Extends healing and restoration after abortion
Every woman's situation is different. Abortion is often a traumatic event because women feel pressured or trapped into an abortion decision. If you are ready to deal with your abortion(s), a trained Hope Renewed lay counselor can help lead you through the steps of restoration:
| - |
Breaking through denial |
| - |
Working through guilt and experiencing God's forgiveness |
| - |
Releasing anger and forgiveness toward yourself and/or those involved in the abortion. |
| - |
Grieving the loss of your aborted child or children. |
Hope Renewed offers several avenues for healing:
For women: Forgiven and Set Free:
- A confidential 12-week Bible study led by trained lay counselors
- Meets weekly for two hours
