Financial Wellness & Gambling Awareness

Stay in Control. Think Clearly. Move Smarter.

Saturday, May 23, 2026 • 1:00 – 2:30 PM
Worldwide Outreach for Christ • 3808 Chicago Ave S, Minneapolis

A free afternoon of real talk on money, family, and the choices in between.

Al McFarlane moderates a powerful panel of community leaders, financial educators, and neighbors as we dig into everyday financial decisions, the rise of sports betting and lottery marketing, and what each of us can do to protect what matters.

No lectures. No labels. Just an honest community conversation — the kind we owe ourselves and the people we love.

Adults and families looking for practical money tools
Parents and grandparents wondering how to talk to young people about sports betting and gambling marketing
Faith leaders, educators, and youth-serving adults
Teens 15+ welcome with a parent or guardian
Anyone curious about the conversation

What you'll leave with

The skills to recognize early signs of gambling-related harm — in yourself, your family, your circle
A take-home action card and resource guide
Connections to free, local, trusted help
