Bob and Shirley Friedl

Bob and Shirley Friedl both accepted Jesus as their Savior when they were children. As adults they desired to teach children the love of Jesus. So Bob left the commercial art field in Chicago and moved his family to Michigan in 1972 to become a part of a children’s ministry. For eight years they trained under the leadership of RBM ministries before starting their own unique ministry of chalk artistry and puppetry called God's Helping Hands. What started as a ministry to children has now expanded to reach children of all ages. With Bob’s artistic ability and Shirley’s storytelling they make a good team. Bob and Shirley present the Gospel at churches, Schools, nursing homes and other ministries.
