St. Michael’s, Kirby
Annual Report and Financial Statements
Year ended 31[st] December 2022
St Michael’s PCC has the responsibility of co-opera7ng with the incumbent, in promo7ng in the ecclesias7cal parish the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelical, social and ecumenical. It also has the responsibility of maintaining the Church Hall in The Street, Kirby-le-Soken, and the Baker Hall at Kirby Cross.
Objec&ves and Ac&vi&es
The PCC is commiFed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our church and to become part of our parish community at St. Michaels. The PCC maintains an overview of worship throughout the parish and makes sugges7ons on how our services can involve the many groups that live within our parish. Our services and worship put faith into prac7ce through prayer and scripture, music and sacrament.
When planning our ac7vi7es for the year, we have considered the Commission’s guidance on public benefit and the supplementary guidance on chari7es for the advancement of religion. We try to enable ordinary people to live out their faith as part of our parish community through:
-
Worship and prayer; learning about the Gospel; and developing their knowledge and trust in Jesus.
-
Provision of pastoral care for people living in the parish.
-
Missionary and outreach work.
To facilitate this work, it is important that we maintain the fabric of the Church of St Michaels.
Worship and Prayer
The PCC is keen to offer a range of services during the week and over the course of the year that our
community find both beneficial and spiritually fulfilling. For example, evening prayers provide a quiet, in7mate and reflec7ve environment for worship whilst opportuni7es are provided for people to engage in more outgoing worship such as that provided by the youth group within our parish.
All are welcome to aFend our regular services. At present there are 74 parishioners on the Church Electoral Roll, 41 resident in the parish and 33 outside.
As well as our regular services, we enable our community to celebrate and thank God at the milestones of the journey through life. Through bap7sm we thank God for the gi\ 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 1 bap7sm and 1 thanksgiving, and 2 weddings and held 10 funerals in our church this year.
