Surviving Divorce: 12-Week Catholic Program for the Separated and Divorced – Dates in the Fall TBA

Testimonials: “I would definitely recommend the Surviving Divorce program. The videos and discussion topics were well thought out, but, being on a journey with others was equally beneficial because we were able to offer support to one another in a safe and prayerful environment.”

"This program greatly assisted my emotional healing in a safe and accepting environment by sharing with others who have been through the end of a marriage."

Are you or anyone in your family Separated or Divorced? The Archdiocese of Saint Boniface Ministry to the Separated and Divorced will be hosting a twelve-session Surviving Divorce program that will bring hope and healing to those who are experiencing the pain and loneliness of a broken marriage.  Surviving Divorce features twelve video presentations that cover topics such as shock and grief, anger and forgiveness, money issues, dealing with children and a former spouse, and annulment and remarriage. This program is for the newly separated and divorced and those still struggling with issues many years later. It will help them find answers to their questions, restore their hope, and begin authentic healing.

This program will run on weekday evenings from 7pm-9pm at the Saint Boniface Archdiocesan Centre. Dates in the Fall TBA . Registration is required.
