The stewards continue to work closely with Louisa in the running the Church. You may feel you have not seen Louisa around as much but this is purely because of her busy schedule being the Superintendent of the circuit and minister of 4 churches. She does keep in regular touch with stewards and is aware of things happening in the Church. The Well Hub appears to be working extremely well (pardon the pun) with churches attending all the hub services at the various churches. There is still an ongoing problem with finding speakers for local arrangements and we are very grateful for members of our congregation who have stepped forward to fill some of these dates, again an appeal goes out to Church council members and the wider congregation for any ideas for visiting speakers. New contracts have now been drawn up for Amy and Sally, with the help of Andrew Crawford, District HR officer, and these have been agreed with the stewards and signed by the respective persons. Amy and Sally are working well together covering the Familiar faces, Coffee mornings and Men’s brunch however as always they are appealing for more helpers, the more they can get the fewer times each helper has to attend, so please do give this your consideration. The situation is similar for Mandy, the Family worker, she has now built up Children attend Friday club each Friday and chill Zone for the older ones every month, she also would like extra helpers especially for Family Fun which is held on the first Saturday of each month. She is also hugely thankful for the help given by John Seymour in supporting her with the Friday club work. The numbers continue to be good for Time for Tots. She is also responsible for the production of Time Out. Following a stewards meeting the frequency of the Time out was reduced to Bimonthly. This decision was taken following an examination of Mandy’s work hours when it was felt by the stewards that too many of her hours were being spent on working on Time Out and hopefully this will free up more hours for her Family work. Grahame continues his excellent work as the caretaker. On the 7[th] October we saw the return of the Vaccine clinics which will be held each Monday and Tuesday until about December. The 12[th] of October saw the final Saturday dance class held by Fleur’s Dance Class, this decision had been taken following a discussion between property committee members and Fleur as damage had been caused to the hall floor with the tap shoes. The floor has again been sanded and polished, but she felt it best to find alternative arrangements. She did make a significant donation towards the cost. As you know Bill King stepped down as Treasurer as from the end of September but has agreed to cover this position until February and an outside Finance officer has been appointed, this is Carl Andrews. He will work closely with Bill for a few months as the finances are handed over to him. This is of course all extra cost to the church but without such a post the church cannot operate. The Church council have to have a named treasurer from within the membership to comply with the rules and Jullian Wilde has agreed to be this person when Bill finally finishes. . Harvest service were held for Carr Lane school again with the whole of the school attending The finances of the church have given slight concern as we have seen a fall in income from both giving and room hires. Expenses have been high due to property maintenance and with wage rises. However we continue to be in a reasonable position but over the next 2/3 years some important decisions will have to be made.
