Testimonials

“I felt like I wasn’t judged, I wasn’t lectured, I was just healed.” "This cloud of depression no longer hangs over my head, I feel alive again!""Church on Sunday feels so good. I go to communion and I feel like a member of the Church (rather than an outsider) for the first time in many years since my abortions.""The family relationships are better and I feel a lot happier since the workshop.""I came home Sunday night feeling so good. I called lots of people because I couldn't contain my enthusiasm.""I've gained a much better understanding of Jesus and the Bible. I can receive God's forgiveness and I can forgive myself. I'm at peace again."

Scholarships Available

We offer scholarships to make sure our retreats are accessible to everyone. For more information, please reach out to Rachel's Hope.
