Local missions

Wrightsville Beach Baptist Church is here to reach our community for Christ!  We can't wait to impact the Wrightsville Beach and Wilmington communities.  There are 2,477 residents of Wrightsville Beach, 113,000 in Wilmington, and 216,298 who call New Hanover County home.  We are here to point as many as we can to Christ as we make Him famous!  


Engage with us as we serve with First Fruit Ministries, Baptists on Mission Disaster Relief and local mission projects.

Mission

We partner with Ugandan based ministries to make Christ known.


Vision

Deuteronomy 1:8 is a ministry of Wrightsville Beach Baptist Church which partners with Ugandans to make Christ known by giving a well for every village, a home for every child, education for the next generation, sustainable food solutions, and Biblical training for rural pastors.  


  1. A well for every village. Living water and water for living.
  2. A home for every child.  We partner with local ministries to see families reunited where possible, provide shelter for vulnerable children, and physical, spiritual and social support for vulnerable families.
  3. We support education for the next generation by partnering with strong local Christ-centered primary schools and through scholarships for secondary education and life skill training.      
  4. We pursue longterm investments which will lead to sustainable local food solutions.  Food support in the short term with longterm agriculture and animal husbandry training in the future.   
  5. We offer Biblical training for local pastors serving remote villages.

“They will drink from wells of salvation.” Isaiah 12:3   


“. . .caring for orphans and widows in their distress.”  James 1:27


“Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it?”  James 2:15-16 NIV


Seek wisdom at any cost.  Proverbs 4:6-7


“Look, I am giving all this land to you!  Go in and occupy it, for it is the land the Lord swore to give to your ancestors Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and to all their descendants.”  Deuteronomy 1:8
