TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT

Aims and Purposes

To promote the whole mission of the Church – pastoral, social and ecumenical.

Background

St Gabriel’s is a suburban parish in the Heaton area of Newcastle upon Tyne (and forms part of the Newcastle East Deanery). The larger proportion of the housing within the parish dates from the early part of the 20[th] century and consists of terrace houses some of which are Tyneside flats. There are areas of more modern housing and some social student housing. There is a healthy blend of students, young families and retired people in the community.

The Church is a stone built Grade II listed building dating from 1899. Its tower forms a landmark at the corner of Heaton Road and St Gabriel’s Avenue. The Church building is kept open on weekdays for most months of the year for use by those who wish to visit and pray.

The Parish Centre adjacent to the church provides a space for various parish and community activities including the Parish Office. A number of rooms are let to various individuals, groups and charities principally CRUSE counselling.

Mission Statement

'St. Gabriel’s seeks through God’s grace to serve the people of the parish in which it is set by being:

A place of prayer.

A welcoming community.

A prophetic voice speaking truth to power.

Open to the stranger, the marginalised and oppressed. Concerned for all creation and its protection and sustainability.

Fully committed to working together with people of faith and all in the local community for the common good.

Vicar’s Report

If you had told me a few years ago that I might be moved to tears by the reintroduction of congregational singing in public worship, I would have wondered what you were talking about. But 2021 was a year when some of what had been taken away was given back. Churches were permitted to stay open despite restrictions and eventually congregational singing was allowed again: and what a Sunday that was when it happened! In the meantime, St. Gabriel’s, as ever, adapted. We made the tough decision to stay open, when most local churches chose to close, and for a time the congregation was greatly diminished in number. But there was also great resourcefulness, and whenever permitted we had either solo singers or a choir of a certain number of voices. As such, the services continued to be joyful celebrations and we also broadcast services on Facebook until covid restrictions ended in the summer. This could only have been made possible because of the excellent team of people at St. Gabriel’s who made it happen.

In 2021, James Bartle was recommended for ordination training, and started his priestly formation at Cranmer Hall in Durham in the autumn, bringing to three the number of the congregation now in training for ordination. St. Gabriel’s also hosted a confirmation at Michaelmas, and Bishop Mark Wroe presided, confirmed and preached at the Patronal Festival, where two young people and five adults were confirmed from this parish, as well as two adults from the Parish of St. Mary Magdalene, Longbenton. At the Annual Parochial Church Meeting we elected a full membership to the PCC for the first time in many years. The church being open for worship at every opportunity has borne fruit and there have been a substantial number of new people at St. Gabriel’s, including Stephanie McLaughlin, who was elected churchwarden following James’ resignation from that office.

We have been fortunate this last year not only to benefit from the ministry of Alan and Sheila but also from Father Jon Cooper, who has regularly preached and presided, and made his home at St. Gabriel’s along with Sally his wife. We have also been blessed by Scott Gardiner who was on placement from Cranmer Hall, and his wife Donna and son Theo. Over the year we have had a gradual return of weddings and baptisms.

In February 2021, Margaret Hogarth died, who had been a faithful member of St. Gabriel’s congregation, vicar’s secretary and then parish administrator and secretary to the Mothers’ Union branch at St. Gabriel’s. She is greatly missed by many of us.

Two building projects have continued to germinate in the last year: one that involves the rewiring and relighting of the church, whilst the other involves the refurbishment of the church toilets. A great deal of work is going into both projects as well as significant investment, and both require a faculty. Also this last year the majority of the quinquennial works were completed, although this revealed a box gutter in between the church and choir vestry that was totally rotten and needed to be replaced.

As the church has emerged out of enforced hibernation, much has come back to life, with new groups using the choir vestry and all the tenants have returned to the parish centre. As such our income has recovered, and with the help of a covid grant of £10,000 from Newcastle City Council, we were able to pay a contribution of £80,000 to the Diocese for the parish share: a quite remarkable achievement considering the year that has been. A bake sale was arranged for Valentine’s Day and holiday packs were again distributed in the Easter holidays.

One of the things that St. Gabriel’s offered during the lockdowns was to be a refuge and space for musicians. The Chilli Road band rehearsed in the church garden, local musicians rehearsed in the church and the People’s Theatre used the garden for a production of Midsummer’s Night Dream, with Tim Burke providing a choir for the production. All of this cemented ever deeper relationships not only with the local community but also with local musicians and actors. The Northern Symphonia Chorus even rehearsed in the church garden! A lot of work also went into the church gardens, and in particular the wild garden which is being developed by a local resident. We also received our first beehive!

Alan White was ordained on 3rd July at St. George’s, Jesmond and presided at the Eucharist for the first time the next day at St. Gabriel’s. Afterwards we had a party! It was lovely to return to communal events such as the Summer and Christmas Fayre’s, and as ever large amounts of money have been raised this last year for charity. Also founded this last year was the Friends of St. Gabriel’s, which Anne Pickering has put a great deal of energy and enthusiasm into. We also appointed our first organ scholar: the scholarship having been very generously paid for by a benefactor.

The year came to a conclusion with an Advent trail through Heaton of knitted sheep placed in shop windows and community buildings, with the sheep being collected up for the crib service and then given to those who attended. The Christmas services were really spectacular and it was so exciting to return to a full celebration after the rather restricted celebrations of the year before.

St. Gabriel’s is a very exciting place to minister. It is full of surprises, and I’m often taken aback by the extraordinary people God brings to us here. The challenge of course is how to create an environment where everyone can flourish and where they can use their gifts and talents for the good of all. There are many examples of that at St. Gabriel’s, but for me one of the most potent is what is happening with music, where people of all ages and ability are being drawn to the musical life of St. Gabriel’s. It is extraordinary to witness.

And the dance goes on. Thanks be to God.

The Rev’d Fr. Jonathan Lawson

Vicar

Fabric, Goods and Ornaments

This was a changing year for Churchwardens, as James Bartle left to train for the priesthood and we thanked him for the substantial contribution he had made to St Gabriel’s in many ways. Stephanie McLaughlin was appointed as his successor in October 2021.

The majority of the quinquennial works were completed this year which mainly involved replacing missing slates on the church roof. The work also revealed a rotten box gutter between the choir vestry and the Church.

We had the Choir Vestry professionally cleaned and the curtains were washed and are ready to be re-hung. Willing volunteers also buffed the Church floor!

We were very grateful to receive the gift of a new thurible for use in the church.

The gardens proved an extremely welcoming place for the people of Heaton and local groups during Lockdown, we hosted other Guiding groups, a steel band’s rehearsals and a place for people to meet and chat. We have had gifts of more outdoor furniture which is greatly appreciated.

Most importantly St Gabriel’s remained open as much as legally possible during 2021, whilst other churches closed during the Pandemic and we thank Father Jonathan for his leadership and commitment to this. As a result, we welcomed new members to our congregation.

We are now back to full opening, often with fifteen services a week and new ventures such as the Julian Meeting and a return to twice monthly Evensongs.

The development of music continues to be a cause for celebration. We have an Organ Scholar and a wonderful choir, thanks to Tim Burke.

Social events have also taken place and the Summer and Winter fairs were very successful with a great effort from the Missions Committee, the congregation and support from the people of Heaton.

We continue to grow the Church along with Heaton Churches Together and thank God for all the blessings he gives us.

St Gabriel’s Heaton - Safeguarding

This statement was adopted by St Gabriel’s Parish at a Parochial Church Council meeting held on 20th September 2018 and is reviewed each year by the Parochial Church Council and reaffirmed at the Annual Meeting.

Safeguarding Policy Statement of the Church of England

The Church of England, its Archbishops, Bishops, clergy and leaders are committed to safeguarding as an integral part of the life and ministry of the Church.

Safeguarding means the action the Church takes to promote a safer culture. This means we will promote the welfare of children, young people and adults, work to prevent abuse from occurring, seek to protect those that are at risk of being abused and respond well to those that have been abused.

We will take care to identify where a person may present a risk to others, and offer support to them whilst taking steps to mitigate such risks.

The Church of England affirms the ‘Whole Church’ approach to safeguarding. This approach encompasses a commitment to consistent policy and practice across all Church bodies, Church Officers and that everyone associated with the Church, who comes into contact with children, young people and adults, has a role to play.

The Church will take appropriate steps to maintain a safer environment for all and to practice fully and positively Christ’s Ministry towards children, young people and adults; to respond sensitively and compassionately to their needs in order to help keep them safe from harm.

St Gabriel’s Safeguarding Policy

We are committed to care for one another safely and recognise that everyone has different levels of vulnerability and that each of us may be regarded as at risk at some time in our lives. We are committed to:

It is the responsibility of each of us to prevent physical, emotional, sexual, financial and spiritual abuse.

If you have any safeguarding concerns please inform the parish safeguarding officer or a member of the clergy as quickly as possible.
