Myles Munroe Plane Crash Kills Famous Pastor, Wife And His Deputy; Funerals To Be Held Next Month

Myles Munroe plane crash, killing the famous pastor, happened on November 9th. The funeral will be held on December 4th.

There will be two services for the late pastor. The first one will be with the National Memorial Service of Thanksgiving and Praise on December 3rd and followed by, the next day, with the Home Going Service for Dr. Munroe and his wife, Ruth, who, unfortunately, was also killed in the accident.

The funeral will be hosted at the Bahamas Faith Ministries International, otherwise tagged as BFMI, Diplomat Center, which is located in Nassau.

Other events that lead up to the aforementioned services will also be announced at a later time. Apart from the pastor and his wife, Munroe's deputy, Pastor Richard Pinder, was also a casualty in the Myles Munroe plane crash. Pinder's funeral has been scheduled on December 2nd.

"We have literally been flooded with calls and well wishes from all over the world," said the BFMI Board of Trustees through a statement. "We have also received a number of phone calls from several Head of States, including Presidents of Countries, Prime Ministers, as well as well-known pastors, singers, actors, and dignitaries expressing their sympathies and who have all indicated a commitment to attend."

The statement continued to say, "On behalf of the family of Dr. Myles and Pastor Ruth Munroe and Dr. Richard Pinder, we would, once again, like to thank the Bahamian people as well as people from around the world for their expressions of love, well wishes and support. It truly means a lot to us."

The victims were instantly killed when the private jet that they were on hit a shipyard construction crane as it flew into the Grand Bahama International Airport just earlier this month. Being the famous religious leader whom he was, Munroe was flying to host a church conference, the Global Leadership Forum, which was to take place in Freeport.
