A Different Type of Worship Service

Actually it wasn't really a worship service at all, it was respectful tribute service. For what you ask? It was for all the clowns in the world, to pay their respects to the father of all clowning. Joseph Grimaldi lived in the 18th and 19th century and all those scary clowns at circuses owe him their profession. This man is credited for inventing the face paint and making all the clowning ways.

Sure clowns are scary and a little innocent, but what did they think of this guy way back when? Light the torches and grab the pitchforks! Maybe being a clown isn't all that great. First of all, they're meant for children, but are one of the scariest things imaginable. What kid would want to go see a full grown man that wears a colorful and mismatching suit, crazy hair, and make-up? I know I didn't when I was a kid. I saw the movie "It" and I know what clowns really are.
