Send a Taste of Home to a Missionary Family!
Agape Flights Missionary Thanksgiving Dinner Project is Underway
Every year or as long as anyone can remember since the 1980s, a planeload of frozen turkeys has departed southwest Florida for the mission field shortly before Thanksgiving Day. Laden with dozens of the frozen fowl, this special flight has also been stuffed with stuffing, crammed with cranberry sauce, and filled with pie filling.
This trip is an annual flight of passage, a very important way the Agape Flights family of staff, volunteers, business partners, and donors bless the scores of missionary families who will spend this Thanksgiving Day in the mission field.
But we need your help to make it happen!
For your contribution of just $80, we’ll deliver a complete Thanksgiving meal, with turkey and all the trimmings, to a missionary family in Haiti, the Dominican Republic, or the Bahamas. You can donate $80 for one meal, give in $80 increments to send multiple meals, or simply send any amount you’d like to help us shop for turkeys, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, stuffing, pumpkin pies, and whipped cream.
Special thanks to our Thanksgiving flight sponsor, Regulator Marine. Thanks, also, to the students at Venice Christian School for decorating the special boxes we use to pack this special cargo!
Last year, you generously contributed more than the total costs for our entire Thanksgiving project. If we receive more than the program costs this year, we’ll designate the excess to an upcoming facilities project that will help us serve missionaries well into the future.
