The opening party for the 2024 Service Auction will be held in the Chu Fellowship Hall on Saturday, November 16, from 5PM to 8PM. The $20 price (per person) for early-bird tickets ends November 10. The price then goes to $25 per ticket, which is still a bargain. Children under 18 are free.

The Service Auction team will be selling tickets in the Terrace Room after Sunday’s service. You can also buy tickets at muuf.org using the “Give” tab or through Realm.

If you need a ride to the party on November 16, email us at serviceauction@muuf.org. If you can’t make it, you may designate a proxy to place bids on your behalf for a donation of $20.

Bidding for the service auction will start in-person during the kickoff party on November 16 and will continue online from November 18 – 24. There will be no bidding on Sunday, November 17, the dedication day for the Gateways Center.

The online auction will end at noon on November 24, and the service auction team will be available to provide bidding help on Sunday morning, November 24, at the Fellowship.

The deadline to submit offerings for the Service Auction has been extended to Sunday, November 3, and the Service Auction Committee will be available in the Terrace Room to provide assistance after Sunday’s service.

Tickets will be available after Sunday’s service in the Terrace Room for the 2024 Service Auction kickoff party. It will be the first event held in the new Chu Family Hall on Saturday, November 16, from 5PM to 8PM. Tickets are $20 in advance, $25 at the door. Children under 18 are free.

Bidding for the service auction will start in-person during the kickoff party and will continue online from November 18 – 24. 

The Service Auction team will take ticket payments in cash, by check, or via Venmo on Sunday. Congregation members can also register and pay via Realm.

The online auction platform is open for donations, and offerings must be posted by November 1st. 

In addition to selling event tickets on Sunday, The Service Auction Committee will be available to answer questions about the action or submitting offerings online. Please come by to share offering ideas!

If you already have an offering in mind, there is no need to wait. Go to our Service Auction web page, which links to the auction platform and guides you through the process. It also offers answers to common questions.

The foundation of the auction is the donations/offerings. Throughout the years, our members have hosted dinners and parties at their homes, arranged trips to favorite gardens and museums, organized hikes and game nights, invited guests to concerts or favorite restaurants, and offered personal services like gardening, cleaning, or house painting. Auction offerings also include food and artwork people make themselves.

The Service Auction is the biggest fundraiser of the year for the Fellowship, with the money going to the operating budget, but we call it our biggest “fun-raiser” because the activities we share throughout the year build friendships and community.
