Welcome to Silent No More Awareness in San Diego. My name is Leslie and I am your San Diego Regional Coordinator. I invite you to join with us to reach out to those in San Diego who are heartbroken by the tragedy of abortion.
I am a post abortive woman who had an abortion at the age of 22 - who at the time was Pro-Choice. I had no idea the choice I made 30 years ago would have such a disastrous effect on my life. I spent years in denial trying to forget my abortion. My abortion became my big SECRET.
It was not until I attended a Rachel's Hope retreat for after abortion healing in San Diego that I experienced Gods love and mercy. At this retreat, I was finally able to give up my deep-bedded shame and guilt and come out of denial. I was finally able to share my secret with other women who had similar stories as mine. I was able to un-wrap all the layers of guilt, shame and self-hate that I carried deep within me. I received a deep healing that weekend and received a thirst to speak out against the lies of abortion.
It is my prayer that you will find comfort in knowing that you are not alone and, that in breaking our silence, we can change the future of generations to come by exposing the lies of abortion and the devastation that it caused in our lives.
Silent No More San Diego has the following goals:
• Seek to raise public awareness about the emotional, physical and spiritual consequences of abortion through education, testimonies, and public witness.
• Reach out and provide information to those seeking help and healing after an abortion…Help is available from post-abortion counseling and after-care programs throughout our state!
• Invite post-abortive women and men to share personal testimonies about the harm and negative consequences abortion have caused them, their families and their relationships. Most importantly to share healing and hope to those who have experienced abortion to help others avoid the pain and suffering of abortion.
• Hold gathering(s) in San Diego.
It is our sincere desire to help those still suffering from the consequences of abortion and to let them know that they are not alone. No longer does anyone need to suffer alone in silence and shame.
If you are suffering from the negative consequences of abortion, please contact me so I can find you an after-abortion recovery program.
If you have already attended an after-care program and are ready to join us by speaking the truth about abortion, we would love for you to join us at our gatherings.
Please join us in being SILENT NO MORE I look forward to hearing from you so we can share our stories and see where God is leading you in the Silent No More Awareness Campaign.
