This came in an e-mail from Agape Flights, the mail service that brings mail and boxes to us once a week. We are so grateful for their longstanding service to the missionaries here on the field in Haiti.

Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. We’re so grateful for all those at Agape who so cheerfully do their jobs. They were here before we landing almost 36 years ago!

Dear missionaries,

Twas the flight before Christmas
And lined up in a “train”
Sat cargo on carts
The last load for the plane.

The boxes were weighed,
The mail bundled and bagged.
In just a few days
Great fun was to be had.

Christmas cards from dear friends
Wrapped presents from family.
Toys ordered from Amazon
Target, Walmart and JCPenny.

For Agape it’s a privilege
To transport with great care
The special things from your loved ones
Who are here while you’re there.

So from our hearts to yours,
As you serve the nations,
May the gift of God’s Love
Be the key to your celebrations.

Wishing each of you a very merry Christmas and a Happy new year!!!
