Disaster Ministries Auction Estimates Proceeds at $190,000!!!

The Shenandoah District Disaster Ministries Auction is pleased to announce estimated proceeds of $190,000 from this weekend’s event at the Rockingham County Fairgrounds.  God certainly blessed us with wonderful weather, faithful, hardworking volunteers and a great crowd of folks, some of whom traveled from as far away as Pennsylvania and Ohio. Here are some numbers from the weekend:

     1348 tickets sold for the Friday evening Oyster/Ham Dinner

     90 gallons of oysters fried and eaten

     193 pancakes and 333 omelets eaten on Saturday morning

     290 lunch tickets sold for Saturday’s lunch

     26 units of blood given

A more detailed accounting of the weekend’s proceeds will be provided after all expenses and revenues are processed. The Auction Coordinating Committee would like to thank everyone who helped to make the weekend a success. Your generosity ensures that the Shenandoah District and Brethren Disaster Ministries will be able to continue to respond in the name of Christ with money, supplies and volunteers when and wherever disaster strikes.
