Lifetree Cafe: "When Love Hurts: Ending the Cycle of Domestic Violence"

The program, titled “When Love Hurts: Ending the Cycle of Domestic Violence,” features a filmed interview with a woman who escaped a relationship in which she faced emotional, physical, and sexual abuse.

“It started out as mental and verbal abuse,” the woman says. “He would tell me that no one would ever love me. It completely destroyed my self-image.”

During the program, Lifetree Café participants will also see a screening of the short film Last Stop.

Admission to the 60-minute event is free. Lifetree Café is located 611 Clark Ave.

Lifetree Café is a place where people gather for conversation about life and faith in a casual, comfortable setting. Questions about Lifetree may be directed to Scott Walker at lifetreecafe@fccames.org.
