Ministry for Adult Children of Divorce

It is good that you are here. Dealing with our parents' divorce is not easy, but confronting this wound with faith can allow us to find great healing. We hope that you will become part of our supportive community and receive the many graces available through this ministry.  Welcome.

On-Going Support

Once or twice a year, we offer a free support group or book club to provide on-going help for adult children of divorce. We have offered support groups around the Mother's Day-Father's Day and Christmas seasons, and previous book clubs read through Between Two Worlds, by Elizabeth Marquardt, as well as Primal Loss: The Now-Adult Children of Divorce Speak, edited by Leila Miller. Stay tuned for more groups and clubs in the future.
