Dawn of Mercy offers emotional and spiritual healing to individuals harmed by sexual abuse or assault.

Our program offers a retreat in a safe environment for survivors of sexual assault to tell their story of trauma and to see the truth about their self-worth, dignity and goodness. The retreat addresses both emotional and spiritual healing using sound mental health practices. Along with the retreat is a trauma recovery support group (or healing group) for further understanding and healing of the total emotional and spiritual trauma caused by sexual assault. Together, the retreat and support group offer a great healing opportunity. Separate programs are offered for women and men in English and Spanish.

In under three years we have held 5 retreats and 10 Healing Groups with attendees not only from Texas but also 8 other states and even another country.  

Mission

"Dawn of Mercy" offers emotional and spiritual healing to women and men harmed by sexual assault. Through a weekend retreat and ongoing trauma recovery support groups, we help survivors see the truth about their self-worth, and their goodness in the eyes of God, in order to live a life of joy, peace and freedom.
