MISSION EXPERIENCE

Escape room games are fun and challenging. They require a team of players to use puzzles and clues to escape.

Why not use a game to help students (and adults) experience what it would be like to escape from a lifeless faith and move into a faith built on calling, mission and purpose?

That’s what Escape Room Mission Experience is helping people do in churches across Texas and beyond. It’s an escape room with “Rebuild the Church” as its theme.

The experience takes no longer than 55 minutes, but most groups finish in 45-50 minutes. The goal is to discover four words that reveal hidden codes to progress players through the experience.

BIBLE STUDY

At the end of the escape experience, a facilitator leads participants through the “Blueprints for LIFE” Bible study. This takes 10-15 minutes. The study explains why the four words in the escape experience were chosen. It also can lead to a gospel presentation of the facilitator's choice. Each participant will receive one copy of the “Blueprints for LIFE” pamphlet.
