Divorce Care For Kids (DC4K) -CALL THE OFFICE TO INQUIRE ABOUT NEXT SCHEDULED CLASSES. 419-882-2077
Divorce Care for Kids – DC4K – is a Christ-based 13 week program designed to help children ages 5-12 to process their feelings about their parents’ separation or divorce. We use games, arts and crafts, movies, stories and snacks to provide a fun environment while talking about issues such as communicating, forgiving, handling anger and disappointment in a positive way.
If you know of a family who is going through a separation or divorce, please make them aware of our program. The kids who have attended previous sessions have said it makes a difference for them! Members and nonmembers of our congregation are welcome.
To register you can call the church office at 419-882-2077.
We also are looking for leaders to help us with this program. No experience is necessary, just a passion for children! If you are interested, please call Donna Mens at 419-882-4960
