Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

The church continued to commit to its objectives throughout the year period. The church has sought to continue developing a positive, welcoming and inclusive culture through its in person services and online engagement with the community. The church has continued using small groups in homes called ‘CONNECT’ for the purpose of discipleship, teaching, prayer and fellowship. We currently have two groups running and the church is actively trying to develop more groups, as they provide a platform for growth, both spiritually and also relationally and are helpful for the delivery of pastoral care. The church has regularly received generous food donations from its members and members of the wider community which is then taken to the local food pantry that we partner with at Yardley Wood Baptist Church. The church has continued to use and develop its website and social media page as a means of advertising its online services, activities and promoting the aims and objectives of the charity to the community. The church trustees were successful in purchasing the plot of land immediately in front of and alongside its building from the City Council. This transaction was completed on 14[th] October 2022 at the cost to the church of £37,405, which includes legal and professional fees. The purpose of purchasing the land is to develop it into car parking and amenity land which will make the church building more accessible and presentable to the local community. (It should be noted that the church had obtained planning permission to develop the land in front of its building into a car park before it initiated the purchase.)
