Questions for Sept 15
Conversation Starters
Have fun picking a few of these questions so that you can get to know each other a little better! Where are you alike? Where are you different?
Show and Tell
What’s good for kindergarteners is also good for seminarians. Zoom gives us a great opportunity for a little show and tell. Everybody take two minutes to find something to share with the group. Each person takes a turn at showing their item and talking about why they picked it.
Two Truths and a Lie
You all know this game. Take turns offering three “facts” about yourself, but only two of them can be true. Of course, the more unusual the better! Your small group will guess which is the lie…and then you can share a little more about the two statements that are true.
What’s on your bucket list?
Share with the group two or three things that are on your “bucket list.” Why are those particular experiences on your list? Which seem more possible, or probable, to accomplish in your life? Which seem impossible? Why? Do you have anything that was once on your bucket list, but now you’ve done it? Share your story about that.
Those who are listening should feel free to ask questions to get to know that person better. At the end of this time, everyone share one thing they’ll remember about another person.
