There was much up for grabs at the Discovery Inn on Saturday.

The venue hosted a garage sale to raise funds for a Vineyard Church mission trip to South Africa. The Life in Our Church group plans to join the Logos Hope, a ship that travels around the world to bring knowledge, help and hope to people in need.

The garage sale included a variety of items donated by the congregation, such as electronics, books and clothes.

Baird said 10 members of the congregation will fly to South Africa to board the vessel, which has visited nearly 500 ports in more than 150 countries since 1970.

The garage sale is one of the many fundraisers they have held for the trip, including movie nights, gift cards and breakfasts.

Alan Seaman, one of the members of the group, said they are offering a variety of gift cards for different franchises in town, such as Starbucks and Boston Pizza. He said the gift cards are worth the same amount as the cash they receive, but they get a small percentage from the vendor.
