There is freedom from the emotional wounds of your abortion.
Abortion is devastating and leaves a lasting impact on your heart, but it is not unforgivable.
Many believe that they are forgiven, but cannot forgive themselves.
Jesus has come to give you freedom from your abortion wounded heart.
We are here to help you experience that freedom.
Since 2008, we’ve led hundreds of retreats that helped women and men just like you experience healing and lasting freedom.
I knew God had forgiven me but didn’t realize the load I was carrying
Emily had an abortion at 19. Twenty years later, she had no clue the weight she was still carrying. After attending a Deeper Still retreat, she received a deeper healing she didn’t know she needed or was available to her. She’s now fully alive and her heart has been set free.
Your life could change in one weekend.
Getting away from the busyness of life is the best way to find hope and healing.
We do that through Deeper Still Retreats throughout the year all across the country.

Led by people who have been where you are

Men also carry the wounds of abortion.
You’ve always been told abortion is a women’s issue. Whether you had a choice or not, you are still a father and your heart matters. Freedom from the wounds of abortion is also for you.
Taking the first step is the hardest part.
If you reach out, we’ll take your hand, and walk right beside you through the entire weekend.
