After the abortion

21Feb20

Do yourselves a favour and look at this photography series called After the abortion (#afterthe abortion). We all know about the power of image…. well, each of these images speaks more, much more, than a million words.

What does it tell us? That we are not alone; that the grief is real; that not a single day goes by when we don’t remember the lives that were lost; that more people than we imagine carry a hidden wound that desperately needs to be exposed to the healing touch of Christ.

Here at the Initiative, through the work of Rachel’s Vineyard, we help women and men, of all ages and religious persuasions (or none), to uncover the wound and allow the healing balm in.

As we enter the great season of Lent, let’s pray to the Father of mercies that we will be ever more sensitive to that wound in our brothers and sisters, and be the listening, compassionate ear that they long for, and a beacon of hope. They’ve carried the burden for too long.

If you, or someone you know, has been hurt through their own abortion experience, or that of a family member or friend, please don’t hesitate to contact Sr Andrea on 07816 942 824.
