Wilmington Progress!

Administrator John Frye was up this week for a variety of meetings preparing for the completion of Trinity Grove, the newest Lutheran Home located in Wilmington. He and LSA staff are planning the interior furnishings and equipment, and beginning to think about start up procedures.

John took this picture in early August. We almost have a front entrance. He estimates we are at 40% completed. We still think we can open for ministry on April 1, 2011.

Stay tuned for more.
