Find help and healing for the hurt of separation and divorce
DivorceCare is a friendly, caring group of people who will walk alongside you through one of life's most difficult experiences. Don't go through separation or divorce alone.
DivorceCare seminars and support groups are led by people who understand what you are going through and want to help. You'll gain access to valuable DivorceCare resources to help you deal with the pain of the past and look forward to rebuilding your life.
DivorceCare groups meet weekly to help you face these challenges and move toward rebuilding your life. Each DivorceCare session has two distinct elements:
A Seminar with Experts
During the first 30-40 minutes of the meeting, each DivorceCare group watches a video seminar featuring top experts ondivorce and recovery subjects. These videos are produced in an interesting-to-watch television magazine format featuring expert interviews, real-life case studies and on-location video.
A Support Group with Focus
After viewing the video, DivorceCare group participants spend time as a support group, discussing what was presented in that week's video seminar and what is going on in the lives of group members.
"For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh. So they are no longer two, but one." Mark 10: v 7-8
The purpose of the Anointed Marriage Course is to allow married couples to gain an understanding of God's heart and purpose for our marriages: that our marriages would be a reflection of the divine unity of the Godhead and the eternal marriage of Jesus to His bride - the Church.
The Anointed Marriage Course is a course for married couples presented in video format by Pastor Drummond and Lindah Robinson of the Harvest Christian Church, Port Elizabeth. The course is held over six weeks, requiring attendance in a private home at six evening sessions, a Saturday morning and a Sunday morning. There are also two follow-up sessions dealing in a summary and discussion of communication in marriage and other practical aspects of married life. The course is structured in such a way that confidentiality is maintained between marriage partners, where issues are discussed in a "knee-to-knee" time between each couple at the end of each evening.
Topics covered include:
God's heart for marriage,
Keys to intimacy,
Roles of the husband and wife,
God's order and government in the family,
Prayer,
Covenant,
Mercy,
Practical ways to communicate love that will enhance harmony and intimacy and refill those "emotional tanks" so that you can live life to the full.
The highlight is the Covenant Renewal Ceremony on the Sunday.
"The rededication of our marriage together with the commitment to place our family under God's authority was an extremely significant day in our lives."
"The 'knee-to-knee' time was a great breakthrough in our communication."
"It has strengthened our marriage tremendously!"
"It has changed my life and given me vital lessons to remember when the going gets tough."
"Back to basics! First love Jesus and allow Him to reign over your life... Serve the Jesus in your spouse"
In addition, an Engaged Couples course is run to lead couples who are engaged to be married in the direction of God's will for their marriages to be. This foundational course will give young couples an incredible advantage and "kick-start" to their married lives as they understand the principles of God's heart for their marriages.
We have recently started the "Laugh your way to a Better Marriage" course by Mark Gungor. This course is presented at the church in a DVD format, and runs over three evenings, once a week. The course is hilarious and has been very well received. Dates for this course will be published periodically.

The Ancient Paths Seminars are based on Jeremiah 16v6 " Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls." Some years ago, Craig Hill, the presenter, began to explore what are the ancient paths that God has laid down before time that were meant for the blessing of families. Out of his studies in this regard, the Ancient Paths Seminars were developed. The courses give insights into what those paths are and how to find 'peace for your souls' as the Holy Spirit leads and reveals deeply held hurts.
• God has given Craig unique insight into marriage, family and interpersonal relationships, resulting in his ability to identify for many people, root causes of relational conflict, compulsive habits, low self-esteem, work-&-alcoholism and undesirable life patterns which are repeated from one generation to the next.
• By interweaving personal stories with biblical truth, God has anointed Craig to pierce through the veil of the mind to the depths of the heart resulting in real life change for many.
What?
An intensive time of teaching from God's Word followed by sharing, prayer and ministry in small groups
As teaching topics are brought up, the small groups, led by trained facilitators, give opportunity for ministry in that specific area of the individual's life, marriage, or family.
Who should come?
Anyone desirous of lasting change in their life, marriage, or family. Many times we see unpleasant or unhealthy patterns in our lives, but don't know why they are there and / or can't seem to change. This ministry is designed to identify root causes and bring lasting change to these areas.
This seminar is different from other Christian finance seminars. The teaching does not feature merely "practical" information on finances, but follows Craig Hill's anointed understanding of God's Word in teaching finances from a Biblical and heart perspective (Matt. 6:21). The teaching and personal ministry opportunities will reveal root causes why you may not be prospering financially as you should. If your heart's desire is to be able to have an abundance to pour into God's Kingdom here on earth, this seminar experience is for you!
