## **Sharing God’s Love** 

**Showing God’s Truth Serving God’s People** 

## **Annual Church Report** 

During the year September 2021- August 2022, Banner Cross Methodist Church has continued to witness to the Christian faith in Ecclesall, Sheffield, through its life of worship, learning, caring, serving and faith-sharing. 

The Church serves its local community in varied ways, largely through the lives of its members who disperse after each Sunday gathering and through work opportunities, volunteering activities in the community and by being alongside their neighbours, witness to the good news of Jesus Christ.  Worship and other meetings in person have been restored with caution being exercised. 

The Church has run weekly Saturday coffee mornings, for the benefit of church members and the local community, raising money for charities.  It has also organised a term-time pre-school group on a Monday (‘Little Fishes’) for young children and their carers.  The Church also has an Ecogroup which promotes good practice related to reducing carbon emissions. 

Banner Cross Methodist Church has continued with its project to fund a student through university in Sierra Leone.  It also supports Methodist and other charities through prayer, financial giving and providing information about their work. 

The Church premises are well maintained and used by a wide variety of community groups.  The life of worship, prayer and bible study has continued in a number of ways and the church has offered effective pastoral care both within and outside the church community. 

The Covid pandemic disrupted many of the church’s normal activities.  The financial implications of this, together with those of the cost of living crisis, mean that finances are more precarious and it will take some time to see the longer term implications.
