Share the Plate
“Share the Plate” will be split with half going to support our Fellowship’s ministries, and the other half going to support a worthy organization.
Pink Haven – Our March 2025 Share-the-Plate Partner
Our Share the Plate partner for March, Pink Haven is a Two Spirit, transgender, and gender-expansive (2STGE+) collective that secures safe housing, obtains or retains gender-affirming care, and provides advisory resources for gender-expansive people.
Founded in response to increasingly hostile transphobic governance, Pink Haven has helped hundreds of people relocate and provided them with local networks of support.
In the wake of the United State’s 2024 presidential election, Pink Haven and its supporters predict an exponential increase in 2STGE+ people seeking assistance. Strategically positioned to respond to urgent developments, Pink Haven is highly agile and doing essential work at this time. You can learn more about them at pinkhaven.org.

March 2025 – A Month of Glitz & Glamour (and Auctions!)
The Fellowship has many ways that we encourage you to support our ministries, through giving of your time, talent, and energy. But we also need funds to keep our ministries strong, pay our staff and support our facilities, pay for supplies, training, hospitality, and much more. Throughout the year we have had several FUN(d)raiser opportunities to support the Fellowship’s budget, but March is the biggest of them all! We will be having two auctions! Please plan to participate in both!
Online Auction via 32Auctions.com – From March 2-9 visit https://tinyurl.com/ConnectCommitAuction to bid, bid, bid! There are so many amazing items to bid on, including dinners, a game night, babysitting, baked goods, artwork, beautiful needlework, coaching sessions, opportunities for crafters, a chance to see a drag show with Rev. Christina, and more.
Glitz & Glamor Gala & Live Auction – On Saturday, March 29, get your tickets for a glamorous dinner, entertainment, and live auction event right here at the Fellowship! This is your chance to have fun, dress up, and bid on some wonderful items to support our ministries and programs! You could win dinner and PAC tickets, music lessons, box seats to the Timber Rattlers, a chance to select a sermon topic for both of our ministers at once, a horse-drawn carriage ride, a vacation at a 5-bedroom woodland retreat cabin, the use of a pop-up camper, and more! Visit https://tinyurl.com/uugala25 to reserve your seat at the Gala and sign up to help make it a success. Doors open at 5:30 pm, dinner at 6:00 pm, and auction at 7:00 pm.
Our goal between the two auction events is to raise $10,000.
