The hub church Stortford, 07788612398
Portland Road, Bishop’s Stortford, Herts, CM233SL
Annual Report for the year ending 31 August 2021.
- Trustees. Mr A Hickman, Mr J Baxter served for the whole year and Miss Evelyn Ibekeh-Olasegha. 2. Purpose of the Charity. Throughout the report period, this charity has continued to promote the Christian Faith in Bishop’s Stortford. The congregation includes Portuguese, Bulgarian and Polish people living in the area plus Brazilians and other nationalities who have joined the church. The English Language School for the training of missionaries from Brazil which started in January 2007 continues to operate mostly with students from Europe and the UK. During the school year (up to 31 August 2021) we had 8 students in 2 classes. We have continued to help individuals with needs, within Bishop’s Stortford or the surrounding area when brought to our attention. During the report period, the building has continued to host the Portland Child Contact Centre. This fulfills a great need in the community. The Contact Centre provides a safe environment where solicitors and social services can arrange for children to meet with a separated parent on a regular basis, if necessary. Local people including dance classes, a camera club, a children’s activity group and a national slimming club continued to hire the building. 3. Report of progress towards our aims. As stated above, we continue to operate the Language school for 1 day a week. Weekends are used for the contact centre for broken families and church services on Sunday. Local community groups use the hall in the evenings when the church is not holding meetings. The newest addition that began in July 2020, to our work, is to host AA Meetings twice a week. The babies and toddlers group regularly has up to 20 mums with their children in attendance which brings in a small amount of finance.
Signed: Anthony Hickman (trustee) Date: 9th March 2022
