According to a press release, a divorce, separation or breakup can be one of life’s most painful experiences.

In order to meet the needs of men and women who are experiencing this pain, the United Methodist Church of Albert Lea is sponsoring DivorceCare, a faith-based divorce recovery seminar and support group. The 13-week program will take place at 6 p.m. on Mondays beginning on Sept. 12 at the church.

DivorceCare includes sessions on loneliness, anger, financial management, helping children adjust, forgiveness and more. Participants are welcome to share their stories and exchange strategies for coping with similar issues. All discussions are in confidence.

Everyone is welcome. There is no charge for attendance, but a workbook will be available for $15. To register, or to receive more information, contact the church office at 507-373-8233.
