Senior Leaders Trustee Report September 2023- August 2024
This report covers a period where we continued to implement some of the key changes at Eden become the Church Jesus intended rather than the Church we’ve inherited by man. It also saw us develop new strategies and challenge current outdated religious trends.
Here are the key insights into the year we just experienced:
1) Review of Finance
Please see the annual financial reports in the attached pdfs for details.
2) Review of Centre
The centre continued to be a well used space by the community with consistently around 500 people a week taking part in activities in our facility.
These range from kids groups, fitness groups, civic societies, local businesses, to the NHS as regular clients. All of whom fit our wholistic relational model in two ways; Firstly, serving the community in terms of wellbeing, fitness, advice and general healthcare. Secondly, supporting or serving younger families.
Our centre manager left us after a few years, as we made staff changes to budgets enforced on us by current trends. This meant that we had to scale down operations. David Alban took over maintenance and a new position purely looking after clients being created. After initially accepting the position, sadly they had to decline as had found other employment based on his previous work experience. We were however delighted to employ someone new to this role of client liaison officer and were appreciative of a smooth handover from the previous incumbent to the new in that process. We wish them every success in their new job.
3) Review of Church Life i) Community
We are delighted to say that community life continues to flourish. Many people continued to join us this past year and as such our partner list continues to grow.
We welcomed several new partners.
Throughout the year we continued developing deeper connections facilitated by a number of socials, from watching England in the Euros, bbq’s, bonfire nights, Christmas quiz and meal as well as our summer socials to end the year as a kind of August sabbatical from typical gatherings.
This gives our key volunteers a month of rest from serving on Sunday mornings in the usual way. We also paused over Christmas for this reason after a Christmas eve service.
ii) Lounge
We made huge progress in designing our new cafe refreshments area and we want to thank Jan Watts for getting much of this work funded. She has done an excellent job getting this space operational whilst I designed the space so it would work for midweek groups, Sundays and as a safe warm space for folk to be fed and watered in a phenomenal environment with highly affordable prices. Key to this design was finding the correct sound absorption design to allow the space to accommodate easier conversations.
We have started to open on Tuesdays and Wednesdays for warm and safe spaces. We’re running regular social nights on a Thursday, alongside a new mental health wellbeing group on Wednesdays.
This space has just started to thrive with many non Christians using the facility and building deeper connections with us. The opportunities ahead for us are endless and we are thankful for the team helping to volunteer to make this work.
iii) Gatherings
Our gatherings largely consisted of pressing into the principles and presence of God relationally. We also continued to equip our family to know themselves and their future roles outside and inside the church. We coined the phrase, we plant people not churches. We spent most of our time taking people through self discovery, equipping them to know themselves and their giftings. This will help us now and in the future determine how to coach them at Eden and in their worlds to bring Heaven to Earth.
Our series were;
-
Ekklesia
-
Glory
-
The Way of Chesed (God’s goodness)
-
Plexus
-
Playfulness
-
Redefining Holiness
-
APEST
-
Personalities
-
Organised to be Organic.
We also implemented our presence gatherings. Times of prophetic praise where we put the band in the middle and gathered around one another in a circle to praise God without a set Word to bring. These have been beautiful times.
We also had our first symposium event one late afternoon which although was a great success, we paused to make some adjustments for the future.
Key to Sundays is developing more speakers. With this in mind we began our seminars. Two talk options after worship. This allows us to specialise and give people options whilst we develop and train more speakers as Sundays are limited and need a high standard of teaching.
We are incredibly excited by these innovative initiatives, and are working hard to ensure they can be fantastic additions to connect to God and equip our family going forwards.
Our thanks to all those who spoke this year.
Our main highlight was having two baptism services, where some of our young people and new believers decided to be baptised.
iv) Kids and Youth
Our young people’s work underwent a huge overhaul. Victoria Dibbens taking on directing both kids and youth programs and subsequently a change in direction in terms of philosophy.
We are now child led in our work, which means we have numerous options to equip the more neurodiverse. We have built a new strong team supporting our kids and youth.
We are eager to see this ministry continue to thrive and develop as we seek to involve our young people as key partners in the whole family at Eden more and more.
v) Midweek Groups
We continued to serve the more outcast of our local communities, by supplying English lessons and pastoral care and support to those of different religions and nationalities. The majority of whom are Syrian and Ukrainian.
We relaunched our Church Equip groups, starting a family group around a meal which has proved popular and increased involvement and attendance. The goal is to simply build relationship with one another and God.
4) September 2024 - August 2025
Looking ahead, we’re aiming to start creating the teams of the new organisational charts, making the correct appointments for them and the Church family as a whole.
We will be using the profiling to build these teams and aim to have most of the church involved by the end of 2025.
Whilst we do that, our Sunday gatherings will be focussed on growing the church as we look at two key topics;
-
1) Honour
-
2) The Scriptures
5) Thank you to Everyone
To close, on behalf of the trustees and SLT, may I express my deepest appreciation to everyone involved in making this past year such a great and healthy year for Eden. Our teams have shown exceptional care, hard work to God’s vision for our family here.
A special thanks to our trustees, senior leadership team, and volunteers for their tireless efforts in making Eden what it is today. Without your invaluable contributions, we wouldn't be where we are now, on the edge of something very special indeed.
Thank you God for your guidance and protection, we will endeavour to be close to you and follow your Holy Spirits lead into a new way of being and doing Church.
Thank you for taking the time to read this report.
Respectfully submitted, Mike Dibbens
Senior Leader and Chair of the Trustees
