Divorce Care for Kids



This is the second year I've been blessed to facilitate the DC4K program at the church of Christ in Champions. It is a wonderful, fun program to help children heal and work through the divorce of their parents. I am grateful that I can use my experience as a "child of divorce" for God's glory and to help the precious children I work with to learn skills that will help them in their new family situations and throughout their lives, as well as to realize the great things God can do in their lives. Some of the things we work on are learning positive, healthy ways to deal with anger, sadness and loneliness. We also learn about developing new relationships, money smarts, positive and powerful communication skills, forgiveness and more. We use Music and movement, Bible stories, DVD dramas, crafts, games, object lessons, journaling, workbooks and snacks to teach and reinforce the concepts.

If you have or know a family dealing with divorce, I encourage you to find a Divorce care and Divorce Care for Kids group in your area. There is a link at the bottom of this page to the website.
