After Abortion Support
A woman’s experience with abortion is unique to her. Following an abortion, many women initially experience relief. The perceived crisis is over and life returns to normal. However, for many women, the crisis is not over. Processing an abortion is often a complex experience, as people have many different emotions surrounding their abortion. Months, even years later, significant issues may develop.
Hope and healing is possible!
Abiding Hope hosts a 100% confidential abortion recovery Bible study several times throughout the year. Forgiven and Set Free is a seven week study, offering women a safe place to share about their past abortion experiences and receive God’s grace and healing. Participants will learn how to apply biblical truth to post-abortive trauma symptoms such as:
- Guilt
- Anger
- Shame
- Remorse or regret
- Loss of self-esteem or self-confidence
- Feelings of isolation and loneliness
- Sleep problems and bad dreams
- Relationship problems
- Thoughts of suicide*
For those struggling with an abortion in their past, it is important to remember that you are not alone. If you or someone you know is ready to seek post-abortive care and recovery, we would love to have you join us for our next session. Please check back in the fall for the dates and times of the next session.
To protect confidentiality and provide a safe environment for women, the Bible study is limited to eight participants per session. Books and supplies are provided at no-cost, however donations are welcome. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you are interested. Please ask to speak to Angel Hilemon or Kathy Davies.
