If you're struggling with separation or divorce, or supporting someone who is, this conversation will remind you that you're not alone and God’s love remains constant. Lee McGrath talks about the Journey of Hope program, a nine-week, diocesan-endorsed divorce recovery initiative for separated and divorced Catholics. Lee shares her personal experience with divorce and how the program helped address emotional, spiritual, and practical challenges by offering support, community, and guidance through topics like self-worth, forgiveness, and staying close to the Church. The sessions, open to both men and women and held Wednesdays from September 30th to November 18th at the Catholic Center, feature prayer, videos, group sharing, and practical Catholic resources. Financial assistance is available for the $50 fee, ensuring everyone in need is welcome. For more information or to register, visit cdlex.org/joh.
