DIVORCE MINISTRIES
We would like to add more listings. Please write to us at: ChristUnite@gmail.com to add more listings.
We strongly recommend that both spouses take an honest look at their situation before going through with the divorce. Every avenue, ministry, and possiblity should be tried for reasonable amounts of time before giving up on your marriage. We pray that each party makes a good faith effort to avoid the divorce, since we believe God intends for marriages to remain intact. We do understand, however, that in some cases a divorce is simply inevitable: Some spouses are simply not willing to stay in the marital covenant they vowed to God, or some spouses find themselves in a very dangerous situation. If you find yourself in no-win situations like those, we pray the following listing of ministries will help you overcome your crisis. Your Father is with you, hold tight to His hand.
God Bless.

Frank & Roberta Hilton
Meets weekly on Friday nights throughout most of the year.
It is open to anyone who is separated or divorced, and who desires to receive the support of others going through a similar situation.
We begin at approximately 7PM and try to be finished by 9:30PM each evening. Our group facilitators have experienced the pain of divorce themselves, and hope that they can offer you assistance through your own personal trial.
Post Script:
If you have already been through the divorce and realized that you yourself didn't really try to save your marriage, always remember that our Father does forgive our wrongs. True repentence goes a long way, and that is what Jesus Christ died for.
God Bless, He is merciful.
