Testimonies
How has a post abortion healing retreat changed your life?
Here are real testimonies from real women.
"A wrong decision made over 40 years ago left me with crushing grief, regret and brokenness. I didn’t even understand why I felt so depressed. I knew God loved me and forgave me, but I couldn’t forgive myself. Fear of someone finding out about my past kept me silent and in shame, keeping me away from fellowship with other Christians. These thoughts filled my head, until one day I heard a courageous woman speak at my church about her own abortion and how through Jesus Christ, she had been set free. I couldn’t fathom how this was possible, but I reached out for help and the healing process began. I was guided by women who had been where I was and knew exactly how I felt. I was able to grieve the loss of my unborn child and begin a path to recovery and restoration. The Lord has blessed me with joy in place of my mourning and has done amazing things in my life. I see myself differently now and know I am worthy of God's love and the love of others. I am set free. Help is available through the Deeper Still ministry. It’s confidential, safe and available from people who understand first hand what you feel. You are not alone."

"I hoped God would forgive me for my abortion at 16 but now I KNOW IT! I finally have forgiven myself. I thought every bad thing that happened to me or my family was God punishing me. I tried to numb the pain but it has eaten me up for 48 years. I KNOW It was God who sent me to the Deeper Still retreat and I am redeemed.The people there were so full of Jesus and now I am too💖🙏🏼💖. My life has changed so beautifully through this ministry. I want to be a part of that ministry. I left all that condemnation up on that mountain and I can feel joy again 🙏🏼💖🙏🏼'"

"I felt like a hamster on a wheel, striving to get closer to the Lord but never growing in relationship with Him. It was only when I completely surrendered my past hurt from my abortion, that He completely transformed my life! He had been pursuing me the whole time and wanted to heal all the pieces of my broken heart. At a Deeper Still retreat this past April, Jesus lovingly met me there!! He took away my shame and guilt and reminded me of my true identity….a daughter of the most high King. ✝️ I am forever grateful!"

"I’ve never been able to conceive a child after my abortion. I was confident that this was punishment for my sin... that God was angry with me. The abortion affected my entire life... I didn’t smile and laugh much. Depression was always there. In desperation I agreed to attend a Bible study for post abortive women (SaveOne), then attended a Deeper Still Retreat a few years later. Please don’t hear me being trite or ‘churchy’ when I say I understood for the first time that Jesus’ sacrifice of His life gave me the freedom from my sin and the freedom to start over, to have a real, joy-filled life. It’s all about Him, His love, His grace, His mercy. If you’ve had an abortion, tell someone you trust, message the church ([email protected]), go to a Bible study, attend a weekend retreat... God does not want His children to live in shame, He wants us to experience freedom."
