Men's and Women's Groups
Each of the 13 Separation and Divorce Care sessions is independent so you can begin attending or bring a friend at any time. Many people choose to repeat the sessions as they hear new information each time they attend as their life situation continues to change. Many return in subsequent sessions to view any of the topics that they missed or in some helping capacity in order to giv e back the hope and healing they received to others.
Subjects covered in each 13-week Separation and Divorce Care program:
What’s Happening To Me?
At each session we meet to watch a video on a topic pertaining to healing the hurt of separation and divorce. After the video, small groups meet for discussion. These groups are divided into:
Men's - Six to eight men in small discussion groups
Women's - Six to eight women in small discussion groups
You can attend the same small group each week. If for some reason you would like to change groups, just let a leader know. We ask that everything shared in these groups remain confidential. Everyone needs a safe place to heal, let this be it! In your small group you will have the opportunity to share and interact regarding the information you just heard on the video. Most importantly, you’ll be encouraged and learn how to work through the pain so you can rebuild your life.
Those desiring to reconcile with their spouse or who are in the process of reconciliation will benefit greatly from the program.
Children’s Divorce Care (DC4K) is available during the same time you are in your class and offers age appropriate materials on the same topics. Click here for more information
Course Materials
Workbooks are available for purchase ($12.00). They follow the video tapes and give a weekly home study for each topic. If you choose not want to purchase the book, there are free handouts at the table each week.
There is no cost to attend the Separation and Divorce Care programs.
Other materials related to the Divorce Care program are available from the Divorce Care website.
We strongly feel that prayer is an essential part of healing. As such, we have volunteers that will pray for the specific prayer requests of participants of the programs.
Prayer request forms are given to you each week. There are people who will be praying for these requests. Your concerns and needs are important; it’s worthy of a prayer request!
Social activities are planned for participants outside of the Wednesday night sessions. These activities are announced in the sessions. Please join us for fun and fellowship.
The social events are open to people involved in the Separation and Divorce Care programs. Most are no or low cost. These activities do not constitute a singles group or dating service, but focus on a fun time of fellowship for healing and building new friendships!
The curriculum for Separation and Divorce Care is Christian based and emphasizes Christian concepts as presented in the Bible. It is not necessary to share those beliefs to benefit from attending.
