Partners in Process
Are you suffering from the effects of a loved-ones moral integrity issues or an affair? Prodigals International offers Partners in Process, a support group for women who are affected by their husband's or significant other's moral integrity. During the group, women learn that they did not cause their husband's behavior but rather learn that there is hope and healing. This material is biblically based and the trained leader knows your pain. Come to this safe place and gain tools while being encouraged by other women who are going through similar struggles. Confidentiality is paramount.

Weekly meetings are here at Alderwood Community Church. Contact Karen at 425.681.4008 for more information. Prodigals International
