Christian Icebreaker Bingo
A Christian icebreaker bingo for church small groups, Bible study, youth group and church camp. The squares mix faith-friendly questions with everyday fun, and a newcomer can fill plenty of them, so nobody feels left out.
How to play Christian Icebreaker Bingo
- Pick a set of squares in the toolbar: Everyone, Work & Meetings, Classroom, Kids, Church & Youth Group or Virtual Meeting, or write your own squares.
- Press Print cards to print a different card for every player (one card per page), or have everyone open this page on their own phone.
- Players mingle and ask each other questions. When someone matches a square (“Find someone who… has been on a boat”), write that person’s name in it.
- Each person can sign only one square on your card, so you have to talk to lots of people. For a group of fewer than about 10, allow each name twice.
- The first player to fill a full line across, down or corner to corner shouts “Bingo!” and introduces the people in their line.
Controls
- Tap or click a square to write a name in it
- Tap a filled square to change or clear the name
Tips
- Open with a short prayer, play for ten minutes, then share one story from the card.
- At camp, give each cabin a stack of printed cards on the first evening.
- Pair with the Christian icebreaker questions page for a sit-down second round.

FAQ
Is this bingo game okay for people who are new to church?
Yes. Many squares are about everyday life, and the faith squares are easy and friendly, such as “has been to a church camp” or “has a favorite hymn”. Nobody is asked about how strong their faith is.
Is there gambling involved?
No. This is a get-to-know-you game with names in the squares. There is no money, betting or prizes.
Can I make my own icebreaker bingo card?
Yes. Choose Your own squares (or press Edit squares), type one square per line and print. If you write fewer than 24 squares, the rest are filled from a ready-made set.
Can I print icebreaker bingo cards as a PDF?
Yes. Press Print cards, choose how many cards, then pick Save as PDF as the printer. Each card is shuffled, so no two players have the same layout.
How long does icebreaker bingo take?
Plan 10 to 15 minutes for a 5×5 card in a room of 20 to 40 people. Use a 4×4 card or stop at the first bingo for a quicker round.
