God’s Young Investors

God’s Young Investors Seminar Series

A seminar series for youth and young adults ages 9-12, and 13-18.

Sponsored by the Church of Christ in Milton

Facilitator:  Bro. Russell Holmes from the Church of Christ in Roxbury
Christian, Professional Financial Advisor and State Representative.

What does your child know about money? Do you know how to make financial fitness fun?  Is your child where they should be on the readiness map of financial fitness? What values regarding money does God want our children to understand?   How do I save?  How do I spend wisely?  How can I give in a God-honoring way?  What money skills should my child have mastered by age 18?

This seminar series will teach young people how to make smart financial decisions and how to avoid the traps that so easily mess up a young person’s financial health.  Sound biblical principles will be integrated into the discussion.  The very popular game, CASH FLOW, will be used to lead into each monthly, interactive discussion.  If you’d like your child to avoid many financial pitfalls and strengthen their awareness of God’s view of money management, encourage them to enroll in this monthly Saturday seminar sponsored by the Church of Christ in Milton, MA.
