Hope After Abortion

Are You Hurting After an Abortion Decision?

Is the pain not going away, months or even many years after your abortion?
Are you afraid to talk about it, even with loved ones?

You are not alone. We are here for you!

Many women struggle with the false belief that they can’t talk about this with other Christians, and that no one will understand—these beliefs are not true. There is hope!

Life First is a Christian ministry that saves lives by ministering to women consideration abortion through the First Care Women’s Health pregnancy medical centers. The Lord also heals hearts of women and men who have experienced abortion. We use excellent Bible studies to help women experience the Lord’s forgiveness.

What You Can Expect

Many of Life First’s volunteers and staff members have experienced abortion earlier in their lives. They know what you are going through. You will begin by meeting one-on-one with an experienced volunteer. It’s a safe, confidential and non-judgmental place for you to share your feelings, fears and questions. Some women benefit from continued one-on-one meetings, and others are able to join our small group Bible study.

This 10-week Bible study provides support and encouragement in a safe and confidential setting for your healing journey.

Free, Confidential and Non-Judgmental

Abortion Hurts Until You Accept Christ’s Forgiveness

Abortion can affect women years, even decades after the procedure —

even Christians who have repented. Post Abortion Stress (PAS) is found to have profound emotional and spiritual impact on women and their families. Studies have found that abortion significantly increases risk for:

- Clinical depression and anxiety
- Drug and alcohol abuse
- Symptoms consistent with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Suicidal thoughts and behavior

There is help!

Testimonies of Forgiveness

“I see clearly now that God does not desire us to live with the shame and burden of our past mistakes when we have repented.”

“I am so thankful for this ministry and the ladies that lead the post-abortion class. Everywhere I go I encounter women living in the same pain I felt. Don’t let the enemy keep you in the darkness of shame. I encourage you regardless of who you are or how long ago your abortion was, God can heal you too!”

"I was made to feel comfortable despite the circumstances and I really appreciated the attentiveness of the team."

"I felt really welcomed and I was able to open up and share feelings and felt safe."
