A Place I Didn’t Belong

A Healing-Support Group for Adoptive Moms of

Children with Challenges

The next session of A Place I Didn’t Belong  support group will meet on Thursday nights for eight weeks January 19 through March 8, 2012, from 6:30 to 8:30 pm at the Hope’s Promise Castle Rock office, 309 Jerry Street, Suite 202 .

A Place I Didn’t Belong validates the sometimes devastating experiences of adoptive parenthood while offering hope, practical coping strategies and spiritual renewal for the journey ahead. The trajectory of unmet expectations, our children’s compromised beginnings and the wounds we carry into our adoptions conspire to take us to a place we didn’t belong. A compassionate look at the causes and behaviors of children with challenges moves us from victim to empowered advocate and prepares our heart for the Great Exchange. Insights on spiritual renewal, offered as a cool cup of water from one travel weary soldier to another, help us reclaim hope for our adoption journey. This is not a how-to or a ten-easy-steps-to successful parenting program. It’s about real life, real women and real struggles. It’s about relationships and community. It’s about reclaiming ourselves as women when adoption dreams shatter. It’s about a journey that begins in our mother’s heart, and delivers us to the place we do belong…right into our Father’s arms.
