Thanksgiving Lockdown: Printable Bible Escape Room for Teens

The table is set, the turkey is resting, and the dining room is on lockdown. Teens race the clock through four challenging puzzles and one final meta lock, all pointing to one question: will you be the one who comes back to say thank you?

Built around the ten lepers in Luke 17 and Psalm 100:4, this printable escape room gives youth groups and families a fun, faith-filled challenge with real Bible digging along the way.
