Topeka for people whose lives have been affected by abortion. Johnson
County District Attorney Phill Kline spoke at the opening ceremony
today.

Kay Lyn Carlson is
the director of the Abortion Recovery Center. Today she shared her
testimony with supporters of the center. "It’s an important resource
because there are millions out there who have suffered the same way I
have suffered from the detrimental effects of abortion, and we need
this service to help with healing."

The
ARC is a resource for wome who are dealing with psychological, social
or spiritual issues as a result of an abortion. Phill Kline said,
"there’s silent suffering right now, of those who are post-abortion and
they need to learn the grace and forgiveness of God and of those in our
community."

It’s
a place to share and a place to heal. Carlson said, "sometimes if
you’ve had an abortion, the hardest person to forgive is yourself, and
I’ve experienced that, and so many other people have as well. I just
would like to say that you’re not alone and that you really can learn
to forgive yourself."

The
center offers a safe, non-judgmental, confidential environment where
women can participate in professional counseling, bible studies,
support groups and more.
