DivorceCare - Surviving the Holidays
Facing a holiday after a separation or divorce can be more difficult than your friends and even family members may realize. You are most likely experiencing a jumble of emotions that you've yet to sort out.
The DivorceCare - Surviving the Holidays video, discussion group and study booklet will help you not only to survive the holidays, but to find strength, healing and tools to move forward in your daily walk through these painful emotions.
On the video, you will meet Christian experts and other people who have experienced separation, divorce or another life tragedy. These people share honestly about:
- Being prepared for surprising emotions that may hit over the holidays
- What to do about traditions and other coming changes
- How to survive potentially awkward moments at holiday events
- How to help your children have a good holiday experience
- Where to find comfort, strength and hope in a seemingly hopeless time
In your discussion group, you'll have the chance to talk with others in separation or divorce, discuss what you've learned on the video and ask questions about any concerns you have.
Your booklet will give you daily readings to help you further process your feelings and give you suggestions for coping with this difficult time of the year.
This is a single evening seminar. You do not need to be attending the regular DivorceCare support group to attend this event. You may have attended DivorceCare in the past and want to come just for this one evening. All are welcome to join us.
