She turned a delivery mistake into a way to connect with neighbors

EVERYDAY GREATNESS Kristin Schell

WHO SHE IS Kristin Schell is the founder of The Turquoise Table, a movement of ordinary people who want to create community right in their own front yards. Ten years ago, she and her husband and their four children moved to a new home in Austin, Texas. Kristin knew God had given her the gift of hospitality, and she tried to connect with her new neighbors by hosting Bible studies and playgroups. But those activities required planning ahead and coordinating schedules, not to mention cooking and cleaning.

One day, Kristin needed backyard furniture for a party and bought a few picnic tables from Lowe's. The delivery driver set one table down in her front yard by mistake, and Kristin couldn't get the image out of her head. "After the party, I painted the table turquoise my favorite color-and put it in the front yard, just a few feet from the sidewalk," she says.
