Rachel’s Vineyard retreats aim to offer solace, peace, and inner healing to any individual connected to an abortion, regardless of the role they played. They provide a safe place to grieve the loss and to understand how abortion has affected them, so they can grow beyond it. The weekend will include Scripture meditations, the opportunity for the sacrament of reconciliation, a memorial service, Mass, and sharing with others personally affected by abortion.

The next Rachel’s Vineyard retreat in Maine will be held on April 26-28 in the greater Bangor area, starting on Friday at 6 p.m. and concluding on Divine Mercy Sunday at 1:30 p.m.The registration deadline for the retreat is Friday, April 19 (preregistration required).
