How do we as Lutherans support women facing unplanned pregnancies? Deaconess Jessica Thompson (Director of Program and Ministry Services for Redeeming Life Outreach Ministries) joins Sarah to talk about the mission and work of Redeeming Life Outreach Ministries (RLOM), the need for this type of ministry in the LCMS, how RLOM has impacted women with physical and spiritual care over the years, the RLOM expansion plans for St. Louis, and how people can support RLOM in general as well as this expansion plan. Learn more at rlom.org and facebook.com/RedeemingLifeOutreachMinistries.

As you grab your morning coffee (and pastry, let’s be honest), join hosts Andy Bates and Sarah Gulseth as they bring you stories of the intersection of Lutheran life and a secular world. Catch real-life stories of mercy work of the LCMS and partners, updates from missionaries across the ocean, and practical talk about how to live boldly Lutheran.
