Our 29th Annual Benefit Auction was held October 26 & 27, 2012.

In 2012, our 29th annual benefit auction was held October 26 & 27 at the Farmersville Auction Grounds in Farmersville, Lancaster County PA. Collector items, beautiful quilts and wall hangings, toys, valuable gift certificates, great food, framed artwork, 3-D picture, hardware, tools and many more items were sold.

The auction goal was $95,000. We exceeded all expectations and had net receipts (after expenses) of $105,257 to be shared with 6 prison chaplain ministries and aftercare programs: Lancaster County Prison, Lancaster County Youth Intervention Center, Spirit and Word Ministries, Freedom Gate, Transition to Community/The Potter’s House, and We Care Programs. Since the auction began in a small way in 1983, almost $2 million dollars has been raised for prison ministry cuases through this annual auction.
