Divorce support group begins at CCE

EASTFORD — The Congregational Church of Eastford (CCE) has started a DivorceCare Support Group. Divorce or separation is one of the most painful experiences you may face. So many emotions and challenges are tied up in the process. You don’t have to go through it alone.

DivorceCare offers support, answers, and practical tools to help you manage the many stresses of separation and divorce and lead you on the road to healing. The topics addressed in DivorceCare are dealing with emotional healing; deep hurt, anger, grief and depression; loneliness, fears and anxiety; overcoming relationship struggles; family and friends after divorce; conflict, forgiveness, and interacting with your ex; handling practical challenges; single living; financial and legal issues; and moving forward.

The 13-week support group helps you heal through a video seminar, a focused support group, and use of a participant guide. There are important topics brought up each week in the guide that include exercises and articles for recovery and person growth as well as parenting tips. You will share this journey with others who have been or are going through divorce/separation.

DivorceCare began on Sunday, March 16, but you can join anytime! It will be held for 13 consecutive weeks from 5:30-7 p.m. at the Congregation Church of Eastford office, located at 4 County Rd., Eastford, CT (next to the Eastford Post Office). There will not be a meeting on Easter Sunday, April 20. The church’s website is: www.cceastford.org.
