Lori’s House Update – September 2011
We are making great progress on the road to Lori’s House! The road is a vital part of the infrastructure that must be put in place so that we can have safe travel to and from Lori’s House for our girls and their babies. Continue reading
It’s Time to Hate What God Hates
Since the prophets have prophesied that we would build Lori’s House, we are doing our best to be obedient to that direction from the Lord. With the help of our faithful partners, we have purchased the land, drawn up the plans, and we are in the process of paving the road to the valley where this part of The Refuge will be built.
We are very serious about this place being used as a Last Days refuge. That’s what we envisioned in the beginning and that’s our goal. An End Times refuge takes on many characteristics, but none more important than saving innocent life.
Cindy Jacobs said that Lori’s House will be a prototype that others will copy. Can you imagine where we could be in this country in 5 years if every church would develop their own facility for saving babies? If they can’t do it alone, they could band together to get it done, or come and help us! Now that’s a vision God can bless.
As Jim preaches and as we read in our Bibles and see on the news every day, we are in the Days of Revelation. Nobody knows how far into it we are and nobody knows when Jesus will come again. We have the signs to watch for, but we do not know the day or the hour.
I only know one thing, I know it’s time to do whatever we’re going to do for the cause of Christ. It’s time to act in ways that God instructs and that He can bless. And I know it’s time to hate what God hates. Proverbs 6:16-19 lays it out for us: “These six things the LORD hates, yes, seven are an abomination to Him: a proud look, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that are swift in running to evil, a false witness who speaks lies, and one who sows discord among brethren.”
I’m not talking about going to the abortion clinics and picketing and yelling and screaming to show how much we hate abortion. It’s time for the church to stand up and say “we are not going to take this anymore.” Preachers don’t have to scream and yell about abortion being murder. We KNOW it’s murder.
But what we can do is put our money where our mouth is. You can’t just scream in the streets about it – you have to do something!
President Reagan once said he noticed that everyone who is for abortion has already been born. Now that’s a wise observation, I would say.
You can’t say “I don’t know” because you do know. You know and God knows you know. Proverbs 24:11,12 NCV says, “Save those who are being led to their death; rescue those who are about to be killed. If you say, “We don’t know anything about this,” God, who knows what’s in your mind, will notice. He is watching you, and he will know. He will reward each person for what he has done.”
We are putting our money where our mouth is. We’re taking this step and bucking the crowd and we’re not going to listen to the naysayers! We need your help. When you help us build Lori’s House, you will share in the reward from God who is watching us all.
We love you!

Lori’s House Update
We are extremely pleased to report that paving the road to Lori’s House has begun! The heavy equipment is in full swing as we get this exciting project underway. The road is a vital part of the infrastructure that is necessary as we start to build Lori’s House.
We are also excited that we have the very first tangible expression of the inspiration for Lori’s House décor – a beautiful arched double door that will welcome everyone who comes into Lori’s House at the main entrance. These doors are exquisite, with double-arched glass panels on each side. They will go beautifully with the décor that Lori has chosen and described as ‘shabby chic’. The doors were purchased at a Habitat for Humanity ReStore with donations from our faithful partners.
