As families divorce, each family member is impacted and goes through a number of different emotions and struggles. In addition to DivorceCare and DivorceCare for Kids, we also offer an option for 5th–12th grade students called DivorceCare for Teens. This care group will help your student work through the common questions, emotions, and thoughts that surround divorce, as well as how Christ cares for those who are hurting. They will have caring leaders who desire to create a safe and encouraging environment for all.
Your kids probably feel scared, sad, and confused after your divorce. They know you have been hurt deeply. As a result, they may hide their feelings because they are worried about your happiness or because they do not know how to express their feelings appropriately. DivorceCare for Kids (DC4K) helps them process those feelings and gives them tools to communicate better with you. For 13 weeks your child will become involved in a fun, caring group. The weekly session topics will help your children learn that God’s love strengthens them and helps them turn their sadness into hope and their anger into joy. Each session is filled with motivating and exciting activities. Games, crafts, role playing, discussion times, journaling, and activity books will help your child process the divorce and move forward in their lives. DC4K is designed for kids ages 5–12.
Ascend is a week-long program for students ages 5–18 who have experienced the divorce of their parents or the loss of a loved one, and for children ages 6–11 who have a sibling with disabilities. Students are in an age-appropriate group where they will have the opportunity to discuss the common experiences associated with divorce and grief, and learn what God says about these hardships. Students will learn healthy coping methods and also just have good fun. The program runs from 10:00am–2:00pm daily for one week.
DivorceCare is a support group that meets weekly. There are three key parts to the DivorceCare weekly experience: video seminars, group discussions, and a personal workbook. Each video seminar features dynamic teaching from top divorce recovery experts. After the video/teaching time, your small group will discuss the video content and issues faced by group members. Each small group is led by people who have been divorced and can relate to much of the pain, emotions, and challenges you are experiencing. Your personal workbook will help reinforce each topic throughout the rest of the week. For more information about DivorceCare, check out their website here.
Each time that DivorceCare meets, we want our participants to experience a warm and inviting environment that eliminates participants' anxiety about the evening. To do this, we offer childcare and a welcoming environment, which require plenty of volunteers. The class meets from 6:30–8:30pm on Tuesday nights.
