We walked into the house and boy were were we surprised! Ms. Rush had basically finished all of the painting (including a 2nd coat!) She's crazy! We then had to think fast and come up with a new list of things to do. This list included cleaning and refilling their pool, doing a little more painting, and cleaning out the garage. For the rest of the day, we played with the kids, ate some lunch...
and Martha enjoyed a nap on the concrete kitchen floor.
We then went to the local phantasmagorical bowling lane where we played for 2 hours. The bowling was wedgielicious! Some boys cried - Andy, a few fell, and others jumped for joy from this magical bowling experience.

Way to go Ms. Rush! Way to go Epiphany Youth Mission Team!
Martha -- did you have concrete marks on your face when you woke up?
We are continuing to follow along and to be amazed :)
Blessings,

Hey guys! Looks like you all had a blast bowling. I hope Josh wasn't too grumpy while he was there... he is *super* competitive and gets moody when he doesn't do well (.... that's why I always let him win *shhhh*).
One last day of work, then you're on to New Orleans for some relaxation! I bet you all can't wait to sleep in real beds.
Enjoy your last bit of time in Mississippi.
It's great to see that you still have so much energy and enthusiasm - and silliness Mattie and Martha. It seems to me that this trip has done as much for you guys as it has for the Rush family. The boys' smiles have only gotten bigger as the week has gone on. You all should be very proud.
Take good care
Pat, Gina, Casey, and Megan

Hi Everybody,
I looked through all the pictures trying to find one of Nate and Josh's "klondike dance." I was very disappointed not to catch a shot of that!
Keep up the good work. You have represented Epiphany Youth well.
See You soon, Amy

I'm digging the goggles Josh!! I guess Martha can sleep just about anywhere. It sounds like the Rush family were very grateful, you all made a big difference in a family's lives, I love logging on to the pictures every day, I feel connected in a very small way, keep it up and have safe travels homel
Love to all the K'S
You made us laugh out loud, Mattie and Martha!
You all have done a great job of bringing sunshine into the lives of the Rush family, and into the lives of your Epiphany family and friends. Way to let your light shine!
Enjoy your last few days. We look forward to hearing all your stories.
love from the Pinches
