Heart
Many people are weighed down by the burden of abortion. That kind of loss can touch every part of our life. At Heart, we know what that’s like. We also know there is hope. We’re here to foster hope for a renewed life, where we are at peace with God, others, and ourselves.
Watch Malinda’s Story
Heart graduates are a powerful example that, when caring communities come close to a hurting neighbor, Christ’s compassion can bring holistic help and healing to the broken.
Malinda was able to overcome cycles of sin, pain, and loss and find forgiveness and healing from her abortions.
Women are gathering all over the city to experience freedom from the burden of past abortion experiences.
Heart offers biblically-based support and recovery groups for men and women who’ve experienced an abortion. These groups offer confidential healing communities where one can ask hard questions and work through complicated emotions to reestablish peace with God, with oneself, and with others.
Heart groups are free to attend, typically last eight weeks, and host between 2-6 participants. If you are wondering if Heart is right for you, we invite you to have a conversation with us below.
“I am so thankful for the ministry of Heart that God used to change my life, and I am so thankful to all who minister God’s unconditional love to the hurting in our community.”
