Spiritual development objectives:

• Recognising one’s place within a group,
• Recognising one’s place in relation to other group members

Activity guidelines

A “game master” is selected and all participants walk around the playing area.

Each person will choose one person to protect and one person to fear, without saying anything to the others. Whilst walking, each person will get closer to the person they wish to protect and walk away from the one they fear. This will be done with great concentration, in honesty and without a word. There will obviously be many possibilities.

The important thing is that all members of the group carefully listen to each other.

You cannot change the chosen persons at a later stage.

The “game master” has to observe everyone and find out who is feared and who is protected by who.

After the first 5 minutes, the game master shares his thoughts and finds out whether he was right or wrong. The group starts again from the beginning with a new game master.
