Consider Taking these Classes offered at St. John's!

Two new classes will be offered at St. John's starting this month. Take a look...


Financial Peace University consists of a 13 week video curriculum taught by financial expert Dave Ramsey. This is a life-changing program teaching people to achieve their financial goals by eliminating debt and saving for the future. Financial Peace University is highly entertaining for everyone, with a combination of humor, informative financial advice, and biblical messages. People will be challenged and motivated to make a plan for their money and change their family tree forever. Financial Peace University provides biblically based commonsense education and empowerment which gives HOPE to everyone from the financially secure to the financially distressed. Class materials and lifetime membership is $99.51 per family (husband, wife, teens, individuals and engaged couples). PREVIEW and registration will be held after every Mass on Jan. 14th and 15th in the St. Jude's Room.
