I love to play variations of bingo at women’s ministry events.

Everyone knows the basic rules for bingo, so little explanation is required.

The I LOVE bingo game is revealing, fun, and interactive.

There are so many things the women in your group love.

• Board games.
• Office supplies.
• Storms.
• Flea markets.

The I LOVE bingo game will help your women uncover what things the women in attendance at your event love.

Though perfect for your Valentine’s Fellowship, this game can be used any time of year.

This resource includes 3 different bingo cards. You will need to choose ONE to use with your group.

1. General things women love including: snow, coffee,flea markets/yard sales. Great for all groups.
2. A mix of general and faith-related things including: memorizing scripture, attending church services, singing hymns. Great for groups with a mix of new and seasoned believers.
3. Only faith-related things. Best for a group of mature believers or leaders.*

*You’d never want an unbeliever or new believer to feel less than because they don’t love or take part in many of the things on the card.

I LOVE Bingo Game

Group size:  15 or more

Time needed:   10 minutes (1 row); 20 minutes (whole card) see notes below

Supplies need:

One copy of the bingo card for each person
One pen per person
Small prize for winner

Instructions:

1. Distribute cards and pens to everyone in attendance.
2. Say: We all have things we LOVE. Today/Tonight we’re uncover some of the things the other women in this room love. We’re going to play a game of bingo with a twist! Your task for the next several minutes is to search the room for women who LOVE the items and activities listed on your bingo card. When you find a match, ask them to put their signature in that box. Search carefully though, as you can only have each woman sign ONE box.  And search quickly as the first one to fill the entire card wins a prize. Let us know your card is full by shouting “I LOVE it!”  Grab your pens and you may start NOW!
3. Optional wrap-up – Read through the items and activities listed on each square and have the women stand if it describes them.

 Notes:

If your group is smaller (40 – 20 women) have them collect 2 signatures per person.
For a shorter game (and less mingling) have them just fill one straight row – down, across, or diagonal.
