Our divorce care ministry is here for you as you navigate this difficult change and to help discover how your Catholic faith is fundamental to your healing and recovery. By walking with Christ, you will feel His comfort, peace, and reassurance that will lead you to an abundant life.
These groups are intended for those who are divorced or separated to provide support and healing during the struggles associated with the changes that occur in a manner that respects the personhood of each involved.
Healing from Divorce offers four separate peer based support groups:
1. Men's Divorce Recovery Peer-Based Support Group
2. Men's Divorce and Beyond Book Series
3. Women's Divorce Recovery Peer-Based Support Group
4. Women's Divorce and Beyond Book Series
Male groups and female groups are designed to create safe spaces to speak and listen freely. Divorce Recovery groups are rarely co-ed. This provides extra privacy and confidentiality and prevents an encounter with a former spouse.
If you would like to meet with someone more frequently or privately, please consider requesting a Stephen Minister.
