LOMT has no facilities for pets. Guest pets are NOT permitted on LOMT property.

LOMT is committed to providing a safe and secure environment for people who participate in ministry activities, including those who use assistance animals. Please review our guidelines regarding both service and emotional support animals. This policy is intended to comply generally with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

• Service Animals: The ADA defines a service animal as a dog that has been individually trained to do work or perform tasks for an individual with a disability. The task(s) performed by the service animal must be directly related to the person’s disability. We welcome people with service animals on ministry premises. Ministry leaders may ask individuals with service animals a few questions, including: • Is the animal required because of a disability? • What work or task has the animal been trained to perform?
  • Lutheran Church Charities (LCC) is a Recognized Service Organization of the Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod and is therefore classified as a service animal ministry.
• Emotional Support Animals: An emotional support animal (also known as a comfort animal) provides reassurance just by being with a person. Dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, and many other species can serve as emotional support animals. However, they do not qualify as “service animals” under the ADA. Therefore, our organization has chosen NOT to allow emotional support animals on its premises. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause to you or your family.
