Divorced and Separated Koinonia
A Weekend Retreat Experience Specifically for Separated and Divorced Catholics
Villa Maria Catholic LIfe Center
1903 E. Lake Shore Dr., Springfield, IL 62712
5:00
P.M., Friday, October 4 – Sunday, October 6, 2013
Koinonia is a Greek word that means community.  So come and share a weekend in Christian community, reflecting on God's presence in our lives!  A DASK Retreat Weekend is a spiritually healing weekend specifically designed to help heal the hurts of divorce for divorced and separated men and women.  The retreat consists of talks, discussions and liturgical celebrations, as well as time for fun and relaxation.  The weekend is not a seminar, not a social gathering, nor is it counseling.  It is time to retreat, to reflect, and to heal.
The retreat is sponsored by the Office for Marriage and Family Life of the Diocese of Springfield in Illinois, approved by the Office of Apostolic Services of the Archdiocese of St. Louis, and presented by the St. Louis/Belleville DASK Team — a combination of groups from CDM Regions 7 and 9.  The cost of the weekend is $110, which includes meals and lodging, double occupancy.  Single rooms may be available for an additional charge.  A $50 deposit and registration is required.  Download the brochure for more details, a registration form, and contact information.

Beginning Experience — Omaha
A Weekend Away for a Lifetime of Change
Archdiocesan Retreat & Conference Center
3330 N 60 Street, Omaha, NE
Friday, August 9 – Sunday, August 11, 2013
Friday, November 8 – Sunday, November 10, 2013
Beginning Experience provides a safe space, the support and the tools to heal, and grow, and to turn one's greatest devastation into opportunity.  It is a place to find understanding and compassion from trained, caring people who can truly share the long walk back to wholeness.  It is not a sensitivity group or a professional counseling session.  It is not intended to provide therapy or to replace the need for it.  It is non-confrontational and invitational.

Remarriage Preparation
Learning from the Past — Building for the Future
Cardinal Rigali Center
20 Archbishop May Dr., St. Louis, MO 63119
Friday, September 6 – Saturday, September 7, 2013
The Archdiocese of St. Louis offers marriage preparation specifically designed for engaged couples for those who have experienced divorce/annulment or the death of spouse.  Though some may question the need for a preparation program, statistics indicate that the divorce rate for "second marriage" is higher than for first marriages.  Whether one or both of you were previously married, there are issues of special concern for couples planning a "new" marriage and the workshop focuses on these areas.
Fore more information including a link to the workshop registration form, go to the Archdiocese of St. Louis Office of Laity and Family Life's Remarriage web page.
