How It Works

There aren’t really any rules

There aren’t really any rules. This is simply the format our group uses.

  1. Share

    Someone tells the group something about themselves, their week, or their life. Sharing is always optional.

  2. Choose

    That person chooses a song. The story and the song don’t have to be connected — any song they’d like to hear is the right one.

  3. Sing

    Everyone joins in however they’re comfortable — singing, humming, listening, or simply enjoying being there.

  4. Pass

    That person chooses who goes next.

That’s what works for us. Change it however you’d like to make it work for your group.
