Support Youth Ministry at the Time and Talent Auction

September 10, 2026

By Rick Stout

Sunday, September 27 will be the return of the youth’s annual “Time and Talent Auction” and luncheon sponsored by the Kent Youth Group. In the past each year our auction served as the MAJOR FUNDRAISER used to support the many activities our youth participate in during the year.

We already have the following items available for this year’s auction:

  • Two tickets to the Northwestern vs. OSU on Nov. 14 with parking pass
  • Use of a flat in London for a week
  • An OSU winter coat

While we are asking each of the youth to donate an item, there is room for the entire church to get involved in the fun. Donation items could include:

  • Theme baskets
  • Craft or handmade items.
  • Theater or movie tickets (Weathervane)
  • Knickknacks
  • Use of a cottage, cabin or timeshare
  • Dinner events
  • Use of a pool or picnic area
  • Gift certificates
  • Collectibles or antiques
  • The ideas are endless.

Won’t you please prayerfully consider ways you might be able to support our youth ministry through the donation of an item? Those interested in donating an item can do so by calling Rick at 330-283-4838 or by email at rickstout@kentmethodist.org.
