Life After Abortion

Experiencing an abortion is a very difficult with many short- and long-term effects. Abortion often effects a woman physically, psychologically, and spiritually -- in addition to straining her relationships with friends, family, and her spouse.

Men are also very much effected by abortion but in different ways.

There is help for those that seek reconciliation and healing. Below are some local resources and online communities. Many are free, low cost, or provide scholarships.

Silent No More

Few people anticipate the pain and trauma that can follow an abortion. The physical and emotional stresses may be devastating and often surface months or even years afterward.  For those who seek healing, we offer The Abortion Recovery group, a compassionate, confidential, and safe place for both women and men to find hope and help as they work through the emotional wounds of abortion.

Rachel’s Journey – New Braunfels

Offers one-day retreats for healing after abortion to come and experience the mercy, forgiveness, and healing love of God in the company of others who understand what you are going through. Retreats are open to all women, men, couples/anyone hurting because of abortion.

Men grieve too, and when both men and women attend the same retreat, both can heal wounds of abortion, mistrust, and suffering. Courage, understanding, and reconciliation are found through the mutual journey of grief into healing.

 

A life-changing opportunity for men who struggle with the emotional and spiritual pain of abortion. This retreat is a unique and effective process designed specifically to help men experience the mercy and compassion of God.

Healing from the pain of abortion is a journey. Whether you had an abortion last week, or 40 years ago, we're here to help.
