Am I ready to begin dating
again? How can I make sure a new relationship will work out? If I
don't remarry, how can I deal with the loss of intimacy? These
questions will be answered when the DivorceCare support group meets
from 7 to 9 p.m. Monday at Jefferson Street Christian Church, 1700
N. Jefferson St.
