After Abortion Recovery

Bridges of Hope

Had an abortion?

You aren’t alone.

National statistics state 1 in 4 women have had an abortion by the age of 45.

Few are willing to talk about their abortions because of the shame and regret they feel.

As a result, many women and men are suffering in silence.

Support and Healing

Bridges of Hope offers an in-depth study and support program to those who are struggling with the effects of a past abortion. This takes place across a nine-week healing and support class or a 3-day weekend retreat. Using Biblical principles as tools for healing, the study addresses topics including: grief, anger, guilt, depression, and forgiveness.

Symptoms After an Abortion

These symptoms may show right away or they may not reveal themselves for many years. They include:

  • Guilt
  • Anxiety
  • Feeling numb
  • Depression
  • Avoiding babies and pregnant women
  • Inability to bond with future children
  • Eating disorders
  • Drug and alcohol abuse
  • Fear of infertility

A post-abortive person rarely suffers every symptom here and not every symptom is included in this list. If someone is experiencing one or more of these symptoms, an after-abortion care recovery program like Bridges of Hope can help.

Know you’re forgiven?

We can still help.

Many Christian women and men don’t want people to know they’ve had an abortion in their past. They would rather move on and not talk about it. If that’s you, we want to help.

What Bridges of Hope Participants Say

“Shame keeps people isolated. People think Christians aren’t supposed to struggle. But, if you’re willing to be real and allow Jesus into your pain, you will find freedom. This is real healing, not surface-level stuff.”
“It was one of the most healing things of my life. Take that step of faith into the healing the Lord has for you.”
