Updates from Agape

King Air 90 - January 23

  • Agape Flights’ King Air 90 right landing gear collapsed upon landing in Jacmel , Haiti .

  • The two pilots are safe and have arrived to the U.S.

  • Information is limited at this time; the damage to the plane is being assessed, but it is clear Agape Flights’ King Air 90 will not be in service for a significant time.

YES, Agape Flights is still flying often and able to land in Port au Prince. Agape Flights' planes are being met by the missionaries we serve. The supplies are reaching the medical clinics, orphanages, schools, and churches through the 130 missionary families we regularly serve in PAP. Mike Labady, Agape's Emergency Field Director is on the ground in Port au Prince working to coordinate activities.

Thank you for praying with us for our missionaries and all of the people of Haiti.
