Praying about relocating from Illinois to Tennessee

  • Praying about relocating from Illinois to Tennessee

    FLF family network. Looking to make connections in Tennessee. Church, business, homeschool. 2 hours west or east of Nashville would be ideal. Great grandma (94) is in Camden, and my parents are in Montery. Looking to relocate my family to a spiritually fertile place to put down multi-generational roots to build our household and God’s church for present and future propagation of God’s kingdom. Now that Illinois passed gun control, I will be a felon come Jan. 2024. I know the lawsuits will start and hopefully tie it up in court for decades, but we are making plans toward relocation in 1-2 years.

    We are doing the same this summer God willing. Most likely to Brentwood (near Nashville) and building a business to glorify God.

    Hey Jason, you in IL currently? Columbia, Spring Hill are still on our top 5. Little too urban and pricey but still possible. We are trying to anchor to a church and Classical Conversations homeschool community. What kind of business are you in?

      Yes, currently live in Chicago (near Wrigley). We sell tools and supplies to manufacturers, contractors and utilities.

    If you do end up moving, our church is in Franklin and we have a lot of members from Spring Hill and some from Columbia. St. Mark Reformed Church (CREC). http://www.stmarkreformed.com

      Thanks, Ralph. Still working out logistics. I did talk to Pastor Brooks from Pilgrims Hill.

        Pastor Brooks is a great guy! We did Greek together last year and we’re very close to their church. We sponsored them into the CREC.

    Late to the convo, but if you decide to look further east, we’re in the Bristol/Tri-Cities area – saintpeterpresbyterian.org (CREC). IL refugees welcome!
