\u2026 Rachel\u2019s Vineyard<\/a> is a fantastic organization that offers post abortive counseling for women and men<\/em> dealing with the aftereffects of abortion. <\/p>\n

They have an upcoming retreat here in Charlotte this month, November 21st-23rd. If you\u2019re interested in going please contact Maggi Fitzpatrick Nadol (704-370-3229, MNadol@CharlotteDiocese.org<\/a>) or Deacon Tom Rasmussen (828-495-7234, deacontom@centurylink.net<\/a>).<\/p>\n

For a full directory of retreats in the US click here<\/a>, outside the US click here<\/a>. <\/p>\n

If paying for the retreat is an issue, contact Maggie. She\u2019s an amazingly supportive woman who will do everything in her power to help you. Don\u2019t let money be an issue preventing you from recovery. <\/p>\n

Several years ago I attended one of their retreats. It was a deeply personal and emotional experience but one that brought a resolution to decades of hurt. It\u2019s one thing to be absolved of your sins and know you\u2019re forgiven, it\u2019s another thing entirely to forgive ourselves. <\/p>\n

If you think you might be ready to forgive yourself then contact your local director and make arrangements to attend their next retreat. <\/p>\n

Even if you feel like you don\u2019t deserve forgiveness, you need this retreat. You need this retreat more than anyone. Trust me, I know. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s time to let go of the hurt and get healing. <\/p>\n
