Text Box: The 7 Steps to Becoming Financially Free; A Catholic Guide to Managing Your Money

What’s the biggest problem most people have with their finances? Credit Card Bills? No Savings? Too much month left at the end of the money? The real problem isn’t so much the money (or lack of it) as it is our relationship with God and how we respond to His call for us to be Stewards of Providence. This includes trusting God to provide for our financial needs and doing our part to manage our financial needs.

The 7 Steps to Financial Freedom course has given us the tools to place God first as we manage our finances. With Gods priority placement our financial plan not only falls into place, it works! We are already realizing Gods abundant financial blessings in a few short months, and have begun to experience the contentment of living without financial stress and the riches of a more fruitful life".
	 - Mary Ellen and Mike E.

Join one of our small group studies for The 7 Steps to Becoming Financially Free; A Catholic Guide to Managing Your Money. The 8-week series is not only for people struggling with finances, but also for anyone who would like a deeper relationship with God and to learn how to become a better Steward of the gifts entrusted to us. An introduction and first meeting will begin September 8 at 6:30 pm at Sacred Heart. For more information or to register call the parish office, 451-1588.
