EMI has purchased land in Onga Village, Thondwe, that will eventually be developed into a multi-purpose operating base. This base will allow EMI not only an opportunity to reach the surrounding village, but provide facilities for training candidates for Operation Impact that will be launched into unreached areas. The base will also allow EMI the flexibility to house incoming short-term mission teams, ministry interns, and provide a venue for pastoral conferences and training. The future EMI base in Onga Village will greatly enhance and strengthen the ministries impact in the country of Malawi.
