ACM MINISTER’S LETTER – WESLEY METHODIST 2024

As you read this letter, I will be completing my last few months of presbyteral (ministerial) training. On 1[st] September I will commence my 2-year probationary period and will become Reverend Steve. In my probationary period I still have to study and have to allocate 1 day a week to these studies. I will be undertaking a Masters in Theology and Mission. Probation will be followed by my ordination to Word and Sacrament, when I will become a Presbyter in 2026.

As from 1[st] September I will also be taking on pastoral responsibility for Trinity Methodist church. As I have been officially stationed to this circuit as from 1[st] September, I have a circuit welcome service at Wesley Methodist on 2[nd] September @ 7.30pm. I it be great to see you all there! My brass band has been invited to participate.

It is almost unbelievable to think that May marks 6 years of my ministry at Wesley. There have been great times of joy, but also of sadness as I have journeyed with you all these past years. I have great faith that God still has much for us to do here at Wesley, and it has been great to see so many new faces in our congregation over recent months, and we give God the praise for that. Many of our activities have been continuing to be successful in this pass year. Fusion Youth Club is regularly seeing 80-90 children, Parent & Toddlers is thriving and Memory Worship service attendance is definitely on the rise.

The weekly lunches have also been successful, due to the commitment of volunteers, to whom we give grateful thanks.

Our café is doing well and is seeing new people coming every week, and the table top sales, which have coincided, as well as raising amazing amounts for charities, have also attracted new people to the church. Janet Whiddett’s Tea & Cake events have again proven popular

The Wesley Warm Space, has been a beneficial outreach activity, and all those who helped are to be commended for their commitment and efforts.

This just leaves me to say a huge thank you to all those who work to keep Wesley functioning and active within our community in whichever role you undertake. Without you, the church would not be here, or would not be undertaking the mission activities it engages in, shining God’s love and light into our local community and beyond. Thank you.

I leave you with words of encouragement from the Apostle Paul: ‘ [12 ] Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses. [13 ] In the sight of God, who gives life to everything, and of Christ Jesus, who while testifying before Pontius Pilate made the good confession, I charge you [14 ] to keep this command without spot or blame until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, [15 ] which God will bring about in his own time – God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, [16 ] who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honour and might for ever. Amen. [1 Timothy 6:12-16 NIVUK]

May God richly bless you,

Pastor Steve Mayo

Circuit Report by Ian Lowe – Leadership Team Service.

Service – a place in the community, a place for justice

Circuit News ~~a~~ 1 Trinity Family Centre (TFC) At Circuit Meeting (CM) TFC requested a Circuit Grant in order to continue the work of the centre. Without a grant, the centre would have needed to close by the end of September 2023 and make employees redundant. The lack of funds situation had been caused by a matter of timing. Certain grant makers had closed applications, others could not be applied for because a full year had not passed since the last application had been made. Wage increases had also contributed to lack of funds. TFC had looked at whether services could be run on a voluntary basis but concluded this was not viable. Two new trustees had recently come on board with new ideas to make the centre sustainable. Revenue from the charity shop had also increased. CM requested the Circuit Finance Officer to look at the accounts of TFC and delegated to the Circuit Leadership Team (CLT) to consider the grant request and ensure all the paperwork was in order. After consideration, CLT granted TFC a match-funded grant of £7500 from the Elm Road fund.

The trustees of Trinity Family Centre thanked CM for the timely grant, which saved the centre from closure. Trinity were also extremely grateful for a generous personal donation following CM and the offer of a fundraising concert by Rev. Heather. TFC has subsequently been granted £7500 from the District to match the Circuit's commitment. With another grant of £9600.00 from Awards for All, TFC is back on a more secure financial footing .

2 The Experience Project

The Experience was nominated for a High Sheriff Award, and at Christmas helped Southend Hospital with food packages for staff.

3 UMC – Shoebury site

UMC Church Council agreed to cease worship at the Shoebury site, close this Church and put it up for sale. UMC will continue to worship at the Great Wakering site. CM approved this closure and this will now follow CPD procedures going to the next stage to Synod for approval.

4 Circuit Finances

Adrian Nunn was thanked for his work as Circuit Treasurer and handed over to Alistair Jenkins, the new Circuit Finance Officer. The Circuit ended up with only a very small deficit of £398 on an income of £407,592 in 2022/23. This was very pleasing given the uncertainties of the year and the cost of living crisis, which had impacted church incomes and assessments.

5 | P a g e

For the current year, 2023/24, CM accepted the proposals from Ian Lowe, Adrian Nunn and Rev. Pete Moorhouse that the Circuit budget would be the same as last year. This was very good news given inflation was over 10% at the time.

The Circuit Finance Officer met the Church Treasurers in April 2024 and they proposed the budget and individual church assessments for next year, 2024/25. CM agreed these. There has had to be an increase in the budget, largely due to Methodist wage increases, factoring in inflation costs and forecasts. It was agreed that the assessment for next year would be based on offering income (plus Gift Aid) and rental income and will result in a 7.1% increase for Wesley. The formula for Assessment was agreed to be for one year and will be reviewed again next year.

5 Stationing 2024/25 and Pastoral Oversight

Rev. Calvin notified CM that he had been given permission to curtail his appointment in the Circuit as he is seeking an overseas appointment. Rev. Pete thanked Calvin for his time given to the Circuit.

Pastor Steve Mayo’s candidating for the Southend and Leigh Circuit has been approved by the Stationing Committee.

Therefore, the following charges will take place from the 1st September 2024 and the following ministers will be allocated for Methodist year 2024/2025:

Castle Point Section

Benfleet: Rev. Zena Smith Canvey Island: Rev. Zena Smith Hadleigh: Rev. Pete Moorhouse and Rev. Zena Smith Thundersley: Rev. Zena Smith Rochford Section Hockley and Hawkwell: Rev. Agnes Sam Rayleigh: Rev. Norman Hooks Rochford: Rev. Agnes Sam UMC – Gt Wakering: Rev. Agnes Sam Leigh-on-Sea Section Belfairs: Rev. Steve Mayo Fishermen’s: Rev. Heather Simmons Highlands: Rev. Heather Simmons Wesley: Rev. Steve Mayo

Southend Section Chalkwell Park: Rev. Pete Moorhouse and Rev. Margaret Deans

Thorpe Bay: Rev. Pete Moorhouse Trinity: Rev. Steve Mayo and Deacon Sarah McDowall City Centre Chaplain: Deacon Sarah McDowall

6 Circuit Safeguarding Officer

Rob Gray stepped down after many years as Circuit Safeguarding Officer and CM expressed its thanks to him. Judy Taylor was proposed as the new Circuit Safeguarding Officer and CM was very pleased that she had offered. She was unanimously elected to this post.

7 CCLI Christian Copyright Licensing International

CCLI is a service that provides legal access to licensed audio and video content for churches, schools and organisations who use it in worship. CM agreed that a meeting should be set up for all Church projectionists in the Circuit to ensure that we are consistently following the legal requirements.

8 Matters Referred by Conference or District

By 2030 the Connexion aims to become Net Zero. Several churches in the Circuit have already made a commitment to this by achieving the Bronze Eco Church Award. A few others have taken steps to consider the Eco Church route. Installing solar panels had been considered by some churches, but it was noted that this would not be suitable for every building.

Synod agreed that every Church should have an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) paid for by the District. Belfairs, Benfleet and Wesley have already had these completed, paid for by the Circuit. The Circuit is going to work together to become Net Zero and is working with those churches that have expressed an interest in Solar panels, including Wesley, and has employed a company to help us consider this. Eco church surveys are being conducted across the Circuit and all churches are requested to make a commitment to achieving the Bronze Eco Church Award.

The Living Wage increased to £12 an hour from Nov 2023 – it was previously £10.90. All Church Treasurers have been informed and payroll is being amended, since Methodism is a Living Wage Employer. Two Circuit Staff were under the new Living Wage and it has been agreed to increase their salary to the Living Wage each year, automatically.

Equality, Diversity, Inclusion (EDI) Training – Judy Taylor was thanked at CM for leading the training sessions. People were reminded to notify the Circuit Office if they have completed the training online. District have concluded that the Southend and Leigh Circuit has completed their EDI training for all members that required it.

Communication report by Anna Wratislaw

Communications within Wesley continue apace, as we Qe promote all the events taking place at Wesley across ys print, digital and social media. Wesley recently featured ———in the Leigh-on-Sea News, where our Jumble Sale for Christian Hope International was advertised. It was brilliant to get included in this local paper, and goes a long way to promoting and demonstrating our community involvement. Thank you to Pam, Gabrielle and all the team for organising such a successful event bringing so many people into the church.

Over the last year, we have promoted our special services over Christmas and Easter. This included the production of a banner, website & social media artwork and posts, leaflets and/or cards. Over Christmas we also displayed material from the Methodist Church’s ‘Out of the Ordinary’ Christmas campaign, and we continue to make use of resources available from both Methodist Publishing and CPO (Christian Publishing and Outreach), such as the Explore prayer cards available on the prayer table.

Thank you to Judith Taylor for editing and printing the Clarion each month, Sue Hockett who produces our weekly notice sheet, and all those who help create, proofread and distribute our communications in all their forms – all hugely important for promoting everything that goes on at Wesley. Mindful of our aim to become an Eco Church, we continue to distribute communications via email where possible, and I encourage you to make use of this facility as we work to reduce our paper usage.

Please continue to be mindful of GDPR regulations and our policies if you are ever in a position where you need to take, keep or use personal data of any kind, or share any photos or information in regards to our events. Please speak to myself or Judith Taylor if you have any questions on GPDR or data protection within the church context.

Finance Report by Tina Gowers

Our income v expenditure, for the first 8 months of the financial year a a 2023/2024, shows a deficit of just over £6,000. However, I am expecting a gift aid claim of around £5,800 and income from this year’s gift day donations. Our original budget for the year, predicted a £10K deficit but now, I think it will be nearer £4K and this is due to some repairs & maintenance not being carried out (although this may change before the end of the year). Deficits are always worrying as they cannot be sustained in the long-term.

Our offerings / giving is lower than our monthly circuit assessment and the shortfall has to be taken from other income sources i.e. lettings income, café income and other donations. This year, our annual assessment was £42,042 but next year, 2024/25, it will increase to £45,027.

FUSION Yo uth & Kids Report by Emma Hearn Fusion Youth Leader

Fusion Youth & Kids meets once a month on a Thursday night at 6pm and has up to 100 children attend of primary school age. The children enter through the church and then go through to the back where there are a number of different activities set up – board games, sports, xbox, karaoke, hairdressing, lego, dressing up and lots more! The last half an hour we come into the Church space for our ‘worship’ where we sing songs, have a 10/15minute talk lead by me and then some group games and prayers from our prayer board to round the evening off.

We always have a theme to our regular evenings and an important part is to share our love of Jesus with the children through stories, videos, singing, short plays etc. It really is a joy to see the children learn about Jesus and hopefully, whether it be now or in the future, come to want to know more.

Recent themes have been:

Our Team

We are truly blessed to have our righthand ladies - Sam and Clare who work tirelessly for Fusion along with Sami, Luke, Trudi, Ben, Alan along with our wonderful Church family members.

Alan continues to help clear all the chairs for us every month and helps Judy with setting up at the start – thank you both for all your hard and dedicated work.

Our very own Steve Mayo who may not be able to attend regularly due to his many other commitments, has and continues to be, a massive support to the youth of our church and community.

The Sanctuary Café – Youth in our Church by Emma Hearn

We have been very lucky to have 4 Duke of Edinburgh volunteers on a Saturday morning at the café. They have been serving, clearing tables and talking to our customers. They have enjoyed themselves and I have had great reports back from our team about them. One young person who has completed their 3 month period told their mum that maybe her and her mum could help out sometimes. These are people who have never set foot in our church before and now wanting to be part of our community – how wonderful!

Thank you to everyone who volunteers and supports the work of the youth in our church.

Finley, Louie and George – D of E Volunteers

GDPR Report by Judy Taylor

We remain GDPR complaint and Gaye/Anna and myself recently completed an audit for the Circuit GDPR Checklist, which was approved at the Church Council April 2024 meeting. As a church we continue to be mindful of GDPR and starting from August we will be required to update the consent forms we hold in regards to keeping and storing personal information in order to contact members of our church. I would like to thank Gaye and Anna for all the work they do behind the scenes relating to GDPR and how vigilant they both are.

Pastoral Report by Eileen Simmons

I regard Pastoral Care as covering the complete range of events in our lives and it is a real privilege to hear about births (a bumper year), new jobs, examination results, interviews, new homes, family matters, birthdays and so on. Ill health is sad news and I would like to pay tribute here to Pastor Steve who is so prompt to visit at home or in hospital any of our Wesley family.

Pastor Steve and I would love to everyone, who thinks of themselves as in our Wesley family in a Pastoral Group, but currently we are not able to provide that. Methodism has certain rules and only Members can be responsible for a Pastoral Group. I would like to thank all the Pastoral Visitors for their amazing work.

However, Pastor Steve has a group of people, who wish to become members and that might lead to more opportunities. This is the structure, but every time I come to church for any reason I both witness and experience love, care, kindness, friendship and concern for each other.

We continue to welcome new people and there seems to be real evidence this year of how many of our activities introduce individuals to worship. This year one individual progressed from the Sanctuary Café to coming to Sunday worship. Another came via the Warm Room.

Do please talk to me if you would like to help with Pastoral work to ensure we do not leave people out. Even if you are not a member you could work with a Pastoral Visitor and team up with a small number of people to keep in touch. As my own group has grown to twenty two (I take all newcomers), I certainly would welcome your help. People so much appreciate visits, calls, emails, telephone calls and chats before and after church. This applies also to the Sanctuary Café, community lunches, afternoon teas and cakes and so on.

We are all God’s children and to care for each other is one of the greatest privileges in life.

Property Report by Alan Severne

Quinquennial Inspection

Every five years the church and ancillary buildings are inspected by a qualified surveyor. The report informs our priorities for essential works, grouped by urgency and in most cases giving an indication of costs though these are not definitive. The report suggests that a reasonable expectation of cost for the items identified is in the region of £60,000. The surveyor also advised that it has become more difficult in recent times to accurately estimate future costs and obtain quotes, an experience which is reflected locally.

Sanctuary

Internally the Sanctuary is generally still in good order, with minor issues only.

Externally some of the pointing should be replaced soon. It is suggested that pointing be performed in “chunks”, starting with the most weathered areas and continuing over an extended period depending on financial constraints. There are a small number of broken segments within the stained glass windows which would need specialist repair. There are no further signs of damp in the porch following remedial action.

Roofs

Rainwater continues to penetrate, under a particular combination of weather circumstances, near the vent structure on the apex of the Sanctuary roof.

I looked over all the flat roof areas and found that the summer heat has caused a number of issues which will need attention once the weather improves. Estimates are being sought. Flat roofs generally have a finite lifespan, though there are some systems which offer a lifetime guarantee these are usually substantially more expensive. Roof renewal can also offer the opportunity – or requirement – to improve insulation. Affordability is a significant factor here.

Organ

The organ is playable following some adjustments by our normal tuner. The relatively wide variations in humidity and temperature as the church is used are responsible for many of its “quirks” . It remains on the agenda of the property and finance group and we are in the initial stages of exploring what another rebuilder might be able to suggest, previous quotes being impractical in current circumstances.

Manse Garden

Gaye has transformed this area to an environmentally friendly space - having a wildflower theme, with further measures planned to enhance the appeal of the area for birds and insects. You may have already seen the birds enjoying her hospitality! The fence will be up shortly.

13 | P a g e

Lighting and Electrical

Sanctuary internal lighting remains satisfactory following repairs. Emergency lighting throughout the premises is tested monthly and is satisfactory except for inside the lift (See below).

Some of the oldest internal lights in other parts of the building are obsolete and will need to be replaced in the not too distant future. Following the success of the emergency LED units in the Youth Hall and the Concourse it seems prudent to consider where similar units might also be used instead of fluorescent devices and I expect to present costs at the next CC.

Lift

The independent inspection carried out on 11[th] April was satisfactory except for the emergency lighting and external sounder and the lift was put back in full service the same morning. (The emergency call connection remains operational if the button can be found in the dark: a temporary battery light is in the car and I’ve posted notices about the issue

Halls

The primary issue is interior finishes, which in many cases have deteriorated over time or due to historical leaks.

Boilers/Water Heaters/Plumbing

Central Heating Boilers have supported heating both the Church and Halls throughout the winter without issue. They are still in the top category for energy efficiency. The new kitchen water heater is also working well. The water heaters providing hot water to the toilets / flower room / both serveries have both failed. CC have agreed these can be replaced; the initial quote was £1544 but I expect to improve substantially on this and works to be completed in the next fortnight.

Safeguarding Report by Judy Taylor

This year has seen many members of the circuit undertake both Safeguarding /Equality and Diversity/Unconscious Bias training, A which is great news and we are nearly up to date with all those who are required to undertake Safeguarding training for the roles they hold in the churches of our circuit. The Safeguarding Policy for Wesley has been reviewed and passed by Church Council at our April 2024 meeting. The documentation for the Warm Space was also brought to this meeting for several actions to be agreed by Church Council, and was agreed unanimously.

Worship and Mission Report by Gabrielle Greenway

Worship

Since the last Church Council we have had a number of special services, firstly the Covenant Service on 4[th] February, this was moved away from the New Year period as it was thought that people might be away but it was still not particularly well attended. On Mothering Sunday, Pastor Steve preached for the first time at this service at Wesley, it was well attended and much appreciated. Our Easter services in the section were also a great blessing.

We have had some new people attending worship, including 3 new children, with 2 more visiting on Easter Sunday. Most preachers included the children in worship with a special talk and activities. Wesley always requests this of visiting preachers. Notably during the Easter season, our service following Shrove Tuesday, Palm Sunday and Easter Day services had full participation from the children.

This quarter we were allocated 3 Local arrangement services, which is a hard task with only 2 active worship leaders and no control over the dates. Isobel stepped up and organised the first service with Judy, even though it was the morning after the play. Judy is leading worship on 21[st] April and we have solved the 3[rd] Sunday when neither were available by joining Belfairs on 26[th] May when Jane is preaching. Next quarter we are being allowed more control over our services and we hope Local Arrangements can be planned in advance.

Mission and Outreach

Our missional activities continue, Fusion is covered elsewhere but remains extremely popular.

Parent and Toddler is always busy with a loving, supportive family atmosphere. We have a new helper, Hannah, and Becca is hoping to rejoin in September as a helper.

The cafe is popular, especially the cakes! We have a number of regular customers who are now a real part of the Wesley community.

Warm Hub is reported elsewhere but numbers of attendees were significantly up on last year.

The recent jumble sale in aid of Christian Hope International was a great success and very well attended. Pam and the team were well organised as usual and worked very hard during the preceding weeks and in the clearing up. Over £1000 was raised for the charity. The cafe was exceptionally busy and the team worked really hard, over £200 was taken for Wesley funds.

Judy is reporting on our application to participate in the Eco Church scheme, something all Methodist Churches are asked to get involved in. As part of this we have begun a native wild flower garden and rewilded the small front garden. Two apple trees

15 | P a g e

have been planted, one in the front and one in the back garden, a Tayberry is being trained against the fence at the back. The Eco church movement encourages us to grow food plants where possible. "

Then it continues with We will also be planting....

We will also be planting some tomato plants in the front garden. This project has been widely supported by members of various groups using the building, with donations of plants, seeds and bird food, a bird box and bug houses. Soon the area will be fenced and the pond enlarged.

Reports from other Church Groups:

Advisory Group on Property and Finance by Judy Taylor

This year saw the Property and Finance committee merging to form one committee, sadly Geoff Nash retired from the committee and we thank him for all his diligence with taking the notes and all the other many jobs that he held. The Committee is working through the Quinquennial Report to make suggestions to Church Council to move forward with works that need to be undertaken, of which there are several range from those of a small cost to those which will require large sum of money to complete. We are grateful to all who serve on this committee.

Afternoon Tea Report By Janet Whiddett

As we begin another year of Summertime Afternoon Tea and Cakes, the weather is cold and wet for Spring. Each afternoon brings a different mic of people but the format is still the same. A safe, familiar place to meet with old friends and more time to welcome and begin to know new ones. Table are laid with pretty tablecloths in the Canteen Room which is usually a light, sunny space. It is good to see all age groups and well behaved dogs enjoying a relaxing afternoon together. There is always a selection of cakes and biscuits to choose from, with plenty lever over to take a slice or two home. Pam, Julie and helpers work hard making a great refreshment team and thank you to Linda Lister who kindly bakes a delicious cake each time.

We hope these afternoons provide time for good conversation, friendship and the opportunity for anyone to ask questions about faith and the life of our Church.

Cameo House Group Report By Jane Fulford

This house group is a very friendly group of members from Wesley. We usually meet once a month on the third Wednesday in the afternoon at Wesley in the concourse. There is no set agenda for the year we decide each meeting the time before – so a mix of topics can be reviewed varying from Scripture to current local and national concerns. We number about 8 and any newcomers are very welcome.

Team Jumble from Pam and the Jumble Team

So far an amazing amount of £1,237.00 has been raised for the CH and ALS school [Christian Hope International] Many thanks go to:

This really was a team event and would not have happened with our everyone’s contribution, however small.

Creative Worship Report by Jane Fulford

Creative Worship is held on the 4[th] Tuesday of each month for just less than an hour beginning at 8pm. They are always different but tend to be more mediative. I am very grateful to Isobel Wratislaw and Sue Hocket who lead these services with thought and care.

The dates for Summer 2024are

Tuesday 28[th] May 8pm Tuesday 25[th] June 8pm Tuesday 23[rd] July 8pm No meeting in August

Always different

Do come and join us.

Inspire Service Report by Judy Taylor

Inspire Services are held once a month on the third Sunday of the month at 5:30[coffee and cake provided] These services are led by Sanya/Judy/Isobel/Pastor Steve and offer many different styles of worship. We have grown in number and would welcome anyone who would like to come and experience something different. We are very thankful to all our leaders and the work they put into creating exciting and thoughtful provoking worship in a laid back style. All our welcome.

Parent and Toddlers Report by Georgina Paveling

P&T is continuing to grow in popularity. As we say goodbye to our graduates it seems so quiet but word soon gets around. And now we have a whole new wave of babies (lots of twins) coming in, who will no doubt be with us till preschool. The group still has its regulars and continues to forge strong bonds and relationships and supporting each other through daily parenting issues to general problems in life.

Volunteers: Since Becca’s departure last September we have continued as always but with just myself, June & Gaye as the main leaders. However we now have Hannah one of our parents who attends the group that pitches in too. Hannah has attended the group for around two years now with her son Percy. Hannah helps out with crafting and tuft tray activities and bakes cakes for our sessions. Hannah’s well known for her homemade playdough which often fragrances the room with smells of lavender, gingerbread and cinnamon.

Hannah helps when she cans but as she has her son Percy she can’t give as much of her time as she would like to.

However, Becca is expecting her second child in September and she intends on returning to playgroup after the babies arrived. Which is just brilliant news! Though we’ve continued as we have always it’s been a lot more work. So having her back will be wonderful.

Activities: The group still has a lot of crafts and themed weeks. Celebrating Divali, Chinese new year, Valentines, Easter , Christmas. Which we throw ourselves into with decorations, crafts and activities.

Wesley the lion: Wesley as you may know by now is our groups everywhere bear. Each week a child has the opportunity to take him home with them and share a week of adventure. We ask that they send us pictures of their time with Wesley and we put them in our book. Which we share with the rest of the group at carpet time. Wesley’s so popular we may have to consider a second character. Tears are often shed when having to pass him onto the next child. The children love Wesley’s rucksack which they carry him in with his passport, pyjamas and clothes. Some of which have been made by carers that attend the group.

Refreshments : We continue to produce homemade cakes each week for the group. From banana loafs to cupcakes and serve good coffee and tea. Often people tell us that this is one of the things they’ve been told is the groups selling points. We like to offer our parents and carers a treat. It’s hard work with the little ones! But we don’t forget them either. So we have fresh fruit and juice for them too.

20 | P a g e

Supporting charities: We like to support charities some weeks. Donating the £2 donations to the charity of our choice. We’ve raised money for Children in need, Comic relief and recently The National Autistic society. One of our mums ran the London marathon for NAS this year as her son Rupert who attended the group is Autistic. So again supporting those within the group and their achievements.

Environment: we like to do our bit to save the planet at the group. So we’ve continued with our Wesley swap shop box. Where people can bring in children’s/ baby clothes and take anything they’d like. We also recycle our coffee pods through the pod service and we have swapped our paper plates to plastic reusable ones.

It’s been harder with less volunteer's this year. However we’ve continued to work hard to keep up all the lovely things we offer our visitors. And we maintain a welcoming and inclusive environment which we’re proud of.

Poetry Report by Joan Hawkins.

Talking Poetry remains an enjoyable friendly fortnightly meeting for our nine members, although they aren’t always able to be present at each meeting.

We have a programme of poets or a subject, and although we start with serious intent, having spent time researching books and the internet, there are usually a few laughs as some of us feel we haven’t grasped the poet’s meaning.

Two of our older members have left us this year, but we have had an extra two joining, which is encouraging.

If you think you may enjoy a very relaxed approach to poetry, please email Joan on joanh838@icloud.com

Southend Foodbank Report by Anna Wratislaw

Wesley continues to collect donations for Southend Foodbank and deliver these to the warehouse. A collection bin is available at the back of the church sanctuary, and all donations are very gratefully received.

Over the past year, the foodbank has been serving people who are struggling with the national cost of living crisis, and increased fuel bills. In one year, access to Southend Foodbank has jumped 64.6%. In March 2024, the Foodbank received 626 referrals and provided enough 3-day food parcels for 1584 people; although this is slightly less than the same period last year, it is still 70% higher than March 2022.

In addition to providing 3 days of emergency food across 8 locations, Southend Foodbank provides signposting to additional services, including enabling a member of the Citizens Advice team to be available at 4 of their busiest distribution centres. The Foodbank’s Chair of Trustees writes that “[a]s we move into a new year, the financial indications show that this coming year may see even greater need and greater access to our services. Yet we trust that in all this, we would be a light that shines in our community, a light that brings hope to those who are in crisis.”

We are endeavouring to include an updated list of most needed items in the weekly notice sheet; for those with smartphones, the Bank the Food app can keep you updated with this list and will ping your phone when you enter a supermarket that has a foodbank donation point. The app is completely free and was developed in Southend with a local charity supporting Southend Foodbank. More information on how to donate food, drop-off points, financial donations and other ways to donate are available on the Southend Foodbank website, or please speak to Anna Wratislaw. Thank you for all you are able to give.

The Clarion Report by Judy Taylor

It has been a pleasure to be the Editor of the Clarion for another year and I would like to thank everyone who contributes whether it is monthly or ad hoc, your items are also most welcome. The Clarion is sent by post to 25 people who have requested a monthly copy and to an email group of over 30 people. Thank you to all those who send on copies of the Clarion, it is good to see how well travelled our magazine is. Here’s to another successful year of sharing news/events with our church community and wider.

Thursday Call House Group Report by Isobel Wratislaw

Thursday Call continues to meet on the third Thursday of the month, in the homes of members (we can always facilitate joining by zoom for those not able to attend in person). Each session is led by a different member, alternating the style and theme . We would always welcome anyone who feels this might be something they’d like to join. Please see Isobel Wratislaw for details.

Thursday Lunches Report by Jane Fulford

These began in 2021 and ended in October 2023.

We had on average seven people but ranged from 4 to 15 on occasions. Miriam was organiser and cook with her friend Kate and Jane as helpers. Over this time a profit of £1, 335.46 was made for Church funds. Miriam always wanted to give her skills to the church once she retired – thank you Miriam.

She is on the rota for the sanctuary café and is happy to help with catering when available but the needs of her daughter’s nursery for a good cook means Miriam is employed again.

As helper I want to thank Miriam and Kate for their friendly, professional and committed approach to the Thursday Lunches.

Time for Prayer Report by Jane Fulford Prayer

At Wesley prayer is important as it should be both for individuals and in worship with and for others. We do have a prayer chain that is in the A. monthly Clarion. Each month there is a prayer diary – a prayer for each day of the month. Each month is different and there are about seven people who compose them.

We also have a Wesley WhatsApp prayer chain.

In the Vestry there is a prayer book for names to be read out in our Sunday morning worship for those in need of prayer and have requested t heir name be read out.

In our sanctuary there is a prayer table, usually with a prayer tree to be able to write prayers for others and hang them on the tree. In the concourse there is a prayer board. The Fusion Youth Club have a prayer board that is used each month. Recently at an Inspire Worship members of the church wrote supportive replies of prayer for the children. There is a peace table for Ukraine and Israel and Palestine where we do on occasions light candles.

It is hoped that anyone in need of prayer will be able to use any of the above methods to pray. If you want to be added to the prayer chain or WhatsApp group, please contact

23 | P a g e

me or a steward. If you want to write a prayer diary, please contact me. If you can think of any ways, we can encourage prayer please let us know.

Time for Prayer

A Time for Prayer meets third Thursday of the month at 10.30am for quiet prayer. As in previous years we prayer for members of the church, names on the prayer tree/table in the church and the Fusion prayer board.

The names are recorded and when permission is clear added to the Sunday morning Prayer book for Intercessions.

We feel it is important to pray for the needs of others as they are made known to us. The power of pray and the praying with others for individuals is a privilege and one we will continue to do.

However, the present timing is not working for people so I would like to offer a new time and possible format for September. Please do have a think and I welcome any discussion or suggestions.

Visits from Leigh North Street Primary School by Jane Fulford

Over the past three years Wesley Church has been approached by the reception class teacher from North Street Primary School to talk about Holy Week

Background

We do have a unique position with North Street Primary School as there is a gate from our car park to North Street playground. This enables classes to come to the building without going on public roads. Older children of primary age know us because of the Fusion Youth Club and in the summer months the Fusion Youth Club is allowed to use the school playground.

What happens on the visits.

Each year three reception classes have come one after the other with their teachers and teaching assistants in Holy Week. Thanks to members of the Youth Alpha and the Monday Art Group I had banners and large posters/paintings from a walk-through Easter Week for an Easter Fusion Special several years ago.

On the day, I talk to them about the days of Holy Week identifying that Holiday comes from Holy Day. On Palm Sunday we re-enact Jesus coming through the gate and shouting Hosanna – now Hooray. Then we move to the Last Supper, where twelve children become disciples and pretend to eat bread and wine. Alas one child is Judas and receives thirty pieces of silver at the font which is dressed as the Garden of Gethsemane. We look at the idea of Jesus dying on the cross but quickly go onto the Empty Tomb, (two café tables covered in black cloth) and of course the joy of Easter Sunday along with eggs and chocolate.

24 | P a g e

Must have done something correct as they are still coming.

In May 2023 a request came from Year One teachers from North Street to talk to three classes about what Christians believe – rather a tall order for five-year-olds so I talk more about what we do: singing hymns, reading scripture and saying prayers – having a chat to God. That is why I put a plea for children’s Bibles and may be doing so again this May. The ‘star’ of the show though was the church organ with all its stops, pedals and pipes. Rory, generous with his time, was available and could play and explain how it works. Our last activity was to sing to the tune of the wheels on the bus; -

The pedals on the organ go up and down, up and down.

The pipes on the organ go hoot, hoot, hoot.

The stops on the organ go in and out, in and out.

The keys on the organ go tap, tap, tap.

All great fun and reassuring that they can come into our church and learn ‘something’ of faith

The children are a delight, and their teachers and teaching assistants clearly know their pupils and are attentive, watchful, and caring.

Warm Hub Report by Geoff Fulford

This winter we ran the Warm Welcome for the second year, again on Tuesdays and Thursdays from November to March.

We had money left over from last year’s generous grant from The BEH District so did not need any new funding. We spent a total of £382.72 and also had some donations of £45.90 making the cost £336.82.

Over the 5 months we had 177 visitors, an increase of 53 (44%) on the 124 last winter. Again this was a very valuable service to those who came along. One change from last winter is that we offered free soup and a roll at lunchtimes and this was very well received. And again, it also served as a Community Hub, where people dropped in for a chat and a tea or coffee.

We had a number of helpers and I would like to thank: Dave Cox, Gaye Greenway, Peter Lister, Geoff Nash, Jan Pope (Belfairs), Richard King, Maureen Chambers and Rupert Bertie for their important contribution of time and conversation with our visitors.

Once more, I will leave it to the Church Council to decide if it is run next winter. However, I understand that the Methodist Connexion has now created rules for Warm Spaces (what a surprise) which we will have to comply with for winter 2024/5

WTG Report by Judy Taylor

Since the last ACM report we have put on a pantomime which was a huge success and enjoyed by cast and audience alike. Our March production “” was a complicated play with a small cast, however it was both fun to rehearse and perform. We are hoping to do another Murder Mystery evening in July 2024, which will be a one night production with a meal. As always if you fancy having a go and treading the boards or working behind stage you would be most welcome. As a Theatre group we are limited in our choice of production as our numbers decrease, it would be amazing to have some new recruits. Please contact either Judy Taylor/Isobel Wratislaw or any of the group.
