## **Main Summary Points** 

As shown above, and overall, our total incomings of £117.1k are against an expenditure of £106.4k to show a balance of £10.7k. However, this is not a true picture of how we stand as we can only use the 'Current Account' and 'Buildings Deposit Account' for our 'everyday' expenditure and these are the accounts that we really use each year as a measure our income and expenditure. These are the accounts that we 'live by' in our giving, income and expenditure. The other accounts have external funding sources and are totally restricted or designated. 



**Current Account** Our balance for the year is £4.5k. We are thankful for a legacy gift of £4.3 k from the estate of Margaret Buckingham and we didn't pay our last instalment of the year of £4.1k to the Common Fund. Our fuel bill for 2022 was £4.9k! We were helped with a grant for £2.6k which will is not available again for us. We still have Gift Aid payments to come in. We need to increase our giving as we journey in faith towards fulfilling God's vision for us. 

**Buildings Deposit Account** Our balance for the year was a deficit of £2.5k on this account. We spent £3k on a new sound desk and equipment, thanks to a gift of a few ears ago, and these have made a noticeable difference to our sound quality. (Yes, the buildings deposit account isn't solely to do with buildings!) 

Thank you everybody for all you do to give generously to the work of God and his kingdom. We are stewards of the resources God has given to us individually, and as a church, and we need to continue to be generous as we are not a social club but God's anointed body called to be a blessing by giving. What does God want us to do individually with the resources he has entrusted us with? 

Plesae let me know if you need any further information relating to our accounts. Thank you to Nikki (Administrator) and Ursulyn (Treasurer) who have helped so much as we have moved over to a web-software solution using a teamapproach to our accounting systems, using 'Xero' software. This is indeed helping our overall efficiency, organisation and reporting.                                        Alan
