There is exciting news to report about the Redeeming Life Outreach Ministry [RLOM}!! As you may remember, our synod has one maternity home for women with crises pregnancies in Florida. For years the plan was to expand to a second home in The Northern Illinois District. Unfortunately, there have been many setbacks particularly with zoning. It was recently announced that we are under contract to purchase a home on the property of Immanuel Lutheran East Dundee . The home will be renovated to become a 4 bedroom maternity home.
There has been ongoing fundraising to accomplish the expansion. Our church alone raised over $5000 last year for the expansion in our baby bottle campaign. Our school children gave over $400 in chapel offerings too!
Ongoing support will be needed for the home when it is up and running. Please stay tuned to see how you might participate and support this wonderful ministry that celebrates God- given life!!
If you have any question or ideas please reach out to the RLOM advocates at Immanuel, Erica Ciro and Laura Klein
