DC4KIDS

Divorce Care 4 Kids is a special group designed to help children ages  5-12 heal from the hurt caused by the separation or divorce of their parents. This is a support group that fosters friendships between the kids and loving support from caring leaders.

Most of all, the children will learn how God can strengthen them and give them hope. DC4KIDS is a 13-week group that combines games, crafts, activities, music and DVD dramas that create an open and fun atmosphere of encouragement and acceptance.

Themes are age-appropriate to the issues that all members of the family face in this time of crises. This program is Biblically- based and non-denominational.

Parents are encouraged to attend the adult Divorce Care program that parallels the same themes that are presented in the DC4K program. This will begin a process of healing together as a family and will also provide a forum for meaningful discussions between parents and their children.

  • “What’s Happening to my Family?”
  • “God Loves Children in all Kinds of Families”
