Financial Peace University

Our next 13-week session starts August 21, 2008, on Thursday nights. Class times run from 6:30-8:00pm. The sessions are led by a member of our church that has gone through the FPU program. Your "FPU Facilitator" will guide you through the program during the 13-week session via workbook and DVD's featuring Dave Ramsey. If you would like to learn how to control your money, instead of your money controlling you, contact Reed Alberg at FPU@firstumcbs.org to let him know you are interested in the next session! Orientation/Free Preview Sessions will be held on Wednesday, August 13, 2008 at 7:00pm and on Sunday morning August 17, 2008 at noon. Contact Reed for more details.

Did you know there are over 800 scripture references to personal finance in the Bible?

Dave Ramsey was a young hotshot real estate professional in Nashville, TN, who hit bottom and lost it all in the 80's.
As he recovered and made his way back - in the middle of a recession - people started seeking him out and asking
him how he did it. "How'd you do it, Dave? How'd you keep your marriage together? How did you put your
financial house back together?"

Financial Peace University is the result of Dave's journey and the personal financial counseling practice that grew
out of that journey.

Over 100,000 families and individuals have attended FPU nationwide at their workplace, church, military base, local non-profit organization or community group. On average these families have paid off over $5,300 in debt and saved $2,700
during this 91-day program!

Are you in financial trouble? Do you have "too much month left at the end of the money?" Whether you just need a personal finance "check-up" or a complete "Total Money Makeover," Financial Peace University has something of value for YOU!

What is FPU?
