A Ministry of Hope and Healing: Project Rachel
At St. Michael Church, we recognize the deep emotional and spiritual wounds that abortion can leave on women, men, and families. We support Project Rachel, a compassionate and confidential ministry that provides hope, healing, and reconciliation through God’s grace.
What is Project Rachel?
Project Rachel is a post-abortion healing ministry that offers confidential support to those struggling with the pain of abortion. Through the help of professional counselors, clergy, and trained volunteers, participants receive guidance in processing grief, finding forgiveness, and embracing God’s mercy.
The Project Rachel website (rachelnc.org) offers valuable resources, including:
– Personal testimonials from those who have experienced healing.
– Reflections and prayers for those seeking comfort.
– Guidance for family and friends supporting loved ones on their healing journey.
– Information on upcoming retreats and local support groups.
