Are you searching for forgiveness and peace?
Whether it’s been one year or 40 years, you need time to grieve your loss and reflect on your feelings of sorrow and regret. Project Rachel is here to help you do that in a supportive and confidential environment. We are here to listen to you and help you through your pain.
Project Rachel Day Retreats offer:

- Referrals to priests or professional counselors
- Forgiveness, healing, and peace
As a program of Catholic Charities Pregnancy and Adoption Services, Project Rachel welcomes people of all faiths, and is not for women only.
