For those suffering from past abortion decisions, “Project Rachel helped me so much in dealing with the shame that I have felt for over 40 years.  The retreat gave me hope. I now know that I can once again be active in my faith.”  Many women suffer from the pain of a past abortion. The Project Rachel ministry of the Archdiocese of Boston provides confidential support for post-abortion hope and healing through its one-day retreats and referrals to specially trained priests for sacramental Reconciliation (confession). For more information, contact Project Rachel at 508.651.3100 or  [email protected]. Trust in the tender mercy of God!
