Christian Devotions SPEAK UP!

Founder of Ramah International

Sydna Masse

6:00 p.m. EST

Join us this week on Christian Devotions SPEAK UP! as Scott chats about choosing life in Christ as well as post-abortion healing with Sydna Masse of Ramah International.

Ramah International, Inc. was founded by Sydna A. Masse, a post-abortive woman who experienced God’s healing touch eleven years after her abortion through a crisis pregnancy center’s ministry program. Upon hearing a recent statistic from the research arm of Planned Parenthood, the largest abortion provider in the world that “… 43% of women will experience abortion at least once by the age of 45 years,” she began efforts to minister directly to these hearts.

Previous to her work through Ramah, Sydna served Dr. James C. Dobson as the Manager of Focus on the Family’s Crisis Pregnancy Ministry. Through her seven years directing that ministry, she saw first-hand the limited resources available to mothers, fathers, grandparents, and siblings touched by an abortion decision. Her first effort to reach these hearts is available through her book — Her Choice to Heal: Finding Spiritual and Emotional Peace After Abortion, which is currently available from the resources area of this website and in most Christian bookstores.

If you have suffered from a past abortion decision, or know someone dealing with this pain, help is available. Contact Ramah International for more information at 479-445-6070.
