2007-07-11: Wilmington Church of Christ.

Praise God!  The Wilmington Church of Christ elders have approved participation in Project 29. A check for $24,000 will be sent to Team Expansion around the end of August.  Praise the Lod or making Wilmington #14 in the list of "29" partners.

"This was an easy decision on the part of the Wilmington leadership. Team Expansion has provided strong support and guidance for Wilmington missionaries John Bliffen, David Atkin, and April Hedrick (Cook).
