Just wanted to let you know that we finally made it back to Macha. We ended up flying back, but we were delayed a couple of times due to the weather. It eventually cleared up just enough for us to take off and land safely. We left our car in Lusaka (the capitol city) for some repairs and new tires. Gil will be returning to Lusaka tomorrow (with Ben Sakala and his truck) to bring back some of the items that we purchased at the estate sale. I can't wait to get everything set up in our new home. We will post pictures when we get things organized.
The rains never seem to stop. It has been so dry in Botswana for the past couple of years, we are not used to this much rain...but they have needed it. This picture is of one of the roads here in Macha....talk about an off-road bike adventure! Not all the roads are flooded, this one just happens to have an overflowing creek run past it.
Welcome To SoMacha.com!
They moved to Macha to start MICS (Macha Innovative Christian School). There was a desperate need for a quality elementary school for the local children and the many orphans in Macha. It has been 3 years now, and they have more than 60 students. God has done many amazing things in Macha. We are excited to see what will happen next!
This website will allow Gil and Ronda to keep everyone informed and up to date on all the events in Macha.
Please check back often and keep them in your prayers.
