Support Groups and Resources

Surviving Divorce was created to bring hope and healing to those who have experienced the pain and loneliness of a broken marriage. It 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 hope, and begin authentic healing. Developed and hosted by Rose Sweet, Surviving Divorce features experts Dr. Ray Guarendi, Ph.D., Fr. Donald Calloway, M.I.C., Fr. Steve Porter, S.T.L., Fr. Mitch Pacwa, S.J., and Christopher West. It also includes personal
testimonies of Catholic men and women who have experienced the
breakdown of their families. They courageously share their stories
with heart, humor, and wisdom. As they witness to their pain and
the healing power of Christ in their lives, participants will laugh,
cry, and identify with their journeys from heartache to healing.

Spiritual Direction within the Christian tradition is the act/practice of one Christian helping another along in their spiritual journey by “sacred listening” that is, by listening with the heart to one person’s story and helping that person to reflect on how God is moving and acting in their life.

One-on-one, hour-long meetings are usually scheduled once a month with a nominal fee charged.  The spiritual director promises to ensure confidentiality of everything discussed.  For more information or for a list of available Spiritual Directors click HERE.

This support group is open to veteran's or family members of veteran's to provide support guided by the Holy Spirit through prayer, social services, and scripture study.  If you are being called by the Holy Spirit, please reach out or attend an upcoming meeting.  Meetings are held on the first Tuesday of each month in the Large Conference Room.
