Our services and worship put faith into practice through prayer and scripture, music and sacrament. When planning our activities for the year, the Pastor and Church Elders (who are managing trustees) have considered the Commission’s guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. We try to enable ordinary people to live out their faith as part of our fellowship community through: Worship and prayer; learning about the Gospel, and developing their knowledge and trust in Jesus. The provision of pastoral care for the congregation. Missionary and outreach work. To enable this work to be carried out, it is important that we maintain the fabric of the Church properties. ## **Achievements and Performance** ## _Worship and Prayer_ There are now 60 full members and 5 associate members. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic we were not meeting in the Church building until December 2020 for several weeks and then with the Government enforced lockdown the meetings in Church were again stopped. Bible Study and Prayer meetings continued on Tuesday evenings via Zoom with no physical meetings taking place. ## _Pastoral Care_ All weekly meetings were cancelled during the year due to the Covid-19 pandemic. ## _**Mission and Evangelism**_ The Church continues to regularly support 6 missionary organisations and 2 individual missionaries working in various parts of the world. We also provide adhoc gifts to 3 other missionary societies and 1 individual. ## **Reserves Policy** The Church Officers constantly review the level of funds and seek to ensure sufficient is carried forward to meet anticipated expenditures necessary to enable the church to continue its activities and to maintain the properties in good condition. Where surplus funds build up the Officers will seek the church members' agreement to make gifts to Missionaries and other Evangelical Christian work. ## **Structure, governance and management** Under the church rules it is the members' responsibility to appoint or dismiss a Church Officer who, on taking up office, becomes a trustee. Appointment is by means of a majority of at least 75% of the members voting to appoint that person an Officer. A Church Officer may resign at any time.
