Christian Workshop- Young People Service

Last time, during our young people service, I’m the one who handle the work shop and with God’s glory and guidance it really works so well. We are blessed with that workshop we did.
Here’s what we did (together with one of my church mate):

I. Banana Lesson (Game)

Break the group up into groups (2 groups) and give each group a banana and tell them to cut it up. Then I give them tape, tacks and glue and ask them to put it back together again. After attempting this impossible task, we stop to discuss how hard it is to redo errors that we make. Sometimes they cannot be redone... so it is wise to think carefully about the consequences of things we say or do before taking action"

I got this information from one of the Christian blog- Tea Time. So I made it as a workshop or activity.

I. Reflection Activity (Same group)
