New Beginnings: Help For Those Going Through Divorce

WASHINGTON — New Beginnings of Northwest Connecticut, the single life ministry of First Congregational Church of Washington, is currently taking reservations for its next divorce support group, which begins Monday, October 2, and will meet for ten weeks. Programs are 7 to 9 pm each week.

The group is designed for people who are currently in the process of divorce. It is also intended for those who are beyond the initial crisis of divorce but may still be struggling with unresolved issues relative to the loss of their intimate relationship.

It is a closed group after the second week because of the type of personal sharing that takes place and the need for members to feel safe in their vulnerability so that healing may occur. Previous participants have been extremely enthusiastic about the positive impact of this program on their personal growth and well-being.

Each Level One support group is led by experienced lay facilitator(s). Pre-registration is required. For further information call the church office of First Congregational Church at 860/868-0569 or contact Al Trowbridge at 860/868-0230.
