The support groups use the Divorced. Catholic. Now What? book (and other books). DCNW is based on years of research and experience, the book answers the most challenging questions Catholics face when experiencing divorce. Why does God allow divorce?
How can I best help my children deal with divorce?
How can my Catholic faith help me recover from my divorce?
Any divorced Catholic who lives in the Diocese of Madison can attend. The groups are "open" which means you can join anytime. Invite a friend too! Light refreshments will be served, and the book will be available for purchase at the group.

Patrick Madrid endorses "Divorced. Catholic. Now What?" book
-
I recommend so highly that you read and assimilate the excellent and insightful information contained in [Divorced. Catholic. Now What?]. It will present you with much clear, accurate information and advice for dealing well with your divorce (or the divorce of someone close to you). It will approach you with compassion and understanding, and it will provide you with practical, effective tools for healing. Perhaps most importantly, this book will offer you genuine and consoling reasons for hope.—Patrick Madrid

- The Gift of Self
- The Gift of Self Program is a personal or small group program that reflects deeply on the mission and sacramentality of marriage and how one who is divorced or separated continues to live that mission authentically. The program is a journey that guides the individual through the stages of rejections, sorrow, and forgiveness to a renewal of their marital "yes" to God.
