2023- Janua
toAu
ust- Pastor Jeff Baxter
2023 continued to see improvement in numbers with a steady increase in people coming back
to Church. and we were up to around 48 attending during our Sunday Serviccs at the time of
the last AGM. All our kids. youth and adult groups wer¢ running as mentioned in last year's
report and carly in the year we also fffocussed our Manna Ministry activities to partner with
Gateway Church in their Food Bank Ministry in Barnsley with donations of canned goods and
similar being delivered to Gateway approximately every 8 weeks.
The announcement in March of my intention to retire from the Senior Minister role by the end
of the year (and Lilian's intention to step back from her various children's activities at the
same time) officially started two processes - w0￿1ng in tandem.
Firstly, w¢ started the process to identify and recruit a suitable successor to lead the church in
what we believ¢ will be another exciting chapt¢r of it's growth and development. I am
pleased to report that we found that successor (Pastor Paul) and w¢ look forward to the days
ahead to see liow God will use his tninistry.
Secondly we also had to identify the people and the organisational solutions to meet the needs
of the children's groups going forwards from September. With changes to times and the age
banding for the different groups worked out. we were delighted to see Chloe, Hannah and
Matt step up to Icad Powerpack and Adam take on further responsibility by leading the
younger Youth group (now called Sparks) as well as the Senior Youth group that hc had
before (renamed Occsy-gen). That then left the Sunday School lead position to be filled - see
belowl
It has been a joy to lead this church for nearly 22 years, and Lilian and I would like to give a
big thank you to all who came to our surprise retirement celebration in September, Thank you
too to all those who have helped make thi5 church the success it i¥ today and helped to lay the
foundations for the next chapter to come. Exciting timesl
God Bless

from Jesus we can do nothing.

Youth Work Report - A Year in Review - 2023
tn the 2023 there was a lot going on and th¢ year is split around th¢ school summer holidays.
whcre Pastor Jeff ￿tired from the rolc of Senior Minister and Lilian took a step back from the
¢hlldren's ministries at OCC.
Before the summer holidays. the youth work could be summarised as one group, Synergy•
that extended over all secondary school years and 6 fomi. The challenges to balance the
needs of the older and youngcr ends of the group were still very much present in that group.
The register shows 14 young people wbo were r¢gistered with us for Synergy. 19 sessions
wcre planned, onc of which was cancellcd duc to snow and one of which involved a trip to a
youth event held by Together Church in Wombwell. On average. each evening was attended
by 7 youth, with the highest attendance being l O and the lowest being 3. This does however
include the attendees to youth event in Wombwell, which numbered 3. The 3 attendees made
a commitment on that evening and were consistent attendees at Synergy following the event.
There is a plan to go to this y¢ar's event and th¢r¢ are 5 young pcopl¢ r¢gist¢r¢d to go, which
includes the 3 who went last year and some who want to go b￿ed on their reports of the
event! Also, during this period. there were 4 Cyc'ed events. the joint Saturday evening event
mcntioned above.
Following the summer holidays. the youth work went from one group to two. Synergy in
effect became OCCSY-Gen (OCC Senior Youth Generation) and the lower a8e range moved
up to school year 9, which is roughly 13 years old. What was Impact, the older children's
club, bccame Sparks. a younger youth group and its day moved to Friday, where the youth
workcr could fit the preparation of thc room into their aIlottcd hours. It covers school years 5
8. roughly 9 - 12 years old, wher¢ it Used to cover school years 4 - 6. roughly 8 - 1 O years
old.
The OCCSY-Gen register shows I l young people registered up to the end of December,
which includes the 3 young people who made commitments. The average attendance was 8
with fairly consistent attendance from a core of the group. Usually an evening consists of
food, a talk, and a game, however in rexent weeks. Ihe dynamic of the group has changed and
so this programme will be looking to become more active. There is always an opportunity for
thc young people to offer requesl8 for prayer and we can sce somc with a real heart for the
world around them in the rcqucsts thcy make. Thcrc arc also those requcsts drivcn from a
position of faith to see healing outworked.
Sparks has struggled to get attendance numbers up. This could be partly due to the change in
day from Impact days, but it suffers from the lack of word of mouth within the local young
pcople's ￿en¢ as it was prcdominantly drawing from the Wak¢field arca, which poses
challenges for transport for the young people. The register shows 4 young people registered;
however, this had dropped off to l young person attending by Christmas time. Thc style of
the evening has taken on more of a Bible study ethic, wlth the young person who attends
providing a section of scripture they want to study.

At a high level it would appear that our income was lower in 2023 than in 2022 by circa
£2000.
Our spending in 2023 was essentially the same as in 2022 and £6400 mor¢ than our income-
reduckng our year-end balance by the same amount..
However, the situation is somewhat better than this because a Gifi Aid request made on 16
December was not paid until 4 January 2024 - unlike a Similar payment r¢qucsted on 15
Dec 2022 which wa5 paid on 21" December that year. What a difference a day makes!
So, if we allow for the £4909.93 of d¢lay¢d Gift Aid. the total incom¢ was £70557.58 - whiLh
is a 4.2 % increase on the previous year.
Gifts and offerings are up 4.80/0, and Gift Aid - after allowing for the late payment-
increased by 0.40/0
Building hire (Gateway) continues to be impacted by incre&sed energy costs.
Interest on our savings account increased by 9000/0 - which sounds fanta51RC until you r¢alis¢
that is a pound amount increase of £11.34.
Other costs such as external speakers, events, training, expenses etc. are up - representing a
return to mor¢ normal activities post COVID and the ongoing MIT training of our new Senior
Minister.
Utility costs increased by 68 % in 2023 to £5666.
General Sundries expenditure up by just over £1 000 vs 2022, that figure is understated
due to the return of a £500 cash advance in 2023 that was originally provided in 2022 - so the
underlying increase was really circa £1500.
Missions support in 2023 at circa £3990 was over £29(X) higher than in 2022 with two one-off
gifts detailed below.
The building fund continued to see increas¢d activity post-COVID - the new officelmeeting
room, store cupboard and new store room are now eysentially complete - save for some new
carpet, decorating and a new door.
Finally, the decrease in the overdll balance of circa £6.4k is due mainly to the delayed Gift
Aid (£4.9k)- which had it arrived in D￿ember would have meant the drop was only £2500.
This drop wa5 ￿pected - ongoing building expenditure which reduced the building fund by
nearly £2600. Allowing for that gives an overall picture that is ￿sentiallY neutral for the year.
General Fund
Following the retirement of our long serving Senior Minister Rast Summer, and the suc¢essful
recruitment of his successor we now have six management tnistees (up from five). We
Continue to have two management trustees that are also employees ( i.e. they are in the
minority as per the requirements of our constifution) and thesc are the Senior Minister and the
Youth Leadcr. Thesc roles were rcmunerated with a total annual amount of £41,990 and they
received £447.20 in expenses during 2023 of which £297.20 (mil¢ag¢ allowance) was
included in the Salaries and Exp¢n5¢5 figure and £150 (hotel accommodation for training)
was included in th¢ Speakers, events. training, expenses etc enty. No other trustees reccivcd
personal expenses or remuncration in 2023. Allowing for this, the salary ￿st figure increascd
by l OQ/o - partly due to one-off items amund staff changes and partly to cost of living
increases.
In addition to recruiting a new Senior Minister, we also increased the hours of the Youth
Leader to 15 hours per week (from 10) to ￿flect changes in support for youth activities.

As mentioned above, building hire by Gateway has been impactcd by rising energy prices
which drove a major increase in our hourly rate - so the income figures shown h¢rc actually
repres¢nt a significant reduction in hours &8 Gateway cancelled all but one weekly and one
montbly activity.
Allowing for the aforementioned delayed Gift Aid, Gift aid tax recovery would have been up
60/0 to £4824.74 instead of the reduction shown.
In tern￿ of costs, we Continued to benefit from the governments assistance to small
entCTPriSCS (up to £5000 towards employer Nl - which meant we paid none).
Utility costs increased by 680/0 in 2023 to £5666. This would have been worse had it not been
for gTovernment support.
Admin costs (e.g. insurance, servicing. annual inspectAon of accounts. telephonelint¢met and
stationary) wer¢ essentially static (a small drop of circa 20/0).
Sundries were up significantly, reflecting increased ￿tivity post Covid and the arrival of our
new Senior Minister.
Missions Fund
This fund supports Glyn and Jayne Davis (Education for Life) in Kenya and {sinc¢ 2019)
Open Doors.
Income up 32 % primarily reflecting a special otTering being taken up.
The Gift Aid figure would have been £270 had the December Gift Aid not been delayed.
A on¢-off gift of £2400 was made in January to AOG GB Inc supporting the "Impact 25140
Ukraine Radiator Appeal" (prOV￿1n8 electric radiators to war impacted areas of Ukraine) and
an offering of £ 486.60 was sent in December to Assemblies of God GB Inc supporting the
"Impact 25..40 Libya & Morocco Appeal" (following the disasters in those areas).
School Ki
s&Youth
Activity levels continue to increase (as eviden¢¢d by increased tuckshop turnover). The
difference in giving to this fund v$ 2022 is largely due to th¢ one-off transfer of £1192.60
from the closure of the old toddlers group in 2022, though the figur¢ of £196 still represents a
significant drop in incom¢ from 2022.
10419 F nd
This fund was set up early in 2007 as we knew we needed to create a reserve fund in the light
of financial uncertainty ahead and the need for a Contingency.
In 2012, the fund w&8 used to make redundancy payments. There was no need to resort to this
fund in 2023.
Buildin
Fund
The interior renovation of the Darton building continues. The remodelling of what was the
gcnerdl office, an old 'L' shaped store room, the connecting hallway and the previous office
for the Pastor is now slructurally complete. We now have a large storeroom, extended
office/meeting roomlclassroom area and a walk in cupboard, making much more effici¢nt use
of space, with better lighting, insulation. and a modern suspended ceiling tI￿ough hallway,
and both rooms.
All that remains is the delivery of a new carpet for the extended room and hallway.
Income increased by 19 % to £4270. Gift Aid would have been £262.50 more bad the
December Gift Aid claim come through in time for year cnd.
Toddlers Grou
No activity. All funds were transfcrrcd to the Sunday SchooL Kids and Youth fund ill 2022.

OCC Media.
This covers th¢ sale of books, CDS, teaching materials and publications, No activity in 2023 -
the only cash cntry was for £15.80 in 2022 whlch was the last discount (from a supplier) for
books bought through OCC Media (from some time ago) that was discovered in a box during
some 'spring cleaning..
Church Worker Fund
This fvnd allows individuals to directly support the cost of any expens¢s incurred by any
worker Ipaidlunpaid) and employee salaries and benefits. In 2023 this provided n￿jOr support
towards the salary costs of our Senior Minister and our Youth Leader.
Donations in 2023 were down 30/0 to £18650. Gift Aid would have been £2540 higher had the
Gift Aid claim in December been ￿e1Ved by year end - that represents a l 0/0 drop vs the
previous year.
21
Started An 2004, this has been set up as a vehicle to encourage the support of mission8 from
out of Outreach Christian Centre itself (e.g. Betty at Mercy Ships, and Manna Ministries - as
Oppos￿ to the Missions Fund that provides support to external individuals or organisations
involved in missions).
No activity sin¢e 2015.
nnah Ministries
An expansion of Mannah Ministry (distributing gifts of food in the neighbourhood) this is set
up to allow people to give to this and similar activities set around our local community to
demonstrate the love of Christ in a prdCti¢al way. As with other funds this also allows gift aid
to increase the value of taxpayer donations. Other examples of support ar¢ a on¢ off gift was
given to the women's re￿ge in 2017 and for the support of the Barnsley Churches Drop In
Project in 2019 (which provided breakfast, food and other essentials to homeless and those in
extreme povety - but sadly closed in 2020). In 2023 we started supporting Gateway's
foodbank by providing food etc directly. This foodbank stopped at the end of 2023, and we
have been intmduced to the foodbank near Stairfoot roundabout in the Ebenezer Wesleyan
Refomi Church with a view to wntinuing our support there instead.
Clearin
Account
The Clearing A￿oUnt contains a number of restricted sums at various times through the year
- e.g. gifts for specific pury)oses, support for youth camps etc.. In 2023 the only income was
from the 'bottle' _ collecting small change - and an off¢ring takcn at a prayer meeting for
SYCLS. The only expenditure was for youth events (£30.30) and sending the offering
collected for SYCLS ((£99.46) and a donation made to Release (£7.50.

Tax & The Inland Revenue
We had to mak¢ (corporation) tax returns for years 2003. 2005. 2010 and 2016. We have
never had to pay any tax as a consequence.
We had to do a tax r¢turn in 2023 for 2022- again. no r¢quirement to pay tsx.
Recent changes to HMRC rules -"Basis Period Refortn" _ may require us to r¢port our
