If you, or someone you love, is hurting from a past abortion, please consider joining us on this powerful journey of hope and healing! Our team looks forward to serving you!
I am considering coming to this. I would really like to see a retreat for Birth moms or parents who lost parenting their child to adoption. Support for birth parents is very hard to find and is needed far beyond the initial adoption. I am now a grandma, but am often too shy to say so, or feel worthy of it. Thanks
Please contact us through phone or email if you would like to register for a retreat.
I am interested in going on a retreat in May. Are there any openings in Cullman Alabama?
Susan, yes, we have openings. Please contact Maria (contact information is on this page) about registering for the retreat. We hope you will be able to join us!
Hi, I was curious about the Upcoming retreat in Louisville, Ky. How much is the retreat and can I commute back and forth? Or are there retreat activities in the evening, also? I live in Louisville and I have a dog that I need to let out.
Lisa, Unfortunately, we had to postpone the Louisville area retreat because we didn’t have enough people signed up. I will post soon when the new dates will be. We do need people to stay on-site for the retreats rather than commute from home.
