After a long 36 hours of travel we finally made it to the beautiful village of Macha and we could not be more excited to have gotten here safely! After arriving we had some time to settle in and unpack a bit. The Tuma’s made a delicious dinner for us that we all devoured after so much travel. We are so grateful for the Tuma’s and their willingness to open their home to us while we are here. The work here they are doing is so pleasing to the Lord! From their smiling faces, to the amazing food Corey cooks for us, we are so grateful for them.
After dinner we headed back to our dorms and had a quick debrief. Although we were all exhausted, it was a special time to here everyone’s first impressions of Macha, and share our excitement we have for the coming week. Surprisingly, we ended up staying up and playing card games, and spending quality time together. We are so grateful for the time we had to laugh and had fun before beginning the clinics for Push The Rock. Once our heads hit the pillow we were out and we all slept like rocks.
We are so thankful to be working with these amazing athletes who love Jesus. This is a special group of people and we would not want to share my time in Macha with anyone else. Thank you for your prayers and we ask that you continue to pray for us. For safety, for strength, joy, and unity among our team. God is with us and we are so excited to see what He will do.
Much Love,
Claire & Drew
