Starting today, Nov. 2, Gospel music supporters will have the opportunity to bid on one-of-a-kind items on the Gospel Music Association’s “Growing More Active” online silent auction.

The name for this year’s Gospel Music Association auction—“Growing More Active”—“comes from our efforts over the past year as an association to get back to our mission,” says GMA Executive Director Jackie Patillo. “We have endured some very challenging seasons which have allowed us to re-establish our foundation. Now, as we look to the future, we feel confident that we'll be able to more actively serve our community with renewed purpose and value.”
