Have you experienced, or been touched by, pregnancy losses through abortion? Maybe you’re wondering whether it’s impacting your life today and that’s why you’re here, to check out that theory.
You are not alone. Some people do find that past abortion is impacting their lives today. We will help you sort through the complicated emotions that can surround abortion. We’ve been there. We understand your mixed feelings.
We offer free three-day retreats known as Deeper Still for women and men. Retreats run from Friday afternoon through Sunday afternoon. These retreats provide a safe and confidential place where you can examine the impact of abortion on your life – the emotions and realities of living with past abortion.
Many people who attend a retreat report being able to find the healing and restoration they are looking for. Retreats are facilitated by trained, caring, compassionate people who walk you through this process.
Whether it was yesterday or 40 years ago, it can be hard to talk about.
You may be experiencing emotional, physical or relational struggles resulting from a past abortion decision including:
God brings healing to people in a variety of ways, but we have found a retreat setting is one of the most conducive venues to help people go to deep places of healing in a short amount of time.
When you need information on all your options in a confidential judgment-free environment, we provide free services, resources, and encouragement to help you make good decisions for your future. We are here for YOU!
