our methods adjust). I came across "The Skit Guys" and had to put this on our site. I've never met them, but they have brought me closer to God with their talents. This is our goal as well.
We don't seek to bring you just a show, but an experience with God that will change your life. This is only accomplished by the work of the Holy Spirit moving, so please be in prayer for us - that we can get out of the way and see God working His will for His people.
ENJOY THIS VIDEO!
"What is the Gospel?" Sometimes we are asked what we share during a program that presents the plan of salvation. Click here to read our answer... "Plan of Salvation"
"Our family entertainment packages are designed to produce laughter and happiness for the moment while we teach how to have joy for a lifetime!"
Watch this - it's fun!
OUR PURPOSE-To be used by God, for His purpose, and to His glory.David has a God-given talent when it comes to combining fun, mystery and excitement through the use of illusions & comedy. With the added entertaining punch of Gayle's puppet brigade (performed mainly in the style of a Ventriloquist), their delivery of expert family entertainment is hard to beat!
Allow me a moment to speak from my heart...
First, while I am a "Baptist" Minister, our shows are non-denominational. We have performed in a variety of denominational settings and seek first and foremost to support the ministry of the local church. Whether your church is Catholic, Baptist, Lutheran, Methodist, Evangelical Free, Presbyterian, Assembly of God, Seventh Day Adventist or anywhere inbetween - we will gratiously adapt our program to be sensitive to your doctrine. Many churches have asked us to use only the King James version of the bible as well. Having said this, please take a moment to review our Statement of Beliefs - to which we will NOT waiver. God's Word is truth. Period.
I bring over 20 years experience in the field of "magical" entertainment. This doesn't just mean that I've been performing for that long... it means that I have been studying the art of illusion as it pertains to wholesome, Christian family entertainment. We deliver a very professional show that will not embarrass or disappoint. My point is simple - we are here to serve God by serving you in your outreach and church family entertainment needs. "It's not about the magic, it's about the message!"
WELL OVER 30,000 people have already experienced the Christ-centered, family entertainment and evangelistic ministry of Rev David & Gayle Williamson.
We don't want you to be disappointed because your date has disappeared off our calendar!! We typically book our shows 4-6 months in advance. EVEN IF YOU ARE CONTACTING US LAST MINUTE, don't hesitate to call us right away... we may be able to fit you into our travels! Williamson Productions was recently featured in the April 2009 issue of the West Des Moines Living magazine. Click here to see a copy of the article.

Look at what others have said recently about David and Gayle Williamson:
"I would definitely recommend David and Gayle Williamson...to anyone interested in fun family entertainment. They are a very blessed couple, and it was a pleasure to not only work with them but also be entertained by them." - Amy Thorson, Ankeny Family YMCA
"I am happy to recommend...David & Gayle Williamson... They present entertaining, yet life-changing Christian messages, through illusion and puppetry, and their ministry to children and families regularly produces the evangelistic fruit of salvation." - Sue Shaw, Administrator, Iowa Baptist Conference
"We have 120 students in grades Pre-K through 12th. For one solid hour students were captivated with the magic production." - Jon Frischkorn, Administrator, Great River Christian School
"The children loved it. The looks on their faces said it all. We also got feedback from parents saying their kids talked about it a lot." - Lacy Johnson, Apple Tree Children's Center
***********************************
Among so many, here are a couple of my favorite verses as they "apply" to being a Christian Illusionist:
1. "He is your praise; He is your God, who performed for you those great and awesome wonders you saw with your own eyes."- Deuteronomy 10:21
We make it very clear that there is no such thing as real magic. God does the miracles. We just perform tricks.
2. Matthew 10:26..."So do not be afraid of them. THERE IS NOTHING CONCEALED THAT WILL NOT BE DISCLOSED, OR HIDDEN THAT WILL NOT BE MADE KNOWN."
Sleight-of-hand is one of the means for accomplishing the effects used to illustrate truths from the Word of God. To the end that this verse could apply (in jest), let me add that "we keep the secrets while we tell the truth!" Jesus taught "parables" using visual illustrations from everyday objects around him. Using this same approach, we visually share the love of God and teach biblical truths using a variety of "tricks" (illusion) and puppets, delivered with comedy and professionalism.
Many people will come to a "magic show", yet never set foot inside a church to hear a sermon preached. Through the use of visual illustrations, we seek to:
Open their eyes, so that their ears may hear, and their hearts changed, for the kingdom of God.
Boasting in the Lord only, we have witnessed over 650 first-time decisions for Christ at our shows since going full-time in February 2008. Praise God!

2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
When we first moved to Israel we experienced a thundering earthquake that measured 5.2 on the Richter scale. I was in my Hebrew class downtown, and my wife and newborn were in our Jerusalem apartment. I don't know if any of you have ever experienced an earthquake, but it can be very scary. My wife told me about her experience.
She was sitting in our bedroom with the baby in her arms, when out of nowhere came a sudden loud roaring sound, followed by a shaking of all four walls, and all the contents within banging against them for what seemed like an eternity.
So many things go through your mind when you're in the midst of a life-threatening experience like that. Rivka said that as everything was shaking, she began to fear what could happen next. But in the midst of it all, Riv looked down at Elianna in her arms. Would you believe, she was perfectly content -- happy, smiling, even drifting off to sleep as the earth shook all around her.
Each of us can take a lesson from Elianna. Even in the midst of craziness, chaos, distress, crises beyond our control, we as believers must rest, trusting that we're safe in the loving arms of the Father.
Is your world being shaken right now? Know that God is holding you today. No matter what you're facing, you can trust Him fully to cover you and protect you. Relax in His sheltering arms!
