And the Winning Number is $8,245.44!
On behalf of the Saint James Mission & Justice Committee, thank you to all who participated in our online auction and giving drive for the Lancaster County Food Hub!! We will be presenting a check in the amount of $8,245.44 to the Hub as a result of the online auction and additional cash donations received!
In February of this year, clergy made a gift of $2,500 from their discretionary account which is funded by contributions from parishioners bringing our total gift to $10,745.44.
Throughout our parish, parishioners and friends procured and/or donated 69 auction items resulting in 270 bids. A flurry of bidding activity proved engaging and successful with over 30 bidders competing for the Godiva Sweet Delights basket, and the top 10 list including a stay at a lovely Chesapeake Bay cottage and a round of golf at Lancaster County Country Club. We hope everyone enjoys their auction winning items and experiences!
Most importantly, your efforts will go a long way in helping the neighbors in our community with the resources they need the most—food, clothing and shelter. THANK YOU!
