Sending Mail

Flying with Agape in December. A beautiful sunset over the ocean.

As a kid, getting mail was always one of my favorite things! I remember Mama letting me sign up for the “mailbox club”. When that letter came in every month I was so excited to go and get it! I still love getting mail to this day (as long as it isn’t bills). Nothing makes my day more than getting a letter or package in the mail. Thanks to an awesome mission, Agape Flights, I have the ability to receive mail. Agape is a wonderful mission located in Venice, FL. I had the opportunity to visit with them in December of 2020 and meet all of the sweet people there. They fly to several countries in the Caribbean, serving missionaries. I highly suggest checking out their website https://www.agapeflights.com/ or following them on Facebook https://web.facebook.com/agape.flights/ to learn more about their mission!

They come into Cayes almost every Thursday to deliver mail to home and foreign missionaries living and serving in Southern Haiti. I have had the pleasure of assisting in our post office here in Cayes several times. It is so exciting for us all to receive sweet letters from friends and supporters, important things we need for ministry that we can’t purchase here, and sometimes fun little treats for us.

Otis arrived to Haiti via Agape in August of 2019.
I returned to the states on Agape in December 2020.

If you are interested in sending something to me you can do so easily by mailing it to Tessa Andrews c/o Agape Flights 30420 100 Airport Ave E. Venice, FL 32485. Letters coming in and out are free of charge for me. Packages coming in are charged for shipping and customs per pound. If you send something, I ask that you consider donating to those costs. While it doesn’t sound like a big price, it does add up! You can find all information about sending packages and paying for shipping on their website if you follow this link: https://www.agapeflights.com/send-a-package/. Of course, if you have any questions you can contact me or Agape Flights. Something to keep in mind is that it sometimes takes a while for a package to get to me.

This mission is one that I am so very thankful for! How awesome is it that I can get things that I may need or want they may not be available to me here in Haiti as well as letters from sweet friends. And I get the fun of opening up mail again!
