Peace Notes Fall 2018-Word of Peace Lutheran Church

Spiritual Care
Divorce Care Support Group
Mondays at 6:30 PM beginning September 17
Separation and divorce can be painful and stressful, but you don’t
have to go through it alone. A DivorceCare support group meets
each week for 13 weeks to help you face this challenge and move
toward rebuilding your life.
The group is facilitated by people from Word of Peace who understand
what you are going through and want to help. The group
will watch a video featuring top experts on divorce and recovery
subjects, then talk about that week’s topic and what is going on in
each other’s lives.
DivorceCare is free and open to all to come when they are able. If
you or someone you know is going through a difficult time, please
come. For more information, contact one of the DivorceCare facilitators:
