It gets the women moving. Before the women arrive, prepare the balloons. Each balloon needs to have a scripture promise that is written on a slip of paper inserted inside of it before it&#8217;s inflated. Make each promise different because the women will share them at the end. Tie a string or ribbon about two feet long to each balloon. One balloon is tied to each player&#8217;s ankle. The players try to pop one another&#8217;s balloons without letting their own get popped. When a balloon is popped, the woman picks up her written promise and sits down. The last woman without a popped balloon is the winner. Share the promises with the group. This activity symbolizes the many times in life that &#8220;balloons&#8221; are popped, but God&#8217;s promises are always there.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"main-ad\"><ins id=\"ggads\" class=\"adsbygoogle\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3235755782694080\" data-ad-slot=\"9304893949\" data-adsbygoogle-status=\"done\"><ins id=\"aswift_1_expand\"><ins id=\"aswift_1_anchor\">\u00a0<\/ins><\/ins><\/ins><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Shoe Game Everyone takes off a shoe and piles it in the middle of the circle, room, etc. Then everyone takes a shoe Each person uses the shoe they chose to make inferences about the owner The owner of the shoe either confirms or denies example: (participant picks up a black stiletto with a&#8230; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sdbwomen.org\/?page_id=743\" class=\"read-more\">Read More &rsaquo;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-743","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sdbwomen.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/743","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sdbwomen.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sdbwomen.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sdbwomen.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sdbwomen.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=743"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/www.sdbwomen.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/743\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":752,"href":"https:\/\/www.sdbwomen.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/743\/revisions\/752"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sdbwomen.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=743"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
