The linen drive we tried to do in our neighborhood didn't go off all that well. Nate, Maddie and I went around with the Kohne kids passed our flyer's last week to all 85 houses in our neighborhood and went around yesterday to pick up the linens off the front porches. Only two people had left stuff out there. Nate and Maddie proceeded to go up and down the block knocking on doors, hoping that people had forgotten. No luck. I think we're going to try and make this a monthly thing for our neighborhood, and try and get even more kids involved in it. Next time, we'll try to pick items that people might have laying around.
Joe interviewed the two Maddie's, Nate and Trevor up on stage as part of his message today in church. Joe's message was around starting from where you're at and doing something... Which is what the kids did. We went out to breakfast with the Kohne's afterwards.
