Dear Friend,


The Lord has created an incredible opportunity for us to minister to post abortive women in Romania.  The ‘taking of life from the womb’ is not just a problem in America, but world-wide.

So, why Romania? 

The history of abortion in Romania is as complicated as their history of governing. The Guttmacher Institute reports, “the highest abortion rate ever documented in official statistics is recorded in Romania in 1965.”*  Between the years 1957 – 1966, it is documented that 80% of pregnancies ended in abortion.  One Romanian Physician said this, “I have a patient who has had 22 abortions; one of my colleagues has one who has had 37. But most of them have had so many that they don’t remember the exact number.”  Current data from the World Health Organization show that the 2018 abortion rates in Romania are decreasing, in comparison to previous decades, yet they continue to have one of the highest abortion rates in Europe.

In September 2017, I had the privilege to visit Timisoara, Romania. It was my first trip to Eastern Europe, and I was quite surprised and wide-eyed to see many remains of the Communist Regime that occupied Romania from 1947 – 1989. But the people of Timisoara were incredibly welcoming, servant-hearted, and curious about us. Oftentimes they knew I was an American before I even said a word. When I inquired about their insight, they explained to me that it was because I carry a water bottle. 

During this weeklong visit, we met with several groups of Christian women who grieve over the long history of their country’s abortion culture. We learned from them that in our current day, they use abortion as a form of birth control because it’s paid for by the Government. They added that Romanians are not opposed to other forms of contraceptives, but the cost of the contraceptives come from their own pockets so abortion is cheaper. Other women that we spoke with had the courage to share, with much grief, that they have had numerous abortions. Imagine the grief of women who have had 14, 15, & 17 abortions. Their grief gave us a glimpse of their broken hearts, not hardened hearts.

Our Gospel-centered, grace driven ministry is devoted to offering the hope and healing in Jesus Christ, through God’s Word, to those who have been broken by sin, such as these post abortive women in Romania.

Because of the generosity of Grace Fellowship Church in Northern KY, Healing Hearts’ Binding Up the Brokenhearted Study has already been translated into Romanian, and 900 bible studies have been printed and are waiting, ready to use to minister to post abortive women. Grace Fellowship Church also provided us contacts through their missionaries in Timisoara and as a result five Romanian women, leaders in their churches, have agreed to participate in the BUP study, via Zoom video conferencing. (We started our weekly study meetings on February 10th.)

Will you please join us in prayer, specifically for these five women?


PRAY WITH US:
  • that the Armor of God be securely fitted on these 5 women, and the leaders, as they proceed through the study.  There is evidence that the enemy wants no part of this.
  • that any language barrier, cultural differences, and potential technology issues are overcome by the Holy Spirit.
  • that the Lord will give each of these women the desire and the clear calling to serve the Romanian post abortive community through Healing Hearts Ministry.
  • The Word calls us to grieve with those who grieve, please join our Romanian brothers and sisters in their grief.
  • Praise God for creating this opportunity and providing the resources!


We can never say “thank you” enough for the critical role you play in prayer support for our ministry. You are every bit a part of this front-line, gospel work here in the US and abroad!

Thank you for also giving sacrificially to this ministry. There is no gift too small that God cannot use. Your monthly commitments of $25, $50 or more are what make this ministry possible, allowing us the freedom to go when God opens a door – just like this one He’s opened in Romania.

God bless you always!

In His Service,

Cathy Mulvey
Regional Director (Mid-North & Great Lakes regions)
