Dear friend,
I would like to personally welcome you to Rachel's Vineyard!
If the emotional and spiritual wounds of a past abortion have
been sapping faith, love and joy from your life, I can promise,
that if you enter this process for healing, your life will begin
to change.
A
journey into Rachel's Vineyard is a gift only you can open your
heart to receive. The spiritual process of reconciliation
with yourself, with God and your lost child will truly result in
wholeness and freedom and a difference you will be able to feel
inside your heart. This healing process will give you a deeper
compassion for yourself. It's also a journey that will
give you a new appreciation of your strength and courage.
By traveling a path of healing in Rachel's Vineyard, you will
experience an end to isolation, despair and hopelessness. You
will have the potential to revisit abandoned goals and dreams,
and articulate your truest and deepest desires for your future.
Whatever your fears or hesitations may
be, I encourage you to take the steps toward receiving the
healing and peace that you deserve. Rachel's Vineyard
provides a tried and true journey that over
100,000 women and men have traveled. You can be confident
that there are wonderful people in Rachel's Vineyard who are
ready and eager to accompany you.
You are not alone. A new chapter of your life awaits you.
Take courage, God is calling you towards peace, love, hope, and
freedom.

Founder, Rachel's Vineyard Ministries
Welcome
Dear Friends,
You
have found a safe place to come with your pain -- a pain that
you often feel will never go away. Here at Rachel's Vineyard,
you will meet people who understand, because they are in the
same position that you are. You will meet people who care about
you and about the child (or children) you have lost. You will
meet people who know the way of healing, and are ready to
welcome you into that journey that leads to mercy and peace.
Whatever your religious faith may be, Rachel's Vineyard will
assist you to find God's mercy for your abortion(s). Rachel's
Vineyard can provide you the individual attention you need, as
well as the retreat experience, by which you walk hand in hand
with others on the road of healing.
Welcome to a new chapter of your life!
