We believe mime can inspire and motivate students to make pivotal life choices that positively affect the development of their personal character. Invite EPPIC to come and do a character presentation for your next school assembly. It will definitely spark the imagination and encourage each person present.

What Does EPPIC Do?
EPPIC Ministries International is based in Minneapolis. MN. Our mission is to creatively share the Gospel message through the performing art of pantomime.
To accomplish our mission and ministry we develop fully functional mime ministry crews to serve in other states within the United States and in other countries around the world. A fully functional mime ministry crew of 6-10 mime crew members initially learns 15-20 of EPPIC’s 60+ original mime sketches and is trained, outfitted and equipped to present the Gospel, Bible content and character education programs through 15, 30 and 45 minute presentations.
Currently, EPPIC has mime ministry crews in Minnesota, Guatemala, and Honduras. We believe in multiplying EPPIC’s impact through training and the development of other mime ministry crews across the country and around the world.
Why Mime?
Utilizing motion from the top of your head to the tips of your toes, mime uses universal principles of communication to reach across language and cultural barriers to present a living story. With your imagination engaged, emotions are evoked and tears often flow as God’s Spirit draws you into His story.
An EPPIC presentation does not rely on the spoken word to communicate. EPPIC is a visual experience that stimulates the imagination and often evokes emotional responses that emanate from an individuals life experiences.
Story telling without words is a powerful tool in any culture because it does not rely on language. Mime is its own language that can be understood in any culture.
“You have to see it, to believe it” is a common phrase that is so true with EPPIC. EPPIC stands out in more ways than one, but the way we visually communicate and what we communicate is what people remember.
