About Redeemed Lives Northern Illinois
is a chapter of RLM and brings the teachings and principles of Redeemed Lives to those who live in the north and northwestern Chicago suburbs. This chapter of Redeemed Lives Ministry International is overseen by Dawn Zeller. In 2005 she joined Mario Bergner's ministry while he still lived and ran RLM in Wheaton, Illinois. During that time, Dawn was a co-small group leader and trained under Mario. In 2006, she finished her studies and work needed to become an accredited Redeemed Lives teacher. Over the past several years, she has been invited several times to serve as a part of the Redeemed Lives International teaching team in Europe. While serving, she has held teaching workshops and joined the European ministry teams as a prayer minister to offer prayer for those attending. Dawn is joined here locally with several others, one of which is also an accredited teacher, to offer Redeemed Lives to Lake County. The RL course begins with a day-long retreat called the Shepherd’s Voice, designed to help you discern God's voice through His word and prayer. This retreat teaches how to pray the Bible and the five forms of prayer found in the Lord's Prayer: praise, intercession, petition, forgiveness and thanksgiving. RL then continues with twenty-four weekly meetings. Each meeting consists of worship, teaching and small group sharing. The evening ends with the small group leaders praying over the students. RL is a confidential program where consistent attendance and personal vulnerability in the small group is required for continuation in the RL pastoral course.
