LEWISTON — Lifetree Café will explore practical ways to unite a divided country at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, June 2, at South Lewiston Baptist Church, 1919 Lisbon Road.

The program, “Can This Union Be Saved: A Marriage Counselor’s Advice for Our Divided Country,” features a filmed interview with marriage counselor Denny Howard, who shares how the strategies employed to help estranged couples may work with those who have divergent political views.

“I think what is really dividing our country, similar to in a marriage relationship, is people are really nearsighted in the way they see things. We aren’t looking for common ground or how we can connect,” he says.

During the program, participants will have the opportunity to share their political views while establishing common ground with people holding opposing views.

Admission to the 60-minute event is free.

Lifetree Café is a place where people gather for conversation about life and faith in a casual, comfortable setting.
