Who We Are

Surrendering The Secret Virginia is a Christ-centered ministry dedicated to bringing hope and healing to women and men impacted by a past abortion. We believe that every heart carries a story that, when surrendered to Jesus Christ, can become a powerful testimony of His grace and redemption.

Our mission is to provide a safe, confidential, and compassionate environment where healing and restoration are possible through biblical truth and the transforming love of Christ. Whether your abortion was recent or many years ago, you don't have to carry the burden alone.

We are passionate about raising awareness that post-abortion healing is available because far too many women and men silently carry the weight of a past abortion, believing they are alone or beyond God's forgiveness. Our prayer is that every person who connects with this ministry will experience God's love, embrace His grace, and discover the lasting freedom found in surrendering their secret.

A Safe Community

Confidentiality

Your privacy is our utmost priority. Every conversation and detail shared within our groups remains strictly confidential, creating a sacred space where you can share your heart without fear.

Grace-Based

We walk a path of Christ-centered healing, free from judgment. Our community is built on the foundation of grace, offering a soft place to land as you navigate your journey toward peace and restoration.

Our Heart & Leadership

Trained with Love. Dedicated to guiding you through a Christ-centered journey of restorative healing and hope.

Because I have experienced God's grace and healing in my own journey, I am passionate about walking alongside others as they discover the same hope, freedom, and redemption.

I believed I could never be forgiven by GOD for aborting my child. But there is no sin too great for our GOD to forgive.

From secrecy to surrender, from shame to grace, and from brokenness to redemption, my story is still being written.
So is yours.

John Karasch

Men's Facilitator

My heart is to come alongside post-abortive men as they unpack the weight of a past abortion, dig deep, embrace the journey—even when it gets messy—and experience the healing, freedom, and redemption found in Jesus Christ.
