Leader: Purchase 4 3/4 x 2 3/8 shipping tags at any office supply store that have a string attached so that they look like a toe tag that a mortician may place on a body at the morgue.

Holding up a tag, ask your group what they think this tag is. Explain it is a toe tag and that each of us will die one day.
Say: "If you had five minutes left to live what would your last words be and to whom? Take five minutes and write on this toe tag."

Leader: Ask who would like to share their responses.
