Sibale

In response to my dad’s request, here is a picture of the man who makes it all happen. Chakunja Sibale is the director of MCV (remember there is no paid American staff). It really is impossible to imagine this place without him. He works hard to over see all that goes on at MCV, and has since it started 10 years ago. There is certainly much more at MCV than Gracious. There are over 100 employees and over 70 village volunteers. There is a nursery, medical clinic, library, technical/vocational school, and Gracious Secondary School all on the MCV campus, with lots more being built. And of course much of MCV’s work is done in the villages it serves. Sibale makes sure this is all running smoothly, and like I said earlier, he never takes a day off. On top of it all he has 3 kids of his own, and is constantly taking in orphans at his house, actually, azungu too for that matter. He’s a great guy, and very laid back despite all the work he does.
