Abortion is a traumatic experience…

If you have been involved in an abortion, it has likely overwhelmed your life in many ways. Today you may be experiencing confusion, regret, guilt, grief, anxiety, and despair. These are common feelings, not only for the woman who undergoes the abortion, but for the father of the unborn child, siblings, grandparents, friends, and medical personnel.

For members of the Catholic faith, the pain of abortion is intensified by a sense of alienation from both God and Church. What you need to know and believe is that your Church understands and cares. Healing and reconciliation are rooted in the overpowering love of Jesus Christ and reflected in the heart of the Church’s ministry. As Church, we reach out to you with compassion, concern, and sacramental forgiveness.

If you are from another religious tradition or have no religious affiliation, contact us anyway. We strive to serve all who call in a manner respectful of the individual's beliefs.
