Minutes of the Annual Church Meeting held on Thursday 30[th] June 2022
| Tavistock and Horrabridge – many of which are run or supported by Ali and TMC members. These are: Stronger Together – ladies’ drop-in group at TMC Food Hub in Tavistock Settling of 29 Ukrainian families in Tavistock. Ukraine language classes held at TMC Use of caravan for holidays for Ukrainian families – 5 weeks already booked. Tweens & Teens on a Tuesday in Horrabridge Horrabridge Repair Café Enough people willing to form a new church community in Horrabridge. The Horrabridge work is a mission supported by the whole Circuit which has a lot of support from this Church. |
||
|---|---|---|
| 12. | Reports from the life of the church (as distributed prior to the meeting) Catalyst –a third Catalyst worker is hoped to be joining next year. Two new SWYM workers were prayed for during last week’s service. Thanks to Geoff Orton Circuit –nothing to add Communications and Digital –good new mission work here. Numbers on social media/YouTube impressive. Need more help with tech teams, especially sound Eco-Church –nothing to add to report. It was agreed that Harvest Festival should be held to coincide with Big Green Week. Steve congratulated the meeting on the Silver Eco Award and the wild flower meadow at TMC. Contact Groups –Neil Wylie mentioned he’s more committed to the work in Horrabridge so is standing down from leading the Contact Groups.The meeting agreed to David and Valerie Norman taking on this role.Steve thanked Neil for all his work over the years. Neil stressed he would still be involved at TMC. Family Work management –nothing to add Family work –nothing to add FAST –Margaret Smith reported that the head of mission is now out of hospital, but needs lots of rehab. Please pray for healing. All the accommodation that would normally be kept free for teams from UK to stay are being used to house Ukrainian refugees which is why we are unable to go out at the moment. Steve explained what FAST’s mission is. Finance –Neil Tamblin (Treasurer) reported that the projected loss is based on decreased giving and increased expenditure – mostly items that we have to pay, such as Assessment, wages, heating etc. This projected loss is why the recent letter and updated Money Matters leaflet have been sent out. Discussion followed as to the way forward. This included: • Do people understand the need to give? • Do people know how to give? Not obvious as the collection is not taken during the service – put something in the weekly update explaining the various ways people can give • Making the Treasurer aware of any expenditure in advance so he can budget • Fundraising event? • Giving Sunday? • A QR code sticker on the back of each chair which will link directly to the giving page on the TMC website We need to talk more about money and the way God’s work can be advance through giving. The Stewards are aware of the financial situation. Network –nothing to add Pastoral –nothing to add to report. Thanks were expressed to Steve for all his pastoral work whilst he’s been with us. Property –Peter Rowe is now Chair of the Property Committee. He mentioned that the pillar where the lime render has come off is a continuingworry. We are still hopingtoget |

| the LH and stair carpet fitted in the first two weeks of August, but the type of carpet most suitable is still being resolved. Deborah Bevan reported that the patio is a work in progress. The entrance to the LH is being looked at, following a wheelchair user being unable to get in without help. Peter asked that any property matters should be flagged up. If we don’t know about it, we can put it right. Please contact Peter Rowe and Iris Wright. Safeguarding –in the absence of David Benzie, Steve reminded the meeting that the new Safeguarding policy needs to be agreed at the September meeting. This will need to be reported to District who will report to the wider connexion. Stewards –thanks were expressed (in her absence) to Pam Wylie for her stint as Senior Steward for a second time. Thanks also expressed (again in her absence) to Eunice Weemys for doing an extra year as steward. The meeting approved the following stewarding appointments, as proposed by Rob Palmer: Jennifer Youé as Senior Steward Kathy Watts as a new steward The meeting also approved Andy Marsh as full steward (he has been acting for the last year). Steve thanked all the stewards for their hard work and attitude of prayer – they are God- centered. Worship –Steve mentioned how good it was to have Andrew Jones heading this committee. Andrew said that it would be good to have more members of the worship teams. There is a library of pre-recorded songs if needed. Youth work –Trudi was unable to attend, but Steve stressed how much the work is appreciated. Zimbabwe –there are 11 riders for the Tour de Circuit so far. More sponsors would be appreciated. Steve thanked everyone for the work that goes in to keeping TMC going. The work that the volunteers do for God is amazing. Tithing is too restrictive – we are called to give 100%. Joan Gosling said how precious the Saturday morning prayers have been. Please join. The Spirit is at work. Rob Palmer expressed the meeting’s thanks to Steve. It has been a privilege and pleasure to work with him. Hegoes with ourprayers and thanks. |
