FEBRUARY 18, 2022 SJNCS WEEKLY St. John Neumann Catholic School Newsletter As an authentically Catholic community, we welcome and value each person's giftedness while inspiring growth in Truth, Wisdom, Faith & Virtue. We exemplify Christ's love in service to others. THE AUCTION IS COMING! THE AUCTION IS COMING! Have the kids been talking about all the things they have seen this week? From the Super Mario Bros. Legos to the Kate Spade purses, we have been blessed with amazing donations that will surely translate into financial support for our students and the mission and ministry of SJNCS. The auction will start at 9AM on Wednesday and conclude at 9PM on Friday. Even if you don't bid on a single item, you can certainly help the cause by telling friends and family about the auction and sharing all posts on social media. We will start previewing items and baskets daily on Facebook so share those posts with your network!! You can also make the most of the fun by hosting your own watch party next Friday night with your circle of friends. Go out or stay in, just make sure your phone battery is fully charged so you can keep hitting "increase bid" or watch to see what items are caught in fierce bidding wars! Let the fun begin!
