Financial Peace University
Financial Peace is coming to Northwest in September! During this life-changing class you will learn how to get control of your money; stop struggling to make ends meet; tell your money what to do; and change your family’s future! What would your life look like if you had NO DEBT and were really IN CONTROL of your money? Most people struggle to make ends meet. They just have too much month left at the end of the money. If you have made mistakes and feel like your money vanishes each month, you are not alone. In fact, 70% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, regardless of income. Financial Peace University is designed to teach you and your family how to get out of debt, stay out of debt, and build wealth. You’ll meet with your class each week to watch the video lesson and participate in discussion and accountability groups that will change your whole attitude about money! An informational/orientation session will take place on Monday, September 13 at 6:30 p.m. The 13-session class begins on Monday, September 20.

Parents Morning Out Beginning in September!
The mission of our Parents’ Morning Out (PMO) program is to provide a safe, fun and nurturing Christian environment for children of the church and the community each week, while providing parents the opportunity to enjoy time for errands, appointments or simply time for themselves. The primary focus for the children involved in the program is socialization and nurturing. It is not a preschool, and does not focus on academics. PMO will be offered on Wednesday mornings from 9:30 am to 1:00 pm, beginning September 8th and continuing through May 25th. For more information, please contact Marie Culpert at .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) or the church office at 614-451-2825.
