Day 5

What a great day to end our week. We were privileged to help a family in the north-east side of Detroit. They have been in their home for about a year & we helped them paint the rooms inside. They were hoping we could get the upstairs double-coated, but we finished that and were able to do almost all of the downstairs too!!

The homeowners were Erika & Ed, and they had 3 children, Makaila, Aishantay, & Maurice. Ages 12, 10 & 8. Naturally, our kids bonded with them quickly & everyone ended up pitching in to help! They even had time to throw the football around some.

All in all, it was a great week. Motown Mission gave enough to experience the many different ways we can help. And this city needs help. You could multiply everything we did this week by thousands, and I feel it wouldn't be enough.
