Going Deeper Sowing Younger Growing Community …with Jesus at the centre

Report and Accounts for the Parochial Church Council of St Nicolas Church, Nuneaton 2022

Aim and purposes

St. Nicolas Parochial Church Council (PCC) has the responsibility of cooperating with the incumbent, the Reverend Chris Routledge, in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. The PCC is also specifically responsible for the maintenance of the Church Centre complex of St. Nicolas.

Objectives and Activities

The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our church and to become part of our parish community at St. Nicolas. The PCC maintains an overview of worship throughout the parish and makes suggestions on how our services can involve the many groups that live within our parish. Our services and worship put faith into practice through prayer and scripture, music and sacrament.

When planning our activities for the year, we have considered the Commission’s guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the supplementary guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. In particular, we try to enable ordinary people to live out their faith as part of our parish community through:

To facilitate this work it is important that we maintain the fabric of the Church of St. Nicolas and the Church Centre.

Achievements and Performance

Worship and Prayer

For much of the year, St. Nicolas was without a vicar so the Sunday morning services are now led by a small leadership team, with one of the team taking responsibility for the service each week, coordinating the service planning, liaising with visiting preachers and preparing the PowerPoint. This has been successful as each of the leaders has increased their knowledge and become familiar with the planning process and the services are now running smoothly due to careful preparation and forward planning. It has been notable that the service leaders have grown in confidence leading the service. The team meet regularly to share ideas and experiences and to encourage each other. This has taken the form of regular monthly breakfast meetings, planning the rota for the upcoming period and discussing any concerns or suggestions for improvement. The team have also undertaken some training in terms of how to conduct a service and with regards to some of the practicalities involved in organising the service, as well as offering each other spiritual encouragement, praying and reading the bible together. The team hope to undertake further training going forward, to help them to grow as spiritual leaders, and are encouraging other people to get involved in the service leadership role, offering mentoring as appropriate.

How many church members do we have?

All are welcome to attend our regular services. The average weekly attendance, counted during October, was about 50, but this number increased at festivals and Christmas carol services.

3 | P a g e

As well as our regular services, we enable our community to celebrate and thank God at the milestones of the journey through life. Through baptism we thank God for the gift of life, in marriage public vows are exchanged with God’s blessing and through funeral services friends and family express their grief and give thanks for the life which is now complete in this world and to commend the person into God's keeping. We have celebrated 8 baptisms and 1 wedding. There have been 8 funerals in 2022: 4 in church, and 4 at the crematorium conducted by ministers from St Nicolas. We also have occasional special services, often in the evening, to mark particular events or seasons. This year on Advent Sunday we hosted a Carol Service for the High Sheriff of Warwickshire.

Deanery Synod

Three members of the PCC sit on the deanery synod. This provides the PCC with an important link between the parish and the wider structures of the church.

St Nicolas Church office and centre

The centre is a very popular venue and used every day by a wide range of community groups in Nuneaton and beyond (church, social services, children, etc.) for functions, meetings, and classes. Feedback is always positive from users who value the social support and opportunity to meet likeminded groups of people.

Some of the long-established groups who use the centre include:

New groups in 2022

There are also rooms used for private parties and celebrations.

The centre is now thriving and in use most days and nights. This is very positive for the future.

The office Is the initial contact point for all enquiries: in person; by telephone and email. It is where many church functions are arranged and organised (weddings, funerals, baptisms, etc.). It is also the administration hub for events, the centre, invoicing, bookings, resolving issues and generally responsible for all day-to-day activities.

Mission and Evangelism

Every year St Nicolas Church gives away a percentage of its income to charity, this is a part of the money given either on the collection plate or through people’s bank accounts. It is 10% because there is a biblical precedent for a 10% ‘tithe’ to be made.

The nominated charities are chosen by the 10% group and then with the approval of the PCC, our treasurer sends the funds to each of those charities.

We have previously chosen 3 charities, one international, one national and one local which have a spread of interests both practical and spiritual and are representative of the mission of the Church.

In addition, we have a long-term commitment to support Evelyn, a student living in Peru, through the charity Compassion.

Working with other parishes

At St Nicolas Church we have had our problems resulting from the onslaught of the Covid pandemic and also being in interregnum. For my part, I believe that we have managed our worship and general administration remarkably well, all through the corporate efforts of church members. One way or another we have maintained the continuity of our services, both online for a time and now back in person again. We have remained undaunted.

This has not been the case with so many other churches locally, in particular the more rural parishes with smaller congregations and less resources than ourselves. They have been struggling to keep their worship going with any continuity and desperate for people to help with their services.

The supporting team at St Nicolas has been such a blessing to us all and it has freed me from some duties at St Nicolas to be of help to some of these struggling parishes, particularly in the leading and preaching at their services. Some parishes who are part of a benefice have held combined services to reduce the requirement for people to lead. Even then, it has been a major problem for the churchwardens to fill all the gaps. The whole situation has been exacerbated by there being numerous other vacancies in the deanery. The provision of Holy Communion has been especially difficult due to this shortfall in ordained clergy. From progress made so far, or lack of it, it seems that this is a situation for the long term and these parishes need our prayers and help where we can. I would find it no surprise to see a number of churches closing their doors in the not too distant future.

On a brighter note , these churches have dedicated members who work hard to maintain and bring their faith alive in their churches and communities and will be the core of any restoration and revival as we return to more ‘normal’ living and, hopefully, we will see the induction of more clergy to fill the vacancies within the Deanery. I have also learned that the ‘St Nicolas way’ is not the only way to worship. There is a refreshing variety of form and style in the worship of different churches. Bringing to mind the fact that our God in only interested in our true, heartfelt worship – it is us who pick the place and style. God will meet with us anywhere, anytime.

Ecumenical Relationships

The church is a member of Churches Together in Nuneaton, and is involved with the Saints project.

Financial Review

St Nicolas P.C.C Treasurer’s Annual Report for 2022

I am pleased to say that 2022 was a better year than 2021; after the Covid restrictions were lifted we have been meeting in person at church and more activities have been resumed.

In financial terms we have still made a loss unfortunately, but it is significantly less than it was in 2021 and 2020.

Overall our income increased by £6,767. The hall income was £17,500 higher now that our user groups are all back with new ones starting too. Unfortunately giving has reduced by £7,616 mostly because of a reduction in our planned giving.

Our expenditure was £95,886, only £828 more than 2021. Our Parish Share was reduced in 2022 and this helped us to keep overall expenditure down.

Our energy bills rose sharply towards the end of 2022 and that trend has continued into 2023.

Looking ahead to 2023 we need to address how we can increase our income and manage our expenditure carefully.
