Macha

Well it certainly is good to chat with you all again. Our winter continues to be a little strange, we keep swinging between crazy warm weather and our typical cold all within a week. Oh well it keeps things interesting that's for sure.
We are just about through birthday season, with Gary being the last one coming up till Tammy's in October. We now have a 17, 15 and 13 year old in the house, wow time sure flies when you are having fun. And we truly are having fun, I can't think of a more enjoyable time in our lives then right now. Sometimes things get pretty nutty with all the travelling and I would be lying if I didn't say there was some friction on the road, but hey what would a trip be without asking, "Are we closer to home or there?"
One of the places that we maybe possibily based at is Macha. Macha is located in the south central part of the western part of Zambia. The main work here would be supporting setting up a communications network called Linknet. Reliable, efficient, secure communications is becoming more crucial to missions and related agencies as they work in remote areas of the world. The ability to respond to requests in hours instead of days or weeks can be the difference in saving a life physically or spiritually.
I Know it looks like it's Mukinge, but it's not.

Thanks again to all of you that are praying for and supporting us. We are reminded daily that this is something that we can't do on our own. The Lord keeps moving people to help out and your care humbles us. We are looking for a group of 31 people that would commit to praying for us once a month. If this is something that you would be interested in joining let us know. We'll be posting more details in the future. Presently we are at 35% of our financial needs thank you for your help.
