AGM’s first annual banquet at the Meadowview Conference Center in Kingsport was a huge success. Everyone present thoroughly enjoyed themselves. There were artifacts and photos displayed for countries around the world that AGM is involved in; there were flags on display from many of those countries; and there was a slide presentation of the children in Africa. We had excellent entertainment from three different singers and musicians. A wonderful meal was served by Meadowview. Ten door prizes were given away and three more prizes given away among the new partners that joined AGM that night. (Our thanks go to Texas Roadhouse, Essestial Therapies, White’s Floral, and Denny’s Quick Print for their donations for prizes.) Then we were shown a power point presentation by Dr. Nelson on the status of each continent around the world. It will be hard to top this one, but we are already working on the banquet for next year, and we know it will be even bigger and better!

Agape Global Missions will be hosting a banquet at the Meadowview Conference Resort and Convention Center in Kingsport, Tennessee on June 6, 2008, beginning at 6:30 p.m.  This special fund-raiser will be to help support the children in Kenya. 

At one children’s center in Gatanga Kenya, over 200 children are being fed (twice a day), clothed, and given an education.  This takes many resources.  We need your help!  Come join us for a wonderful meal and find out what you can do to help the children of Kenya, Africa and also in other nations of the world. 

There will be displays at the banquet from each of the nations that AGM is working in and/or getting ready to work in, plus a special slide presentation showing some of the children in Kenya.  There will also be a display of the flags of the nations, special music, a powerpoint presentation by Dr. Larry K. Nelson, and of course, a wonderful meal prepared by Meadowview.

 Seating at the banquet is limited and tickets will need to be purchased in advance.  The tickets are $50 per person, and can be purchased at the AGM home office, 1416 Bloomingdale Pike, Kingsport, TN.  Deadline for ticket purchase is June 2. For further information, you may contact us at 423-247-0200 or email us at agmglobal@charter.net .  We would love to have you join us.

For those of you who live in the Tri-Cities area of East Tennessee, be sure to tune in to WCYB television tonight, Thursday, March 27th, at 6 p.m.  AGM will be featured on the program, Faith Focus with Jim Conrad.  The program will tell about AGM and the project to send the container to Kenya.
