long days for Jeff... dispatched 4 planes yesterday... still have 2 on the island at the moment... one more going today... all taking relief supplies and help to the missionaries in Port...however, it's so FRUSTRATING to do all this work and then have the supplies held in customs because the lack of one simple document!!! please keep praying for the situation down there... in ALL aspects.
I miss my husband. He worked all weekend. Then yesterday, he even pulled an all nighter so he didn't even sleep and worked through the night. I saw him for 30 minutes. He is working so hard to get all of the relief supplies to our missionaries. I am very proud of him, but miss him very much...

Monday Update
It was a good day! Three flights departed from Agape’s hangar in Venice , FL.
Agape Flights’ King Air 90 left this morning carrying emergency supplies into Port-au-Prince and landed around 4 p.m. The plane will depart for the Dominican Republic where it will be loaded with supplies standing by at the airport in the DR. Water and critical supplies will be shuttled back to Port au Prince early Tuesday (1/19) morning.
In addition, a donated Aztec left our hangar at noon headed for the Dominican Republic .
We have two time slots to land planes in Port au Prince tomorrow. The King Air will land first followed by the Aztec loaded with donated supplies from the D.R. The current plan is to use the Aztec as a shuttle for the next week between Port au Prince and the DR.
And a third plane, a Diamond Jet with doctors and medical supplies left the hangar early this morning. The trip is flying under Agape Flights banner, but the supplies and one doctor on board were not supplied through Agape Flights . This plane will return to the Agape Flights hangar tomorrow.
Agape Flights also shipped a 20 foot sea container packed with emergency supplies. The cargo cleared US customs this afternoon and is scheduled to be in Port au Prince tomorrow (Tuesday, 1/19). Although the port is closed because of extensive damage, this ship has been cleared to enter. We were given free passage for all the supplies and the container! Praise God!!
