BidSunday 2021

Welcome to BidSunday 2021, the UCM’s annual fundraiser! For the safety of everyone in our community, BidSunday is a virtual event again this year. While there’s no substitute for a physical gathering at the church, we hope that you’ll enjoy BidSunday this year, whether you’re returning or it’s your first year participating!

How does BidSunday 2021 work?

There are two parts to BidSunday 2021: the live auction, which takes place on November 14 via Zoom, and the sale of fixed-price items, which you can sign up for from now until November 14 at 10 p.m. using the online forms below.

How do I participate in the live auction?

Use this Zoom link to join the live auction at 3 p.m. on November 14, 2021 (which is the same link as for the service that day): http://bit.ly/ucmtlsunday

To bid on the items that interest you, you’ll need to be able to use the chat function in Zoom. If you’re unable to do so, please find someone who can act as your proxy and bid on your behalf. (If you usually join the Zoom service by phone rather than by video, you’ll need to find a proxy to participate in the live auction.)

How do I buy fixed-price items?

Decide which items you’d like to purchase in the catalogue and note down their numbers, then go to the following links to indicate which items you’d like to buy:

·       Form 1: Accommodations, Art & Jewelry, Books & Puzzles (items 11-24): https://bit.ly/bidsunday2021form1

·       Form 2: Electronics, Events (items 25-34): https://bit.ly/bidsunday2021form2

·       Form 3: Food (items 35-58): https://bit.ly/bidsunday2021form3

·       Form 4: Gift Packs & Mystery Packages (items 59-70): https://bit.ly/bidsunday2021form4

·       Form 5: Household Items & Furniture, Kids, Services (items 71-88): https://bit.ly/bidsunday2021form5

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU CLICK ON THE “SUBMIT” BUTTON AT THE VERY END OF EACH FORM. If we have received your form, you will automatically receive a confirmation by email.

Make sure you fill out these forms by November 14, 2021, at 10 p.m.

Please note that indicating your interest in buying an item does not guarantee that you’ll get it. If more than one person is interested in the same item, a winner will be drawn at random using an online randomizer.

We understand that this year’s format may be technically challenging for some. If you have any questions or need help with anything, please contact us:
