Girls Recovering As Christ Empowers
But you, God, see the trouble of the afflicted; you consider their grief and take it in hand. The victims commit themselves to you; you are the helper of the fatherless. You, LORD, hear the desire of the afflicted; you encourage them, and you listen to their cry, defending the fatherless and the oppressed, so that mere earthly mortals will never again strike terror. – Psalm 10:14, 17-18 NIV

“I was never sexually abused, but I read the GRACE curriculum to help me know how to help my friends who have been. The book was very insightful and helped me understand what survivors are going through.”

“God used the GRACE curriculum to impact my life in such a powerful way! For many years, I didn’t realize how the effects of sexual abuse shaped my life. I’d finally reached a point of desperation for healing and by God’s Grace, he led me to GRACE Group with the GRACE Curriculum.”
