Overview of January to December 2023, some highlights.. -
This year we gave financial gifts to 8 few individuals wilhin Field Vineyard to support them in difficult
circumstances. We also gave financial gifts to Lighthouse Vineyard, a new church plant originating from a
partnership between Field Vineyard and Severn Vineyard,. Dreaming the Impossible (DTII, to support the
popular youth festival and increase the numbers who could attend,. a church in South Africa, supporting families
in Malawi to rebuild their lives following extensive flooding in the country.
We also created a fund to raise money for a new role on the staff team - a 'Kids and Youth Assistant. to bring
greater focus and attention to the under-eighteen's ministries within Field Vineyard.
NB. Several small gifts have been made to thank individuals for Iheir contributions to the life of the Church
during the year.
Newcomers - The Field Leadership Team has hosted three meals of getting lo know one another and lo ask
questions and find out about opportunities lo get involved in church life. Fifteen people have joined the church
this year.
Prayer Meetings - Julie Cole continued with a weekly prayer meeting over Zoom which has been well
atlended with a core group of regular prayers - praying for the church, the city, the country, and the world as
well as specific prayer requests. This group has been consistenlly meeting online to pray weekly since 2020. In
addition, in 2023 Caleb ran a midday prayer meeting on Wednesdays al 419. Like the online group, this meeting
had consistent attendees, with others joining, when possible, lo pray and enjoy God's presence together.
There were also three extended opportunities for increased prayer during 2023 a 24hrs of prayer in January,
using 419 for one hour slots., 24hrs in March using reflective images from the Stations of the Cross and a week

of prayer in June, specifically looking al Psalms of Lament, with various gathering5 each day for those who
wanted to pray together.
Children
We have seen growth in numbers with new children joining in and who enjoy their weekly
activities. We have also used the seNices of a Forest School Leader, bringing variety to the rhythm of
Children's church on Sunday mornings.
Youth The youth have gathered weekly on Thursdays during term-time and have enjoyed being together.
Partnering with Severn Vineyard has increased numbers attending and created deeper levels of connection and
fellowship within the youth. They also attended DTI, a youth festival.
mm
Worshlp - We place a high value on worship and have focused on rebuilding our music teams after the
pandemic.
Weekend away - We enjoyed a weekend away together as a Church family in Dartmoor in September, with
times for teaching, worship, fun and outdoor activities.
Sèrving the community - Many of our people have continued to support the work of sister church Severn
Vineyard's Food Bank, both through regular giving of money as well as regularly giving their time to this vital
ministry serving communities in South Bristol by packing boxing and food parcels. delivering those to clients
and attending the weekly clinic to chat to clients 8S they collect food parcels.
Premises Sharing
we have been delighted to share our building with other members of the community,
including a Ukrainian church who have been meeting for worship, worship practices and to run a Ukrainian
Alpha course. We have also welcomed Sustainable Faith to run their Spiritual Direction Training weekends.
The main bulk of teaching comes during our Sunday morning gatherings. Teaching has been moslly led by Tim
Cole and Caleb Pedersen, but others from within Field and from outside of the church have also taught. Our
mid-week groups encourage further growth and continuous development through accountable relationships and
discipling each other in smaller numbers.
Two of the leaders in the church attended the annual National Vineyard Leaders conference online in April
2023.. Jess Pedersen and Julie Cole.
Spiritual formation training courses have taken place throughout the year, run by members of the church using
the 'Practicing the way. series and one of the leaders is training with Sustainable Faith to become a Spiritual
Director.
In December, Caleb Pedersen ran a prophetic workshop lo train and equip the church in prophecy.

Income
Income of £161,509 was received in the year to 31 St December 2023. Field Vineyard's main source of income is
from donations from the members of the church.
Monthly income has been slow in increasing after the pandemic, but we are starting to see stability in our
monthly income and a steady increase in donations. Expenditure has been carefully managed in line with
reduced income and totalled £148,655 for the year. This gave a net surplus income after expenditure of
£12,855 of which £5.072, relates lo restricted funds.
Grants
In total, Field Vineyard made grants totalling £16,881 (£15,854 2022). Part of this figure represents a 5 % grant
to Vineyard Churches UK to further church planting both in the United Kingdom and internationally. Field
Vineyard, as part of Vineyard Churches UK & Ireland, will continue to contribute financially to Vineyard
Churches UK&I over the coming years to pursue its charitable objectives.
Reserves Policy
The Trust has determined to maintain a level of reserves, equal to at least 3 months expenditure approx. £40k,
but ideally 6 months approx. £80k to effectively meet the requirements of the long-term running of the Trust.
The level of reserves held at the year*nd was £313,309 of which £26,833 is free reserves, the free reserves
equate lo 2 months expenditure. During the year, there was a revaluation of the property owned by Field
Vineyard, increasing the value of reserves by £139,939. In the current uncertain investment climate, the
reserves policy is to keep these reserves on deposit at the highest rate of interest that can be earned ethically
and safely.
Rèsponsibilitles of the TrusteeslDirectors
Charity law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and
fair view of the slate of affairs of the charity and of its incoming resources and resources expended for the
period.
In preparing those financial statements, the Trustees are required lo..
-select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently.
-make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent.
-comply with applicable accounting standards and the Charities SORP (FRS 102), subject to any material
departures disclosed and explained in the financial statemenls., and
-prepare financial stalements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity
will continue in operation.
The Trustees are responsible for maintaining propef accounting records which disclose with reasonable
accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial
statements comply with the Charities Act 1993. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the
charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

In the case of each of the persons who are Trustees at the time when the report is approved, the following
applies..
-so far 8S the trustee is aware, there is no relevant aucfit information (information needed by the company's
auditors in connection with preparing their report) of which the company's auditors are unaware and
-each trustee has taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as a trustee to make themselves aware of
any audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information.
Small Company Special Provisions
The report of the directors has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions of the Companies Act
2006 relating to small companies.

Responslbllltles and

As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in
accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ("the Act.).
I report in respecl of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under section
145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all the
applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the
Act.
Independent
examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come lo my
attention in conneclion with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in,
any material respect:
the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the
Charities Act., or
the accounts did not accord with the accounting records,. or
the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the
form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports)
Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and
fair, view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent
examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other malters in connection with the
examination to which altention should be drawn in this report in order to enable
proper understanding of the accounts to be resched.
