Project Rachel Offers healing, counseling, and reconciliation to those
who suffer from the aftermath of abortion   
Project Rachel is a Diocesan based healing network of caregivers, including priests, mental health professionals and others who provide one-on-one care to those struggling after involvement in an abortion. This is often a very helpful 'first step' for people seeking healing after an abortion experience.  
Project Rachel seeks to begin the healing process right in the heart of the Church.

NOTE: this is NOT a crisis hotline. Persons who are in crisis, or in danger, or those experiencing suicidal thoughts are urged to call "911" or the local emergency help number in your community, or to go to the nearest emergency room at a local hospital.

Rachel's Vineyard Healing Retreats 

Rachel’s Vineyard is a safe place to renew, rebuild and redeem hearts broken by abortion. Weekend retreats offer you a supportive, confidential and non-judgmental environment where women and men can express, release and reconcile painful post-abortive emotions to begin the process of restoration, renewal and healing
 The psychological and spiritual wounds of abortion can be sharp, deep and crippling. You may feel a deep numbness and may not be able to name the pain or recognize any of the symptoms. It can also have a devastating impact on the father or grandparents of the aborted child and friend/s of the mother.   You do not have to continue to hide in shame and fear. Rachel’s Vineyard’s Retreat is a chance to focus on this painful time in your life through a supportive non-judgmental process, in an atmosphere of confidentiality, understanding, and compassion. It is designed to help both women and men experience the mercy and compassion of God.
 If you have suffered through an abortion and have isolated yourself from healing and forgiveness, you might consider attending one our retreat weekends. For more information, contact Judy Warenkiewicz at 732-536-6871.  All inquiries are strictly confidential.
