Divorce Recovery, a branch of the Family Enrichment Ministry, began in the Fall of 2002.  Divorce Recovery is a 10-week course offering spiritual insight into the rebuilding process experienced by those who are newly divorced.  The ministry, which uses a self-help support group format, is facilitated by trained lay counselors.  Materials used in the course are published by Lifeway Ministries.

The purpose of the group is to assist those who have experienced divorce reconnect to the church as a single; grieve losses, such as "being a couple"; and handle difficulties, such as single parenting.  Another goal of the group is to help participants develop healthy relationships and circles of support and encouragement.

Divorce Recovery seeks to provide a place where the recently divorced can stay connected to the church . . . because the church, with its foundation in Jesus Christ, is the healing place for Christians who have experienced a divorce.

A Time for Healing workbooks are used throughout the course.  Topics covered include grief, finding forgiveness, accepting resurrection as a single, and reconnecting to the church and ministry.  Groups meet on Wednesday nights during regular service times.  The group is closed to new members once the seminars have started to ensure group confidentiality.  Interviews are conducted at the beginning of the semester to ensure participant appropriateness and that avenues toward reconciliation have been considered.  Group size is limited to eight participants with two facilitators per group.  Lay counselors are trained using Wise Counsel course materials.
