Once a question is read, each sister is given a turn to answer it while everyone else listens. No one should give a reaction whatsoever. Instead, sisters will write notes to each sister and place the note within the intended sister's shoe.
It gets pretty emotional, and you learn so much about people when you thought you knew them so well. And you have the notes forever. The alum who brought it to us said she did it on a retreat with a group of girls she never met before. They walked out feeling like they had known each other for years.
I want to use this activity in our retreat this spring. Does anyone have any suggestions for questions we could use? Some we've come up with:
-Pick a place to represent someone in this room.
-If you could give a gift to someone in this room, who would it be to, what would it be and why?
-what's something that you struggle with everyday?
Suggestions?
