St. John’s Church To Host Virtual Silent Auction

St. John’s Episcopal Church in Franklin is getting creative initiating their first Virtual Silent
Auction for the public from August 27 through September 10. People will have a chance to bid
on merchandise from local and regional businesses. Select from a variety of goods and
services: food, retail merchandise, electronics, kid and adult activities, sports, museums &
outings.
Access the auction three ways: 1) the auction link at
https://www.32auctions.com/StJohnsFranklin; 2) St. John’s Church website at
stjohnsfranklinma.org; 3) on Facebook at St. John’s Episcopal Church.
Just register your name and contact details and the list of items will be displayed. It’s easy to
scroll through and make your bid. Check back often to update your bid! Bidding starts August 27
at 12:15 am and will end Friday, September 10 at 12 noon. The highest bidder on each item will
be contacted.
“Last year was tough on everyone,” said Rev. Kathy McAdams. “We have continued to gather
for worship in whatever way possible. We have continued to serve the community by growing
food for the Franklin Food Pantry, providing lunch for Common Cathedral and its unhoused
congregation twice, and installing a handicap-accessible restroom.”
Funds earned from the silent auction help continue outreach to the area, Rev. McAdams added.
“Please participate in our on-line auction, as well as the Pumpkin Patch in October, so that we
can continue to have a positive impact in the Franklin community and beyond.”
The Virtual Silent Auction and Pumpkin Patch replace the church’s holiday fair this winter. The
annual Christmas Fair has been a staple in Franklin and a source of income for St. John’s
Church.
