I just wanted to let everyone know that Gil and Ronda (dad and mom) made it safely back to Macha. Their trip to Botswana went very well and all of the border crossings went smoothly. It also looks like they are making progress on the paper work for their residency visas...please keep praying.
It appears that there are some problems with the internet in Macha at this time. Gil (dad) has just let us know that they are able to check their email occasionally, but not at thier home. It is also known that there have been problems with power outages in Macha too...so the two issues together make it difficult to communicate with the outside world.
Please continue to pray for them. Living in a remote African village can be tough enough...Living in the dark, no running water, and no limited communication would make it that much harder!
They will be flying to Sue and Joel's (and Kaleb and Ethan's) house in Lusaka this coming Monday, so we should be able to get full updates at that time.
A special "Thanks" to Sue, for helping to keep us updated!
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.
