On Tuesday February 2nd a delegation from Holy Spirit Church delivered a check to Agape Flights which included donations from our Community given in the special missions and charities offering over the previous three Sundays. Your gracious generosity was once again demonstrated by your works and a check was presented to Agape Flights for $1,500.00 to go directly for aid to the Haitian earthquake victims. We heard many harrowing stories of survival and heroic attempts to help those in need. The flight hangar was filled with food, medicine, and items of every imaginable description and people were working hand to hand to prepare these items for direct shipment to Haiti. The director of Agape Flights said that because of their previous work in Haiti they had been some of the earliest and most effective help to the people “on the ground” because they already knew how to get in and out of the air strips and around the country without bureaucratic complication. We are tentatively planning another opportunity to participate in this offering to Haiti in the near future. Thank you everyone who donated and for all your prayers. We really are making life easier for those who have been hurt so badly!
