Caring for others in nothing new for Brad Schroeder. As an LCC Kare 9 Military Ministry veteran handler with Kare 9 Susie and former Top Dog for LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Susie (St. Peter – Arlington Heights, Illinois) for many years, Brad has shown the mercy, compassion, presence and the proclamation of Jesus Christ to those suffering and in need. Brad is in the process of extensive home renovations to better accommodate five additional people living with them, including modifications for his daughter-in-law who needs physical assistance. Financial assistance is needed now to prepare for their arrival.
 
Brad and his wife Ginny have now taken on an expanded role as in-law’s and grandparents. After the sudden death of their son in late March, Brad and Ginny have welcomed their daughter-in-law and four grandsons into their home. As soon as the school year ends for the boys, the family will move from Utah to Arlington Heights to live with them. In the midst of their sadness, the boys are looking forward to beginning a new chapter in their lives at St. Peter Lutheran School where their father, grandmother, and great-grandfather attended as children to continue a legacy of four generations embracing the love of Jesus Christ in their lives.
