Financial Peace University

You shouldn’t have to live paycheck to paycheck.

If you need help: planning a budget; strategies to do better planning for your paycheck and the month; debt and credit cards; which insurance should I have; college and retirement planning, continuing the FPU journey, we can help!

Saint Michael Parish offers Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University (FPU) periodically throughout the year based on interest. This class fee is $50 for materials and one year of web access to Ramsey Solutions for support. Scholarships are available for parishioners and childcare is available during class times. All are welcome! Info: fpu@saintmichaelparish.org

If you have attended and completed an FPU course, consider attending the FPU Alumni meetings. They are the 4th Saturday of the Month from 10am–noon. Current meetings are held via Zoom. To sign up for an invitation and link to these meetings, contact fpu@saintmichaelparish.org.
