Recovery from Divorce and Broken Relationships
Your path to recovery from broken relationships and/or divorce is filled with decisions that will impact your future and that of your children. Our Heart Healers workshops can help you constructively face the challenge of making those decisions. We can help you realize that rather than being buffeted by life's many circumstances, you have the power through Jesus Christ to engage the future with confidence.
Remember, God always has something for you right where you are, even in the middle of the toughest time of your life. With all of the confusion, anger and hurt, He understands and will provide the way through it.
Meetings are held on Wednesdays at EFCC in the Education Center, Room 23/24, at 7 p.m. Workshops are offered through the year (see session options below for more details). See below for more information, or contact us at (760) 743-1410.

Heart Healers for Kids: A Time for Your Children
PLEASE NOTE: This class is currently not being offered at Emmanuel Faith for the time being. Please check back later to see if this class has been resumed.
Heart Healers for Kids is designed to help children grades 1 to 8 deal with the intense issues they encounter when their families break up. Children often carry their pain and loss well into adulthood even though they often appear to be adjusting well. In this class, your child will learn ways to express their feelings and learn to cope with the pressures that accompany broken families. Using Bible lessons and group discussion, your child will be helped to address topics such as anger, acceptance, and God’s purpose for their lives.
After dropping your children in class, parents are encouraged to meet in the Ministry Center Conference room to hear what their children are learning so that they can discuss and implement these lessons at home.
