The PCC operates under the Parochial Church Council Powers Measure. The PCC registered as an independent charity in September 2009. The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. All who are a part of St. George’s Church are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and stand for election to the PCC. At the first PCC meeting after each APCM, there is a presentation of the role of the PCC and its relationship to other groups in the church as well as an explanation of the church’s vision. The Leadership Team was an extension of the ministry of the clergy and until March 2023 it had responsibility for vision, acting in a similar way to an eldership. The members were Chris Spencer, Chris Penfold, Ben Forbes, Jo Radcliffe and Alison Kent. The Leadership Team ceased to operate from April onwards while new terms of reference were agreed with the PCC for a new Mission and Ministry Team fulfilling a similar function. This team was not finalised by the end of the year Until April 2023 the Operational and Church Administrative staff and volunteers were managed by David Wake in his voluntary capacity as Interim Operations Coordinator. He also, along with Sue and Alan Fotheringham, had responsibility for day-to-day operational running and resourcing of church activities under the oversight of Revd. Chris Spencer. Since April 2023 Sue and Alan Fotheringham have overseen all these responsibilities. Ministerial staff are managed by the Vicar, Revd. Chris Spencer. St George’s Deal, Annual Report 2 The Standing Committee executes the business of the Council between meetings, makes recommendations concerning decisions and agrees items for the Council agenda. It acts as the Finance committee and budget monitoring group. The membership during 2023 was the Vicar, the Associate Minister, both Churchwardens, (one of whom is Lay Chair), both Treasurers and one other PCC member, David Wake. ## **Purpose of Sub-groups of PCC** The PCC has established the following working groups to assist in the management and oversight of its aims and objectives: - Stewardship Focus Group – formed to oversee the Stewardship Focus, and encourage generous stewardship - Mission Partnership Group – to make recommendations to PCC for allocation of Mission Giving - Personnel Group - HR matters are dealt with by the Vicar, Wardens and one other lay member appointed by PCC. - Safeguarding Group – this group monitors the implementation of the PCC’s safeguarding policy and procedures. Other groups are created for particular projects. During 2023 the St George’s Hall Development group was established to advise the PCC on the options for the future of St George’s Hall. All these groups report to the Standing Committee which then reports to the PCC. ## **Objectives and activities** The primary objective of the PCC is the promotion of the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to the doctrines and practices of the Church of England. St. George’s PCC has the responsibility of co- operating with the Vicar, The Revd. Christopher Spencer in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish and surrounding areas the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. It also has maintenance responsibilities for St. George’s Church and Extension, St. George’s Hall and Hardman Hall, High Street, Deal, and Hope House, 8a St George’s Road, Deal. When planning our activities for the year, the Vicar and PCC consider the Commission’s guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. ## **Review of the Year** A year of restng, restoring and reshaping The verse chosen for the year 2023 was Eph 3:20 -21 St George’s Deal, Annual Report 3 ‘ Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.’ As the church continued to recover from the effects of the Covid pandemic, and other changes in 2022, much of the year was spent prayerfully waiting on God as he brought about restoration and made us ready for the next chapter of St Georges life, ministry and mission. After Easter, we gathered for 6 weeks on Saturday mornings to pray, culminating with a week of prayer before Pentecost. In the autumn there was a further week of prayer with the church open for ‘Encounter Evenings’. ## Gathering for worship The pattern of a quiet said service of Holy Communion at 8am, weekly morning worship at 10.30am (with Communion once a month) on Sundays and mid-week Wednesday Communion service continued, with an ongoing sense of God’s presence among us. Week by week we are thankful to the many people who contribute to all the various aspects of our gatherings, hosting, making coffee, praying, leading and helping with children and young people’s groups, making music, staffing the AV desk, preaching, leading, setting up and clearing away. A new development in the year was making most of our all-age worship gatherings to be Café-church, gathering around tables for an interactive act of worship. Whilst this was a challenge for some, many very much value this means of truly interacting across the age range. Chris Penfold took the lead in this development, supported by Barbs and with the help of a number of others developing skills in leading worship. On one occasion, Caféchurch included Café- Communion, shared around each table. Dave Williams coordinated the music teams for the first half of the year, with Dave Stafford becoming Worship Team Leader in the summer. Alan Fotheringham continued to lead the AV team, developing the number of people involved and managing the increased demands of a weekly livestream for those who cannot be present, and those who are looking in from the outside. This added component is much valued by those who are house-bound, or unwell, or somewhere else in the world. Christmas worship continues to be a highlight in the year, with a full ‘normal’ pattern in 2023. We welcomed Martha Trust for their Carol Service and the Parochial School nativity play with Carols. Carols by Candlelight with choir and orchestra took place twice, on Sunday and Monday, gathering St Georges congregation, friends and family, and members of other churches in Deal. Christingle Carols with dressing up nativity were ticketed and full at both 3pm and 5pm, and Christmas morning saw a visit from some fairly bewildered shepherds, and a joyful celebration of the coming of Christ. We held a special service following the Coronation of King Charles III on May 7[th] , sitting at long banqueting tables, followed by a bring and share Coronation lunch. The church looked great decked out in red, white and blue, and it conveniently allowed us to celebrate Ben and Alice Forbes time with us, before they moved on to new ministry at St Mary’s Reigate. St George’s Deal, Annual Report 4 ## Personnel Rev. Chris Penfold was welcomed as Associate Minister in January, and Rev. Ben Forbes moved on to become Associate Minister of St Mary’s Reigate in May. Following the end of her time in ministry at St Georges in October 2022, we held a farewell for Rev. Shiela Porter in Sunday worship on June 4th, giving thanks to God and acknowledging her many years of ministry here. She will be remembered not least for her passion for evangelism and missionary discipleship, pursuing Fresh Expressions of church, and her great skills in organisation. In May 2023, Michelle Gill retired as Administrative Assistant due to ill-health, and Stella and Steve Banks were appointed to part-time posts as Church Administrator and Caretaker. These are new roles, and their arrival has been much appreciated. ## Youth and Children’s Ministry The number of young people (11-18) gathering on a Sunday night as our ‘Pulse’ Community grew steadily to around 15 throughout the year under the leadership of Lynne Williams working by the end of the year with Chris Penfold, Sue Ball, Sarah Fisher and Trevor Smart. A significant proportion of these young people are not from church families. 2 young people went away on CPAS CYFA Venture camps in the summer. The children’s ministry team continued to serve our children and families as they led the Sunday morning children’s groups: Paddlers for pre-schoolers meeting in the creche room, Divers for yrs R-4 in the Extension and Emerge for yrs 5-9 in Hope House. Smaller numbers of children and families in the congregation and more irregular attendance have made numbers erratic and group cohesion sometimes difficult, particularly for Emerge. Lisa Knight needed to step back from her role as Children’s ministry team leader during the year due to family commitments, and Emily Smith took this on towards the end of the year in an interim capacity until Easter 2024. The Tadpoles group for mothers with non-walking babies continued on a Thursday morning throughout the year. It is much appreciated, although staffing it continued to be a challenge. ## Missional Communites The many members of St Georges Missional Communities continued to value their life together, although pressures of life and family responsibilities have limited some in their activity. Members of ‘Ignite’ again participated in the United Families Christmas Dinner Project, ‘Watch this Space’ have staffed the church building for visitors, masterminded St Georges participation in catering for Dover Winter night Shelter and run a Christmas Craft Activity morning for visitors. Springboard have served the Wednesday Warm Welcome one week per month. Gatherings of various small groups within our Communities for Bible Study, prayer, shared meals and personal support have continued to be valued. A gathering for MC Core Teams was held in November, recognising and supporting the missional power of pastoral care. ‘Galilee’ Community based in Kingsdown has continued to thrive and develop under the leadership of Jo Radcliffe and Mauro Feltrin with the support of Stephen Ball. The St George’s Deal, Annual Report 5 Carpenters Arms Sandwich took a break from their regular patterns of meeting at the end of 2023, in order to review what their calling for life and mission would be for the future. ## Outreach Events The arrival of Chris and Barbs Penfold has seen some new initiatives come into being. There have been social celebration events which have gathered both St Georges members, their friends and some others from beyond the church community. These were a Eurovision evening (with a strong Ukrainian attendance!) an Abba Mamma Mia evening, and a New Year’s Eve celebration. These were great fun, and a good opportunity to build relationship with those who are not part of St Georges. In addition to the annual outdoor worship and coffee and cake give-away at the town ‘Braderie’, Chris built a team with members from other churches, to hold three ’Well-being’ events in the church garden on the High Street. This has become a significant gathering space on a Saturday morning, now that it is temporarily pedestrianised every week. These events have included hospitality in the form of coffee and cake, advice from professional physiotherapist and osteopath, a listening ear and the offer of prayer. At Pentecost, Chris led a gathering on the Pier with support from the Salvation Army, In December, working in partnership with Deal Parochial School, the Salvation Army band and friends from Community Church Deal, he coordinated a carols and mince pies event to build relationships in Stockdale Gardens in the week before Christmas. It was welcomed by the residents and went really well. As we explore God’s calling for St Georges in the years ahead, we will need to discern how these explorations in shared mission and outreach form part of our life together. ## Wednesday Warm Welcome This initiative, led by the Wednesday congregation leadership team with Springboard Missional Community grew throughout the year. Offering a light warm lunch after the Wednesday Communion service, and time to chat afterwards, it has been welcomed by a number of people in need of friendship, support and encouragement. We have received some financial support from Deal Town Council as part of the national initiative, and great cooperation with many support agencies including Community Wardens, Social Prescribers, and Age Concern. The needs of some of the participants can sometimes be challenging, but worthwhile. There can be as many as 60 people attending for the lunch. Few seem to be seeking out warm temperatures, but all are looking for a warm welcome! ## Anna Chaplaincy This ministry, seeking to meet the spiritual needs of elderly people has grown from the ministry of the Wednesday congregation and is part of the Bible Reading Fellowship’s auspices. Jean and Paul Kerr continue to lead the team of Anna Chaplains and Friends as they visit elderly people in nursing homes, their own homes and hospitals. Links with other ministries in other churches in Deal and Walmer began to develop through the year. St George’s Deal, Annual Report 6 ## Engagement with the local Community A civic service took place in October on “Charter Day’ with the Mayor and town councillors recognising St Georges place as the Civic church, and a key part of the town’s community. Our ministry of supporting and celebrating local community continued as we hosted a number of concerts throughout the year, and the intensive Deal Festival in July, with many performances in the church over a 10 day period. ## Wider church relatonships We continue to be a ‘family member’ of the Kairos Connexion, with its focus on disciplemaking, church planting and evangelism. A team attended the National Teams gathering in February, and benefited from an online training day in the autumn. Chris Spencer continued to value being to be part of a peer-mentoring huddle with the director, Nick Harding. We are part of the New Wine network, with a number of people attending the East Kent celebration at SMB in Canterbury in January, and the United Event at Detling Showground in the summer. We are members of the Evangelical Alliance. Ecumenical relationships had dwindled before the Covid Pandemic, but have begun to recover with Chris Penfold working to rebuild relationships between Ministers and churches through prayer and shared outreach. Chris Spencer continues to be Area Dean, working with local Anglican churches as part of the Sandwich Deanery. ## Visits from Mission Partners Manu and Abi Moldenhauer visited us in June and brought their usual challenging encouragement from their pioneer mission of evangelism, disciple-making and church planting in Madrid. Amy and Kody Friessen also visited in June as they move from Turkey back to Canada for a while in their missionary calling to Iranians in Turkey. Whilst not mission partners as such, we were pleased to host David and Benita Bauer for three weeks in March, before David began his first post as a parish priest in the Lutheran church in Southern Germany. ## Prayer for the future In our time of waiting, another verse from Ephesians 3 became important to us to take us into the year ahead: v 16-17 _I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being,_ _**[17 ]** so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith_ . ## **Church electoral roll and average Sunday attendance** At the Annual Meeting, there were 145 persons on the Church Electoral Roll, many of whom are not resident within the parish. The parish mainly encompasses the town centre of Deal and since St. George’s is a network church, many members live outside the parish. The Usual Weekly attendance based on October attendance was 191 adults and 13 children/young people under 16. St George’s Deal, Annual Report 7 ## **Parochial Church Council** The full PCC met six times during the year with an average level of attendance of 80 per cent. Committees and working groups met between meetings and minutes of those deliberations were received by the full PCC and discussed where necessary. In addition, regular meetings of staff were held for day-to-day management issues. ## **Resourcing the vision** Many members of St George’s give regularly through the planned giving scheme. We also held two Gift Days in 2023. Overall, the church accounts show a small surplus for the year of £9,450. We are very thankful to God for his provision and for the generosity of so many in the church. The PCC continues to plan to meet expenditure on an annual basis, using reserves strategically to fund ministry staffing costs, and church upkeep. As in previous years, the vision of St George’s has been to become a church made up of Missional Communities supported by a Central Church base. We are networked with other churches in the UK as part of the Kairos Connexion (which has grown out of St. Thomas, Philadelphia, Sheffield). One of the church’s values is ‘All involved in ministry’ and staff appointments are made to resource and support the wider ministry of every member of the church. ## **Buildings** The upkeep of buildings, particularly St. George’s and Hardman halls has meant constant minor ongoing repairs. No significant repairs were completed to either the church building, the halls or Hope House in 2021, however the Quinquennial report has been received and works are taking place. A new 5 year lease on Hope House was agreed in January with the Diocese of Canterbury. We are grateful to Adrian Friend who tends the Church gardens which continues to look beautiful and well cared for. ## **Deanery Synod** All licenced clergy (Vicar and Associate Minister) and 2 members of the PCC sit on Sandwich deanery synod. St Georges Treasurer Trevor Longman is Deanery Treasurer, and Rev. Chris Spencer is Area Dean. The Synod met on three occasions in the year ## **Risk Management** The following risks to which the PCC is exposed have begun to be considered and procedures designed to manage those risks are either in the process of being established or are already established. St George’s Deal, Annual Report 8 ## **Financial Risk** Since 2010, we have had a second Treasurer in order to share the responsibility for our finances. The Standing Committee acts as a Buildings and Finance committee, and once a term, monitors financial income and expenditure. We continue to seek to balance income and expenditure to minimise the need to make transfers from reserves. ## **Statutory and legal requirements** These include production of a Health and Safety policy, and the PCC has agreed to adopt ACAS standards for all employment matters. The current procedures are all available in the Church Office. Full insurance cover is provided by Ecclesiastical Insurance Ltd. ## **Safeguarding** The PCC appoints a Safeguarding Officer and agrees Safeguarding Policy in accordance with Diocesan Guidelines. The adoption of the Diocesan policy was agreed at the July meeting. Sue Fotheringham is Safeguarding Officer, and Rev Ben Forbes was Parish Disclosure officer until May 2023. Sue Barritt took over this role in October 2023. Rev. Jean Kerr is Assistant Parish Safeguarding Officer, with particular responsibility for vulnerable adults and the Anna Chaplaincy. The PCC Safeguarding group has taken on responsibility for updating policies and procedures to ensure the PCC conforms with Church of England Safeguarding standards. This has been chaired by a member of the PCC, Jacob Ball, since its formation in December 2023. Sue Fotheringham and Jean Kerr have formed a Safeguarding team to meet three times a year to discuss and review practical implementation of safeguarding policy. Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility, and basic online training provided by the Diocese is available to everyone. Appropriate safeguarding training is required for all church officers, including PCC members, all those working with children, young people and vulnerable adults, and other positions of responsibility. A full safeguarding report to be presented at the APCM is also available on request from the Secretary. Approved by the PCC on 4[th] March 2024 and signed on their behalf by Revd. Christopher Spencer (PCC Chair) St George’s Deal, Annual Report 9 ## **ST GEORGE'S PCC** ## **Annual Financial Report of the Parochial Church Council for the year ending 31 December 2023** ## **AUDIT** St George’s annual accounts for the financial year January to December 2023 have been subject to “Independent Examination” by SHPD Accountants and the “Balance Sheet” and the “Statement of Financial Activities” are shown on pages 6 & 7 of this report. The “Summary of Activities for the Year 2023”, on page 5 below, gives details of income and expenditure for the year and comparison with 2022. The Independent Examiner’s report, “Financial Statements of the PCC, 2023”, contains full details of the income and expenditure for the year and is available to St George’s members on request. ## **INCOME 2023** ## **Regular PCC Income** Regular PCC Income was £245,760 for the year, a decrease of £3,273 on the 2022 figure. Income from all voluntary giving, including Appeals and Gift Aid tax reclaims, totalled £196,878, a reduction of £12,356 on the amount for 2022, and £10,571 (5%) under the budget set for the year. This budget deficit is mainly due to having only one main gift day in 2023. Our other main source of income, from the hiring of the church and halls, plus car parking, totalled £40,305; an increase of £7,261 on 2022, and £13,800 (52%) over the budget set for the year. Income for church groups; i.e. evangelism, Youth & Children’s work, training costs, hospitality, etc. totalled £1,134 for the year. Dividends of £5,613 were received from the C of E Investment Fund, equating to approximately 3.0% interest for the year. Dividends were paid into the current account. Additional income from copying, PCC fees and audio/visual was £1,830. ## **Supplementary PCC Income** ## General Grants A grant was received in December from Dover District Councill for Warm Spaces but, as this was for 2024 planned expenditure, it was accrued to 2024 and not included in the 2023 accounts. No other grants were received in 2023. ## Bequests & Legacies A bequest of £1000 was received from the estate of Yvonne Goode and £9,655 from Brian Stevens. The PCC agreed that this should be reserved for use towards the cost of Youth, Children & Families ministry. ## Trust Income A disbursement of £26,000 was received from the Harrison Trust, which is the final major disbursement from the Trust. £10,000 was kept in the current account to pay for church upkeep and £16,000 was invested in a C of E Deposit account. ## Other Income Interest on our reserve savings accounts totalled £1,642 for the year. _Page 1 of 8_ _St Georges, Deal, Annual Finance Report 2023_ ## **Total Church Income** The total PCC income for 2023 was therefore £284,057, a decrease of £50,595 on 2022 (when a disbursement of £80,000 was received from the Harrison Trust) ## **The C of E Investment Fund** There were no movements in Investment Fund shares in 2023. At 31[st] December, the fund “share price” was 9.5% up on the previous year and our total fund value totalled £205,344, which is £17,800 (9.5%) above the total purchase price of the “shares”. ## **EXPENDITURE 2023** ## **Regular Church Expenditure** Expenditure for regular church running costs and activities totalled £259,372 in 2023, an increase of £35,750 on the 2022 figure. This was £30,011 (10.6%) under the budget set for the year. There were savings on budget for salaries & staff costs of £32,700; mainly due to the Senior Administrator and Caretaker not commencing until December, plus the proposed Youth & Families Ministers not being engaged. Other below budget cost groups were Training & Discipleship (£2,700) plus Youth & Children’s’ work (£1,800). ## **Supplementary PCC Expenditure** The second year of the Hope House lease was £4,500. This is accounted for at £4,500 per year over the 5-year term of the lease, 2022 to 2026. An initial payment of £9,000 was made for the church boiler replacement. £4,500 was paid in legal & professional services dealing with the sale of St George’s Hall. ## **Total Church Expenditure** The total PCC expenditure for 2023 was £277,372, an increase of £47,200 on the 2022 figure. ## **Transfers to/from Reserves** Due to excess funds in the current account and the £26,000 disbursement from the Harrison Trust, £46,000 was transferred into reserves in the first part of 2023. In December, £13,500 was transferred back to the current account to cover the cost of the new boilers and legal & professional services, shown above,. ## **ANNUAL BALANCE OF ACCOUNT** Regular income for the year was £13,612 below expenditure. However, with supplementary income and expenditure included, there was a net funds surplus of £6,685 at the end of the year. _St Georges, Deal, Annual Finance Report 2023 Page 2 of 8_ ## **STEWARDSHIP** The PCC actively encourages the use of planned giving schemes in order to receive a steady flow of income allowing St George's to readily meet its financial commitments. In December 2023 there were 126 persons or families who regularly contributed to the planned giving scheme, down 5 donors (net) from 2022. The donors include 102 tax efficient givers plus 24 non gift aid donors. In 2023, planned giving from church members totalled nearly £164,600, a reduction of £4,400 on 2022 and £4,000 below the budget set for the year. During 2023, the PCC agreed that St George’s needed to move away from the three annual gift day appeals and encourage members to increase or start donating regularly to match donations given at the gift days. Future gift days could then be held to support specific projects or mission. St George’s therefore held just one gift day at Easter 2023, when nearly £12,000 was raised, including gift aid. A Stewardship Focus was then held in November, at which time church members were encouraged to increase their giving, as described above, and to change their method of giving to the “Parish Giving Scheme”, which significantly reduces the administration of collating donors’ giving and collecting gift aid. The results of the Stewardship Focus were to gain 8 new regular donors and to potentially increase regular giving, with gift aid, by £17,000 per year. In addition, a further £8,260 was received in oneoff donations. By the end of the year, about 25% of our regular donors had changed over to the Parish Giving Scheme. A big thank you to all donors for their valuable support. ## **RESERVES POLICY** It is the PCC’s policy to invest reserve capital in CCLA or CAF deposit accounts or the CCLA Church of England Investment Fund; all of which are considered secure investments. At the beginning of 2023, the CAF deposit account was closed and funds were moved into two new CCLA deposit accounts to gain a better rate of interest. Excess funds in the current account were also moved into these accounts. It is also the PCC’s policy to, when necessary, use capital from the Doris Salter Bequest to support regular church expenditure on mission and outreach. If support is required for church maintenance and upkeep, in particular major repairs and renewals, the Harrison Fund and Eastes Bequest are used. It is the PCC’s intention that a minimum of two months regular expenditure is held in reserve to cover future shortfalls. Ultimately, the reserves of the church reside with its members, not just the funds in the church accounts. We propose that if and when the level of the total useable church reserves in all unrestricted funds approaches a sum equal to three months regular expenditure, urgent action will be taken to alert the church members to prayer and generosity. We are confident that capital held in St George’s reserve funds will cover any planned annual budget deficits for a minimum of four years, at the present rate of use. Full details of the church reserves is shown on page 8 below. _St Georges, Deal, Annual Finance Report 2023 Page 3 of 8_ ## **GIVING FOR MISSION** As in previous years, St George’s gave over 10% of the annual church voluntary income to mission and charitable purposes, plus other amounts raised by special appeals. In 2023 the total church giving was £22,867; a list of major recipients is given below. ## **Mission and Charitable Giving Recipients – 2023** |**Tearfund**
