BiddingOwl Presents: BiddingOwl: Free Charity Fundraising Auction Software

Welcome to Immanuel's FOURTH ONLINE AUCTION EVENT!  Most of us remember the fun and successful silent auctions in the Church Fellowship Hall in the past.  But Covid forced us online and the congregation's response has been awesome.  We expect even more fun this year.

Now is the perfect time to do early holiday shopping for Gift Cards, Arts and Crafts, Service Certificates and Vacation opportunities.  We hope you enjoy the diversity of the auction offerings, which stimulate you to bid and successfully walk away with these wonderful goods and services. 

We are opening the auction site for VIEWING ONLY on Sunday, November 17th and for BIDDING between 4:00pm on Friday, November 22nd and 4:00pm on Sunday, November 24th.  So you have plenty of time to bid and, if needed, bump up your bid if you get outbid.  The Bidding Owl software will notify you via text or email (your choice) when you get outbid so watch for these notifications.  You can access the Bidding Owl Immanuel Auction site using your phone, tablet or computer.

As an added treat, we will hold a FEATURED ITEMS EARLY BIRD AUCTION which will be open to online bidding, concluding with final bids in Fellowship Hall at NOON on the 24th. So be sure to check the Featured Items Early Bird category list to see which items will close bidding at noon, right after worship service on the 24th.

Start by using the URL link from Immanuel eBlasts and emails.  At the Home Page (you are here now), you can register using the Profile at the top right corner.  Return to the Home Page and next to this welcome narrative, you can either choose to see ALL AUCTION ITEMS or only those in certain categories (example - Getaways).  You probably want to look at everything as there are many enticing opportunities.  Be sure that you check out all pages of auction items. 

Once you see an item of interest, click on it and more information on that item will be displayed and this is where you will bid.  Once the auction closes (4PM on Sunday, 11/24), you will be informed of your winning bids and can enter your credit card in this confidential and secure site.  Your credit card information is not stored in the system after processing for your safety.  Your winning items will be mailed to you within days or you will receive an email with pick up arrangements.   

Remember, all proceeds go to Immanuel's General Fund.   Good luck, be competitive and HAVE FUN!!!
