About Michael Kapets
About Michael Kapets

Retirement is something we all look forward to with anticipation. Many have felt they were not prepared or confident in the decisions they were making, which has led to mistakes. Working with a faithful financial guide can help eliminate any hesitation, provide education and help prevent oversights that distract you from your retirement goals. Our mission is to provide guidance and partner with Christians to help them make wise retirement decisions.


Over the years, we have created processes to support you in making wise financial decisions and help give you the confidence to retire fearlessly. Our process can prepare you in the years leading up to retirement and help put you in control to retire on your terms. In addition, we will continue to support you through retirement.


My wife Kay and I have three young daughters, Jayna, Elin & Kelsey. We spend a great deal of time with the girls at their activities. We embrace living in Wisconsin and enjoy fishing, boating and snowmobiling.

👋 Meet the Team Monday! 🎸🎶 We’re wrapping up our September Meet the Team series with one final answer to the question: “If you could learn one thing instantly, what would it be?” Last but certainly not least, Duane’s choice? GUITAR! 🤘 Forget spending hours learning chords, building calluses, and trying to get your fingers to cooperate, Duane would rather jump straight to picking up a guitar and knowing exactly what to do. 😂🎸 We can’t say we blame him. Being able to grab a guitar and play your favorite songs on command would be a pretty great skill to have! We’ve loved sharing everyone’s answers this month, but before we officially wrap up this series, we want to hear yours! If you could learn ONE thing instantly, what would it be? Tell us in the comments! 👇✨

👋 You may have noticed a new(ish) face when you walk through our doors! Although Lauren certainly isn’t new to the First Light team, you’re going to be seeing a whole lot more of her! 😊 For the past few years, Lauren has primarily worked behind the scenes, helping manage our marketing and online presence. Now, she’s moving from behind the scenes to front and center as our new receptionist! That means that while Lauren will continue taking care of our online presence, now she’ll also be the smiling face welcoming you to the office, the friendly voice answering the phone, and the person helping get you connected with the right member of our team. ❤️ We’re excited to have Lauren stepping into this new role. Be sure to say hello the next time you stop by! 👋
