Service Auction
The Service Auction is Here!
The online portion of the service auction opens April 27, 2025 at Noon and closes Sunday May 4 at 10:00 AM! Please visit soon to bid on your favorite items. Some items run out soon…so don’t wait too long. If you have spotted something you would like in the silent auction catalog, now is the time to make that bid. And, if you make a bid and someone tops it, you will receive an email letting you know so you can increase your bid. The live service auction catalog also becomes available today—so look through it to begin planning your bids! The live service auction will take place shortly after worship on Sunday, May 4. If you can’t attend in person, we can arrange a proxy bidder for you to help you secure the items you are interested in—just use the donation link ( https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/LD5QPN2) or email minister@nuuc.org.
Registering and bidding is easy. Just go to the auction site and complete the form. We are urging folks to register early so they can bid in the silent auction and so the live auction can start on time. If you are registered you will just check in as you enter church on Sunday and pick up your paddle. You will be ready to join the live auction fun after the service (the worship service will be slightly abbreviated, and the auction is expected to take under and hour). We will have hearty appetizers, lots of laughs and conversation as we wave those paddles and bid on the many things our friends have donated. While adults bid, children will enjoy carnival games, arts and crafts, and even a (temporary) tattoo parlor, all coordinated by NUUC teens (with adults to help supervise, of course).
If you wanted to donate something but missed the deadline, we might still be able to accommodate you. Just email minister@nuuc.org as soon as possible.
