RC —
I am the director of a post-abortion
ministry, so I can assure you that
every bishop in the United States
has given faculties for that absolution
to the priests in his diocese. If
there is an exception I don't know
about. Don't worry, the priest
will handle everything well.
Please tell your friend to contact her
local Project Rachel in order
to find a priest that is trained
and experienced in helping people
who suffer from the aftermath
of abortion.
Eric is correct about the excommunication
but, at one time, it was also the case
that priests were not competent to
absolve from abortion.
In either case, local priests may
both:
- lift excommunication and
- absolve
her of this sin.
