## **THE PARISH CHURCH OF ST MARY THE VIRGIN, THEYDON BOIS ANNUAL REPORT OF ACTIVITIES 2021** St Mary’s Parochial Church Council, along with the Incumbent, has the responsibility for promoting, in the ecclesiastical parish of Theydon Bois, the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. The Parochial Church Council also has maintenance responsibilities for the church building (including the Parish Centre), Churchyard and Church Hall. ## **Membership of the Parochial Church Council (PCC)** Members of the PCC are either ex officio or elected by the Annual Parochial Church Meeting in accordance with the Church Representation Rules.

In 2021, the PCC met in person on 5 occasions and twice on Zoom. Copies of the minutes of PCC meetings were made available to all by request to the Benefice Office. The parish continues to work towards the shared Benefice Vision of The Theydon Parishes which is expressed in this way:- ## **Core values: Faith, love and community** . We seek to live these values by welcoming all, caring and teaching so that we may change lives through sharing the love of God in Christ. Andrea Crombie was appointed to serve as Parish Safeguarding Officer, and Safeguarding continues to be a standing item at all meetings. Safeguarding contact details are displayed in the church and on the Benefice website. The PCC has complied with its duty to have due regard to the House of Bishops’ Safeguarding Policy and Guidance. Two significant decisions were made by the PCC in 2021, these were to join the EcoChurch scheme (beginning working towards a Bronze award) and following a presentation by a PCC working group set up four years ago, to commit to the project to provide visual technology to aid the worship of the church, including the installation of a screen and projector and upgrade to the current audio system. ## **Sub committees** **Finance Committee** considers financial matters and makes recommendations to PCC. Meets as necessary. **Stewardship Working Group** considered the ways in which church members could be encouraged to give financially to St Mary’s and made recommendations to PCC, coordinating a yearly fundraising campaign. This group was chaired by Richard Risdon and ceased work in its present form at the end of the 2020 campaign. **Standing Committee** : has power to transact the business of the PCC between meetings. John Philip was elected to serve as a member alongside Rosalyn Philip as Secretary, the Vicar and the Churchwardens and meets as necessary. **Mission Committee** : Supports the work of Christian Mission at home and abroad, particularly of CMS, IPASC in D.R.Congo and Alison and Mozi Kotroci in Albania and promotes awareness of the wider mission of the Church.
