Are you or someone you know an adult child of divorced parents? Divorce can cause numerous wounds to all involved. Sometimes others try minimize the damage caused by divorce by saying things like, “Children are resilient. They’ll be ok.” But the truth is, as I’ve learned from first-hand experience, is that divorce ALWAYS hurts. No one escapes unharmed.
In this episode, Anne DeSantis and I discuss the many shades of pain caused by divorce. Both Anne and I are adult children of divorced parents. I share some of the many ways divorce had affected me in my adult life and in my married life. Praise God that he sent me a man, my husband Peter, to help me heal from the many wounds with God’s help and much prayer. The funny thing is, I didn’t realize I needed healing until I reached my mid-thirties!
”The initial mission of the SAINT RAYMOND NONNATUS FOUNDATION is to reach out and accompany individuals, children and families impacted, affected, or wounded by divorce and help them sustain (or reconcile) their redemptive relationship with Jesus Christ and His Holy Church.” Anne, as the director of the Saint Raymond Nonnatus Foundation, is on a mission to help those affected by divorce find healing, peace, and spiritual growth.
