Ray Cooper and his amazing ventriloquist skills were a highlight of our camp. Ray was the speaker at Rally Arura and he related so well to all age groups. There were 100 campers ranging in age from 8-17. The younger ones were totally enthralled and the older ones valued the fun times along with the Bible message. They showed respectful and intent attention to all he said.
He is up-to-date with graphics and on children's wavelength.
Ray has a very friendly and approachable personality that helps him relate to kids very well.
We would highly recommend Ray to you as a camp speaker or to your church for a family service.

As a church we regularly engage with Ray to share with our children and families. Ray is an extremely gifted communicator, with a unique ability of being able to engage both children and adults with the same content (providing plenty of laughs in the process!). He cleverly and creatively communicates biblical truth to a wide variety of listeners within the same audience. Our kids just love it when they know Ray is coming! We have used Ray for family services, and sharing with our kids at Church Camp. He is a lovely guy, with a real willingness to serve. We enjoy working alongside him and value his ministry.

Ray delivered a presentation to our "Messy Church”, a once-a-month event for all ages. With the use of tricks, sound-effects, humour, puppets, ventriloquism and story-telling Ray had everyone’s attention for a full 30 minutes. Intertwined with the entertainment was memorable teaching about kindness, about friendship, and about God’s forgiveness. We have never seen everyone so absorbed - ever! 
Ray has crafted his presentation with care and skill. We look forward to his next visit!

ACTIVATE PROGRAMME in secular schools.
Ray is currently running the Activate programme here at Manakau School for our senior class, year 4,5 and 6.
It is a programme that the children await eagerly for each week. The children are fully engaged with the programme content and as a staff we would endorse the positive messages that the programme delivers. Ray has an extremely positive relationship with the children and keeps them fully engaged each time he visits.
