Underground church

Play "Underground Church". Write the following names on pieces of paper, fold them up, & have each staff member take one. (In a group of 20 you can have approximately 3 Policemen, 16 Christians, 1 Angel.) Have everyone close their eyes and ask only the policemen to open their eyes to identify the other policemen. No one else knows for sure who the policemen are and the policemen try to keep their identity a secret.

The Christians must try to meet each other & have church at least 3 people together. In this time they must really praise God, intercede, recite Scriptures or pray for the real underground church. The police must try to catch them by infiltrating or catching them while having a meeting. They must be put in "jail". The Angel can warn & encourage Christians, give them information & set them free from jail. (You may want to limit the amount of times the angel sets captives free.) You can go as far as to have an "execution" for the parties that "lose".
