Kind of....So today we had a kind of cool opportunity working with the Salvos (thats Australian for the Salvation Army). We really discovered the generous heart of Australians. Instead of going to our usual streets for Street Teams. Hillsong joined the Salvos for their Red Shield Appeal. Basically, collecting $$ donations. Now, you may think how uncomfortable knocking on peoples doors asking for money, but that was the cool part. Aussies are so into doing for others. We would get to the doors and as soon as the people saw our Salvation Army bags, they would say "ok be back in a sec", or "oh we have been expecting you", or "sure, mate"--and come back with cash. Anyhow, it was just kind of neat to see all different types of people coming together for a common cause, especially when it is to help other people.
