Each year we send a number of our high school and college-aged students to Saint Michael’s Conference in Hartford, Connecticut. The conferees pay for their registration fees, and the parish tries to cover the cost of transportation to and from the Conference. To help pay for the cost of transportation, the young people attending the Conference are having a Live Auction and a Silent Auction after the 11 AM Service on Sunday, June 5th. The Silent Auction will offer items that have been donated by the young people from crafts they have made or by local businesses and restaurants. The Live Auction will be each one of the conferees! They are willing to be auctioned off to do two or three hours of yard work or housework, wash cars or windows (no climbing ladders), walk the dog(s), babysit or help with “media instruction” (how to operate digital cameras, media players or computers). David Elsea has graciously accepted the job of auctioneer for the Live Auction. Please make sure you attend the cookout following the 11 AM Service on June 5th so you can take advantage of the Silent and Live Auctions.
