In response, a small group of women who have suffered the experience of abortion gather once a month to share, heal and grow.

The purpose of the group is not to provide professional counseling, but rather for these mothers to provide each other with understanding and comfort.

The first step on the healing journey is to acknowledge the hurt; the second step is to seek such support.

Tears Speak for mothers of aborted babies when there simply are no words to describe the loss and the sorrow. But Spirits Soar in a circle of support...when these same women can reach out, hold the hand of another and draw strength from the understanding; and then when that mother can extend her other hand to yet another woman, to offer the same support with compassion.

Sharing provides the hope and encouragement that is needed to allow the mothers of aborted children to understand and accept the greatest gift of all: God forgives.

"I know that seeing the notice of Tears Speak in a church bulletin was a gentle and loving gift from God. For years, I'd needed and wanted to heal from the trauma of my abortion, but needed a loving and most importantly trustworthy group of women who really knew what I felt. I never would have imagined that my life could truly begin anew after such pain, and with the help of Tears Speak, it has. I am so grateful for all the support and beginning of true joy in my life."

"Tears Speak has helped me through a journey of healing I was never able to accomplish on my own. With the support of others that have been through similar experiences, I have been encouraged to grieve for the loss of my child and to ask God's forgiveness for a selfish act I did so long ago. I would like to encourage other women that have had an abortion(s) and are feeling remorse, to please join us and begin your own journey to healing."
