Edwardsville YMCA, Metro Community Church partner to help some through divorce heartache

EDWARDSVILLE - Have you experienced the heartache of divorce?

The Edwardsville YMCA is partnering with Metro Community Church to help you through this difficult time. During each class there will be a group exercise featuring a video segment with an expert to help you navigate the difficult emotions that accompany divorce (i.e. anger, depression, loneliness, etc.).

The group will focus on topics that are essential to your recovery (i.e. financial survival, child care, forgiveness, new relationships, etc.). After the video you will join with others in a small group to discuss the video and share your own stories. You will also have a workbook for daily reading and journaling to do on your own.
