17th Annual Gloria Dei Youth Auction

Saturday, February 22, 2025 from 5-9pm

Please join us for an evening of celebration and connection as we invest in our youth preparing to travel on one of this year’s summer trips. The night will include food, music, connection, a silent auction, and a live auction as well. Proceeds from this year’s auction will fund, in-part, our Middle School and High School Summer Trips!

WHERE ARE THEY HEADED THIS SUMMER?

HIGH SCHOOL- Cultural Immersion trip to San Antonio and Austin, TX

In Texas, we will be working with an organization that helps adults and students become “other” wise. We will be fully immersing ourselves into a culture and space much different than our own. This journey will create opportunities to make genuine connections with people outside of our community.

MIDDLE SCHOOL - Indianapolis

Through Youth Works, we will partner with organizations working to alleviate the immediate impacts of poverty throughout Indianapolis. We will learn about issues of hunger and homelessness as we support those who work on the front lines of these service organizations.

Summer trips are consistently some of our most impactful experiences that we can offer our Gloria Dei youth. Students return from trips more connected to one another, more connected to Gloria Dei, and more eager to live out their relationship with God and their love for their neighbors. These trips happen because of the generous support of Gloria Dei people like you! We never want the cost of a trip to prevent a student from participating. 

Our goal this year is to raise $20,000 to supplement the cost of the trips, and we need your help! Previous years’ auctions included more than 350 items each.
