Followers Online Silent Auction July 5 -12
Sunday, July 5, after worship - Sunday, July 12, until noonGreetings to all families of Fairmount Avenue United Methodist Church with Grace and Peace in Christ! Thank you always for your prayers and support for Youth ministry.
As well known, The FAUMC Followers Youth Group, is an active, committed, inquisitive group. Encouraged and grown in faith by Pastor Jin Hur, Pastor Shawna Horn and other trusted teachers and adults from our congregation, the youth explore their faith, friendships, leadership, mission, community outreach, singing, and the simple joy of hanging out with folks who accept you as you are. The Followers are passionate about "All are Welcome Here" and are an active group that follows Jesus on a journey to discover and deepen their faith in the Fairmount Avenue United Methodist Church community, Saint Paul, Minnesota.
Unfortunately, the Followers’ mission trip has been canceled this year due to the COVID pandemic. Nevertheless, our ministry, mission, and passion for the Kingdom of God are never stopped. Therefore, the Youth Ministry Team along with the Youth Council will provide a special fundraising event this summer: An online silent auction! It will be held in the first week of July.
Each year, the Followers raise funds to help support outreach activities including: community engagement, bringing songs of hope to the community, and one of the highlights of the year, venture out into our national community, in mission, demonstrating our faith in action. Your participation and support will be a great encouragement for the youth’s mission and ministry of 2020-2021.
You may remember in March, that Fairmount Avenue UMC switched to online worship the week of the scheduled annual Silent Auction and Pasta Dinner in response to Covid-19. Since many of the items donated are in the form of gift cards from local businesses, it is important to create an online auction experience to honor these generous donations.
The link of the event will be opened on Sunday, July 5, right after worship until Sunday, July 12, with the auction closing at noon.
