FYRE led a Financial Peace University (FPU) seminar over the course of 11 weeks in a small group. The FPU seminar teaches basic family finances, how to escape from debt and stay out, reach your goals, and what the Bible teaches about money management.

As a result of the seminar and hard work, several attendees were able to retire consumer debt, buy a home, resolve transportation for their family, and begin saving for the future.

Nathan Hewett and Asher Hewett, both age 14 and boarding students at Admiral Farragut Academy in St. Petersburg, FL, were awarded the rank of Eagle Scout. The Scouts attend Scouts BSA Troop 482 (Boy) in Riverview, FL chartered by the FYRE Foundation. Eagle Scout is Scouting’s highest honor.

Both Eagle Scouts want to continue serving their country at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, MD to become commissioned officers in the Navy.

Distinguished visitors at the Eagle Scout court of honor included Florida State House Representative District 57 Mike Beltran and BSA Southern Region Area IV National Vice President of National Adventures and Greater Tampa Bay Area Council’s Vice President of Membership Bill Gugliemi (U.S. Army, Retired), and The American Legion’s Department of Florida Scouting Program Chairman Christopher Ragusa (U.S. Navy, Retired).
