We had a beautiful day for Heart for Luther Park 2026 on August 1! We had a wonderful event with 82 items in our live auction, 68 items in our Silent Auction, and 32 items in our online only auction. THANK YOU to all our volunteers, quilt and item donors, staff and board members, as well as everyone who bid on and purchased items.
Preliminary totals from the live, silent, and online-only auctions are over $35,000 gross, with more than $7,000 to add in from the raffles, Maker’s Market, canteen, sponsorships, and donations. THANK YOU all for another wonderful event that raises funds to support the ministry of Luther Park Bible Camp!
