That's right! St. Cyprian's Anglican Church in Lacombe is going "high tech" with its first ever online fundraising silent auction!
As we describe in the introduction to our fundraiser...
St. Cyprian's has been active in Lacombe for 125 years. We strive to be a welcoming community that is empowered by God to grow in faith and share enthusiastically the fellowship of the church in the world.
We're raising funds to enable us to keep up our work in the community, which includes supporting and connecting with our elderly members, participating with other churches in aiding those in need, and supporting youth through contributions to local programs.
The bidding begins on Easter Monday, April 18, 2022 at 9 a.m. and runs through Tuesday evening, April 26, 2022 at 6 p.m. Mountain Daylight Time.
Though there are still donated items coming in, you can get a preview of what's on offer, with values, starting bids and bidding increments by visiting our auction site HERE. Make notes on what you see that's of greatest interest, so that you're ready to place your bid(s) when the virtual doors open!
You'll notice that most of the items are available only for local pick-up/delivery -- but there are some that would be available to have mailed/shipped. Winning bidders would have to work out the expense of that with the donor.
Join in the fun! To the highest bidders go the prizes!
Thank you to all our donors, to the volunteers behind the scenes rounding up donors' photos and information, handling the technology and monitoring the process as it moves ahead.
And thanks to all who support us with bids, with publicity and with prayers. May this be fun and a blessing for us and for our community. 😊
