Vision Community Church offers financial class for teens
WARWICK Vision Community Church will be offering Dave Ramseys Generation Change, a study on how to handle money Gods way, beginning Sunday, March 18.
Ramsey is an author, talk show host and financial advisor who offers advice to teens and adults on how to best use their money through financial strategies and advice.
The study consists of videos, homework and information on how to go to go to college with less debt and how to make better financial decisions throughout their lives.
I personally went through the financial class for adults and found it life altering, said Stacey Chisholm, one of Visions youth leaders. In less than 10 months I paid off 17,000 in debt and changed my spending habits for the better. I hope to be able to pass on the advice and strategies to our youth.
This six-week course is open to any teens (grades 6 through 12) interested in learning how to deal with their finances in a productive way with God-leading their spending habits.
This course will begin in on March 18, and then on every other week on Sundays from 5-7 p.m. at Vision Community Church, located in the old Pine Island School in Pine Island.
