Hi Gals!
Great first get together last night! I'm really excited about this group! Okay, here are this week's questions for chapter 1:
What is the king's name?
How long has he been king?
What is the queen's name?
What's the name of their hometown? (hint citadel of ____)
How long was this party the king had? (hint verse 4)
Describe the palace where the parties were.
What did the king ask the queen to do?
How do you think that made the queen feel?
What was the queen's response?
What was the king's response to the queen's refusal?
Looks like a lot of questions but take a stab at it and let me know what you think! Press on! It will be worth it!
God Bless!
