At New Life we are dedicated toward building strong marriages and strong families. At the same time, we are dedicated to real people and their real-life situations. Divorce is real in our world. That's the reason for Divorce Care. Divorce Care features videotaped seminar sessions with nationally recognized experts on divorce and recovery topics.
At Divorce Care, you will become part of a group of people who are also experiencing separation and divorce. By interacting with these people, you will learn that you are not alone. Guided by people who understand your pain, you will learn how to deal with the pain of the past and look forward to rebuilding your life.
Divorce Care is thirteen weeks, twice a year.
The next session begins Thursday, September 11th at 7 PM.
Leaders: Tom Peters or Sandy Farina at far60451@hotmail.com
