THRONE OF GRACE
Throne of Grace is a confidential 12-week ministry to assist women in their post abortive trauma, that will
enable them to seek healing and forgiveness in Christ. The complex issues surrounding the choice to terminate a
crisis pregnancy makes every woman's journey individual. Post abortion stress may affect the spiritual and
mental health of women desperately trying to cope in a society and culture that leave no area for her to mourn
her loss. When a woman is restored to the right relationship with God, she is open to a brighter future,
benefiting His kingdom.
