New Horizons - A Day of Healing: Beyond Divorce
Another date is in the works for 2024! Be on the lookout for more information as it becomes available.
The New Horizons retreat is an opportunity for reflection, personal work, and celebration to help people embark on a new phase of life after divorce. This retreat is for men and women who are divorced or separated with no chance of reconciliation. Those divorced, recently or for years, will find the day rewarding. While the day is a ministry of the Archdiocese of Milwaukee, members of all faiths are welcome.
