Abortion is one of the most traumatic experiences a person can have.  Both before and after abortion, feelings of fear, anxiety, guilt, panic and pressure are common--not only for the woman who undergoes the abortion, but also for the father of the unborn child, the grandparents, close friends, and even medical personnel. For Catholics, the pain of abortion is intensified by a sense of alienation from God and the Church.

If you are in this position, we want you to know that your Church understands and cares. We are a loving and forgiving Church, reaching out to you in compassion and concern.  Above all, we want to help you through the healing process.  The Archdiocese of Baltimore invites you to participate in Project Rachel, where specially trained priests and mental health professionals are waiting to help you.

Project Rachel is a sensitive, private, and confidential experience.  Your meeting with a priest will focus on inner healing, spiritual direction, and preparation for the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Also available to you as a part of Project Rachel is counseling with specially trained mental health professionals.  Such counseling, before and/or after the Sacrament of Reconciliation, can help you sort through feelings and deal with unresolved conflicts. 

Project Rachel is a means for you to receive the healing grace of God, and the caring and support you need to move toward reconciliation with yourself, your unborn child, your family, your Church, and God.
