We as a church are currently in the midst of 21 days of prayer and fasting, as well as our annual Kingdom Builders offering. Our 5th birthday is coming up in February 🤯and we are believing God for $50,000! Talk about big vision! Through prayer we have decided $30,000 will go to the things we are called to locally in Wilmington and $20,000 will go globally to the work we do with our partners in Southern Africa. If you would like to give follow the link 828church.com/give and use the pull-down tab for Kingdom Builders. Thank you for building God's kingdom with us!
