Planning a Christmas Party for the church office staff

Planning a Christmas Party
for the church staff

2. When it's Christmas
time, every business wants to
show their Christmas spirit by
having an office party.
Sometimes as busy ministry
staff we forget to have fun
together in the church office.
Why not also have an office
party for the church staff?

3. The question is, what are you going to do?
No one is going to want to play pin the tail
on the donkey. That's lame. A good
Christmas party needs good food and
some Christmas games to play while you're
mingling together as a church staff.
What kinds of Christmas games
are good for an office Christmas
party though? You could play gift
giving games or have different
contests. There are also plenty of
fun things to do together like
decorating an office Christmas tree.

4. Door Prizes
First, there is always the solid "door prize
give away", where you give away prizes for
those names that get pulled out of a hat.
Have a few extra gifts for those that forget to
bring one. This ensures that no one goes
home without something if they want a gift.
While this isn't a exactly game, people
love hearing their own name being
called and they also love feeling like
they've won something cool.

5. Gingerbread House
Another great idea for a church office party is to
have a gingerbread house building contest.
Gingerbread house kits are cheap and easy to
get. You get a couple of kits and divide your staff
into two groups. Then you have a contest to see
who can build the best gingerbread house the
fastest within a three or four minutes.
Use a timer so that you‘ll know when to quit.
Whoever has the best or most complete
gingerbread house in the specified time frame
gets a prize.
You can also do this with mini Christmas
trees and other "do it yourself" small
projects, such as decorating cookies or
stringing popcorn and cranberries.

6. Gift Exchange
Another good Christmas party game is a gift
exchange. Each person has a small gift (provided by
you, and it doesn't have to be expensive) under the
tree so that there is something for everyone. Then
when your name is called, the person picks a gift and
opens it. Once it's opened, they can either keep the
gift or give it to the next person. The next person
picks out a gift for the first person and the first person
HAS to keep it, even if it‘s inappropriate for their
gender or size. This continues until all the names have
been pulled out of the hat.
It is interesting because if the first gift isn't
kept it can often continue on until all the men
have pink slippers and all the ladies in the
office have packages of men's underwear. Did
I say this was a church office party?

7. Having a church office party can be a
disaster when you don't have any good
party games to play or entertainment.
With the games that are described
above, you can have a lot of fun with just
a few simple items and some willing party
goers. If this doesn't work for your
office, you can find more games online
at Creative Christmas Ideas or convert
other holiday themed party games into
Christmas party games for adults.
Blessed Holidays and good luck
entertaining your church staff!
