One of Hope’s favorite events, the annual auction, will be week-long and virtual. We need everyone’s participation to make it a rousing success! Bidder registration is open, and we are taking donations!  

Dates to remember:

Monday, January 4: Bidder registration opens ($10 per bidder). Link: https://charityauction.bid/hopechurch2021 First day to make donations (see below).   Sunday, January 24: Adult Forum with the Auction Committee Thursday, February 25: Deadline for making donations. Sunday Feb 28, 7 p.m.: Online auction kickoff on Zoom with MC James Donovan Saturday March 6, 7 p.m.: Online auction closing celebration on Zoom, with entertainment and more!                             The auction committee is working hard to simplify the process for you. As a donor, you can post your own item on our auction site, or you can simply submit a donation form and we’ll do it for you. Forms are available from Rebecca Jones, rebtax@cox.net. Your donated item can be picked up from you or you can deliver it to the church during preset days/times to be announced soon.   For your winning bids, pickup times and dates will be set, or you can pay a little extra and have contactless delivery to your home.   And yes, there will be a virtual gift card pull!   We are still working on this new process for our auction, so some details are subject to change. Be sure to attend the Adult Forum on January 24 for more information, including how to post your donations, bid on items, and more.   If you get stuck, Eve Bjornsgaard, technology assistant, will be available to assist you by calling 918-361-8444.   More information will be coming in the next few weeks, so be sure to watch your weekly Highlights and regular mail!   Auction Committee: James Donovan and Rebecca Jones, co-chairs Joan Bjornsgaard, Eve Bjornsgaard, Lee Ann Cole, Christy Levine
