\u201cI am living proof that there is hope and healing after an abortion.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

My name is Phyllis Young. When I was 18 years old I had an abortion. It was the worst decision I made in my entire life. For almost 30 years I suffered in silence, with the shame, guilt, pain, loss and isolation that comes after an abortion. Several years ago I was blessed with the opportunity to attend a Rachel\u2019s Vineyard weekend retreat! There I experienced the profound mercy, healing and restoration that only God can give! I was given the chance to name and give honor and dignity to the baby I lost through my choice of abortion. I now have a great passion to help others who\u2019ve had an abortion I\u2019ve since been trained, approved by and joined the world\u00adwide ministry of post\u00adabortion retreats, called Rachel\u2019s Vineyard. Sister Nancy Boushey along with Sisters Fran and Luella have welcomed us with open arms and every means of possible support, to their Benedictine Monastery of the Good Shepherd just outside of Rio Grande City. There they have provided us with a perfect setting for these retreats where men and women alike can come for a weekend retreat away from it all..<\/p>\n

So, for those of you who have had an abortion and need healing (this includes men) this is your time! Consider this your personal invitation. This is your time to heal, and receive God\u2019s forgiveness and mercy! Your time, to be rid of the pain and suffering and to start the amazing life that God has truly intended for you all along! I speak from my heart and from my own experience. Know that all has been prepared with great care and with much prayer for you.<\/p>\n

The Benedictine Monastery is the beautiful oasis that has been chosen for these retreats. When you step onto the grounds you feel that you\u2019re truly stepping upon holy ground. Here you will find a safe non\u00adjudgmental atmosphere in which to heal. Although this is a Catholic retreat, all are welcome. We will celebrate Mass and the Sacrament of Reconciliation will be available for all who wish to participate. All meals are provided. If the cost of the retreat is an issue, please let us know. All inquires are completely confidential! Please call me at the above number or email me at the email address above! Take courage, Jesus is calling you!<\/p>\n

COME AND LET THE HEALING BEGIN!<\/strong><\/p>\n
