## **OBJECTS AND CONSTITUTION**
The Parish of St Denys, Lisvane, in the Cardiff Deanery, is part of the Diocese of Llandaff within the Church in Wales. The parish is situated to the north of Cardiff, east of Llanishen and adjoining the Diocese of Monmouth.
The church address is:-
The Church in Wales St Denys Church Church Road Lisvane CARDIFF CF14 0SJ
The Church in Wales is a province within the Anglican Communion and, as such, exists to advance the Christian Religion through worldwide mission. The object of the Parochial Church Council is to ensure that the Life and work of the Church within the Parish helps to fulfil that mission, both locally and more widely.
The P.C.C. is not a body corporate. Its composition, procedure, and powers are regulated by the Constitution of the Church in Wales, as amended from time to time by its Governing Body, set up under Section 13(1) of the Welsh Church Acts 1914. Elections are held at an Annual Vestry Meeting which must take place on or before 30[th] April. All persons whose names are entered on the Electoral Roll are entitled to vote and stand for election. Before assuming office, every member of the Council must sign a declaration that he or she will be bound by the Constitution.
The Representative Body of the Church in Wales holds the land and property of the Church in Wales, including St. Denys’ Church building, its contents and the churchyard. The Representative Body is an Exempt Charity and was set up under Section 13(2) of the Welsh Church Acts 1914. It acts on behalf of the Province in paying the stipends of full time clergy, and administers the Church in Wales scheme of Gift Aid giving and recovers tax on behalf of parishes. The P.C.C. is responsible inter alia for promoting the mission of the church, the parochial budget and all expenditure there under, the care and maintenance of the church fabric and of the churchyard, and for action on any other matter referred to it in accordance with the Constitution.
The Council is also the normal channel of communication between the parishioners and the Bishop of the Diocese.
It is the responsibility of both the P.C.C. and the Incumbent to work together and co-operate in all matters of concern and importance in the parish for the promotion of the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic and ecumenical in the parish.

## **VICAR’S REPORT**
## **A Review of the Year**
2021 proved to be another challenging year. The resurgence of the virus at the beginning of the year meant that we closed the doors of our building in January and February. Services continued on Zoom and it was a joy to be able to worship together even if we couldn’t gather physically. The 9.30am service began to meet again in the church building in March but the 11.00am service had to be more cautious because of the larger numbers. However, over the summer we were able to hold our 11.00am service in the churchyard. Being outside gave the services something of a festival atmosphere but above all it meant that we were able to gather in larger numbers than we had done since the start of the pandemic, and were also able to witness to the wider community. Sadly, for various reasons, including failing health and the loss of some members through the pandemic, it has not been feasible to start the 8.00am service again and so we continue with just two main services on a Sunday, the times of which were changed to 9.15am and 10.45am part way through the year.
The prayer meeting and the home groups continued to be a source of great spiritual encouragement through tough times. In our Boiler Room prayer meetings we prayed through Open Doors’ World Watch List (a list of the 50 countries where the church is most persecuted) and in our home groups the highlight has to have been reading through Dane Ortlund’s _Gentle and Lowly_ which provides perceptive and powerful insights into the heart of Jesus towards sinners and sufferers.
We continued to work with the community in Lisvane where possible. It was great to welcome TreeTops back for their annual nativity service and to raise nearly £8,000 for LATCH through our Advent Trail in partnership with the community. The Trail ran throughout December and was due to culminate in the Crib Services on Christmas Eve when the 24th window would have been unveiled but, frustratingly, the emergence of the Omicron variant meant that we had to cancel most of our Christmas services at very short notice. However, we were still able to do some carol singing around Lisvane instead.
We have always been committed to supporting Christian mission and other charities at St Denys. This year we took a step to developing our support by forming a Missions and Giving Committee who are tasked with selecting which charities and mission agencies we should support through the year. The aim is to strengthen our links with those whom we support and help them by ensuring they have a regular income stream from us rather than ad hoc annual payments.
Throughout the year it has been wonderful to see how Ali Jensen and her team have managed to keep the youth and children’s work not just going but growing! Their creativity in putting on an exciting range of events that have complied with the ever-changing restrictions and the consistent hard work behind it all has been
6

Year ended 31 December 2021
tremendous. Ali has also been working hard providing recorded assemblies for Llysfaen Primary School even when physical access was not permitted.
We are hugely indebted to Martyn and the choir who have had to cope with even more stringent conditions because of the risk of transmission via aerosol. It was wonderful to be able to have the choir for our Easter celebrations, even if they were somewhat muted because of Covid and it was a great shame to have to cancel some of our key Christmas services. I am very grateful to them for their flexibility and understanding.
The Pastoral Care Team has continued to do sterling work. Jan Marsden has suffered from a very painful back problem and I’m so grateful to Helen Warner for helping to lead it when Jan was incapacitated.
Linda Ashmore stepped down as treasurer in June and Anne Gregory kindly offered to take her place, although this is only an interim appointment as Anne will not be able to serve as treasurer for more than 2 years. I am very grateful to Linda for all that she did to maintain good accounts throughout her time in office and to Anne who has worked enormously hard getting up to speed with the accounts. The introduction of the MA means that we will now be using My Fund Accounting software and I am grateful to Anne and Denise for their flexibility and willingness to try out this new software package.
In September we saw the installation of the Ven Rod Green as Archdeacon of Llandaff. This appointment was one we prayed about a great deal as a church and it has been a joy to get to know Rod and to see the impact he is already having in the diocese.
This year has seen the passing of two pillars of the church, George and Joyce Davies. Although they were already in Sunrise when I was appointed to St Denys, and George’s dementia was fairly advanced, it was a joy to get to know them and very sad that their final two years should be have been in a nursing home in lockdown but we take great comfort that they are now with their Lord and Saviour. This year also saw the untimely death of Rhodri de Lloyd (David de Lloyd’s nephew), a father of two in his 40s. Our thoughts and prayers were with the de Lloyd family as they came to terms with this tragic event.
## **Looking Ahead**
The formation of the North Cardiff Ministry Area on 1st January 2022 (from the former parishes of Lisvane, Llanishen and Roath Park) necessitated a very significant amount of preparatory work throughout 2021 as the legal, governance and financial structure of the new North Cardiff Ministry Area was laid down. I am enormously grateful to the Ministry Area Transition Team who met regularly through the year and to everyone from St Denys who served on that committee. It was really positive to see the four churches work so well together and a sign of great things to come.
The restructuring of the church into the MA has also meant that the PCC was dissolved on the 31st December. Thank you to all those who gave their time so generously, some over many years, to serve the church in this way. The PCC will now be replaced

by a smaller Church Committee. Steve Brunker was also due to step down at the end of the year after a long stint of 6 years as churchwarden. He kindly agreed to stay on until his replacement was appointed at the beginning of 2022. As a church we are hugely indebted to Steve for all that he has done to serve the church so assiduously over such a long period. He will be missed.
Above all, the restructuring of our church life will provide an opportunity to refocus our energies on our mission, and especially our primary call to share the good news of Jesus with our friends, neighbours and colleagues. Under the new structures our aim is to establish a series of action groups which focus on different aspects of our ministry and mission. These groups will report to the Church Committee but anyone within the church will be eligible to serve on them. In particular, we will have action groups focussing on: Evangelism and Outreach, Discipleship and Prayer, Liturgy and Worship, Children and Youth, Pastoral Care, Social Events. Our focus initially will be twofold: to encourage people back to church and strengthen our sense of being a church family and to reach out to the community with the love of Christ. As a springboard to developing ideas for mission we will participate in the CPAS Leading Evangelism Online Learning Hub as an MA with each church represented. Let’s take up William Carey’s motto: “Expect great things from God. Attempt great things for God.”
A key aspect of our mission going forward will be the new Church House Development, the demolition having been completed earlier in the year. It has been a great encouragement to see it gradually going up, although Covid has brought inevitable delays as materials have been difficult to source at times. We look forward to completion in summer 2022, ready to open in time for the beginning of the new academic year. I am indebted to the Steering Group for all that they have done to see the project through to this point, and especially Martin Plow whose work behind the scenes has been tireless.
Once again, it has in many ways been a difficult year but as Jeremiah reminds us, the ground of our hope is not our circumstances but God’s never-failing compassion. And so, we press on trusting Him, seeking His will and His plans and purposes for us and for our Ministry Area. If the Lord builds the house, the labourers will not have laboured in vain.

## **ELECTORAL ROLL AND CHURCH ATTENDANCE**
Since January 2020, the electoral roll has had to be renewed twice.
At EVM 2019 the roll had 186 members. After a couple of campaigns for renewal, the roll at Easter 2021 had reduced slightly to 169 members.
However, following the setting up of the new Ministry Area for North Cardiff in January, Church in Wales asked that we create an electoral roll for North Cardiff Ministry Area and this meant asking everyone in St Denys, St Isan's, St Faiths and Christchurch to fill in new electoral roll forms. This was completed by the beginning of May when the numbers on the roll for St Denys had reduced further to 123.
The attendance figures from the service registers have now been harvested for the years 2020 and 2021. It is not easy to draw any firm conclusions from these statistics.
In 2019 average weekly attendances were 101. This rate of attendance seems to have continued during the first weeks of 2020 until the church closed after 15th March. After the church re-opened in September, a total of 257 attendances are recorded in the thirteen weeks that the church was open, averaging just under twenty per week. This was owing to a significant reduction in the numbers of services and the restricted numbers permitted to attend.
At the start of the following year 2021, the church was closed for a further eight weeks, but reopened on 7th March and remained open for the rest of the year. The total attendances for the year were around 1900, significantly below the total numbers attending in 2019 at over 5000, so there is still a hill to climb in re-establishing our historic levels. Of course during lockdown many acts of worship took place on Zoom, but there are no records of the numbers involved.
I hope that, as we emerge from the shadow of the pandemic, the attendance will continue to improve and return to the encouraging levels of yesteryear.

## **CHURCHWARDEN’S REPORT**
This is the last St Denys Parish Church Warden Report that covers the period to January 1st 2022 and the first by the St Denys Committee Wardens covering 1st January 2022 to the first 2022 North Cardiff Ministry area Annual Vestry Meeting.
We have had another logistically difficult year with restrictions due to the Covid pandemic coming and going throughout. We are extremely indebted to the Reverend Jim Griffiths for working so hard to keep our services on track both in person and online. We are now mightily relieved and thank God that the majority of Sunday services and other meetings are now possible in person, hopefully relieving some of the organisational burden of the last year.
Jim has been an inspirational leader during this difficult time despite much of his effort being taken up with the formation and leadership of the North Cardiff Ministry Area which comprises of the four churches St Denys, St Faith, St Isan and Christchurch. He has been responsible for the interregnum administration at St Isan since 1st January and with the Ministry Area Lay Chair been responsible for drawing up the constitution of the new entity. With the appointment of a new incumbent starting in July some of these additional demands on his time should ease.
Our St Denys church prayer meeting, “The Boiler Room”, has continued online at 7.30 on Mondays, we, the wardens and Jim consider this to be the engine room for our church, seeking to bring God into every aspect of our lives, concerns for the world, our church and the people of both. If you would like to encourage Jim and us then regular attendance at this most important of all weekday church meetings is the way to do it. Details on the news sheet.
The wardens would like to note that during the pandemic youth and children’s work has continued and is showing real signs of growth numerically and spiritually under the enthusiastic loving care and guidance of our youth and children’s worker Ali Jensen with the invaluable help of her dedicated team which includes her husband Jan. It has been a real encouragement and joy to hear of young people turning to Jesus as their friend and guide in their lives. Ali is also leading important work in reaching out to the young in the Lisvane area through community activities and school work that points to the love that Jesus has for our community.
The war in Ukraine, and its tragic consequences, took many of us by surprise this year. Our hearts go out to the resulting bereaved, wounded and displaced people of the country. We as a church will look for ways to help them financially and practically in the coming months, praying continually for peace and a long term cessation of hostilities as with other places in our world facing war, famine and natural disasters.

Year ended 31 December 2021
Looking forward to 2022 we are looking to completion of the building project and putting this facility to good use to benefit the furtherance of the Gospel in Lisvane. We look forward to welcoming many new people in the new homes being built around us and inviting them to meet Jesus, if they don’t know him already.
We would like to thank all those who have contributed to the life of St Denys in the last year.
We always hesitate to name names but we would like to especially thank the sterling work done by our treasurer Anne Gregory, the building committee, especially Martin Plow and Denise Searle our tireless and tolerant secretary who is also now secretary to the Ministry Area.
Finally, we would like to thank Steve Brunker who stepped down from the post of vicar’s warden after many years of highly valued service to St Denys in this role, he continues to serve us on the building committee. We would like also to thank Ros, Steve’s wife, for lending him to us for such a long time. He has been a source of wise council and leadership for many of us. Camilla Owens has picked up the baton from Steve as vicar’s warden and is looking forward to supporting Jim and the church family as we seek to love Jesus and make him known together.

## **TREASURER’S REPORT**
2021 was another year of Covid, with restricted services and Zoom.
Total income for the Parish for 2021 was £180,866; (2020 £180,931).
Voluntary collections and donations was £97,262; (2020 £100,195).
Gift Aid receipts were £16,922; (2020 £15,925).
The Listed Places of Worship Grant Scheme claim brought a refund of £3,489 on the VAT paid for the tower repairs in 2020.
During the year the Parish Share Rebate of £22,320 made a large difference to the income received. The largest reduction in receipts was from the weekly envelopes and collections because of the Covid restriction to services throughout the year. St Denys Church continued to support the Ministry Support Worker throughout the year with donations received from the congregation.
A balancing figure was used last year in the accounts, this year it has been corrected.
The re-building of Church House commenced in the second half of the year, using the restricted funds held for that purpose by the CIW. The end of year balance held by the CIW was £123,635; (2020 was £327,023).
All pledges for the Church House fund held by St Denys have now been received.
Overall in 2021 there was Parish surplus of income over expenditure of £40,429, largely as a result of further restricted donations to the Church House Fund of £30,880 in the year. (2020 was a loss of £22,829).
As from 1st January 2022 St Denys Church became part of the North Cardiff Ministry Area.

## **GIFT AID SECRETARY’S REPORT**
Gift Aid is the way that the Church can augment its income by 25% in respect of donations from any person that pays personal tax to H.M. Revenue & Customs (HMRC).
The Parish received £24,186 in 2021 from Gift Aid claims so this is a very important source of income. This is detailed further below:

(*) these amounts include the up to £2,000 Gift Aid that the Church is permitted to claim annually on unidentified collections. However, in 2021, as in the previous year, this was severely reduced because the reduction in the number of services and smaller

St Denys Church Annual Vestry Report
Year ended 31 December 2021
congregations meant there were fewer unidentified collections. As a result, we were only able to claim £394.
If anyone would like to check that they have a St Denys Gift Aid form filed, or have a query on any aspect of Gift Aid, then please contact me. Also, to ensure that HMRC rules are complied with, please contact me if you change address or if personal circumstances change resulting in a gift aid donor no longer paying tax.
## **Confidentiality is assured.**
Information sheets about Gift Aid and a supply of Gift Aid forms and one-off Gift Aid envelopes can be found at the entrance to church.
## **OTHER REPORTS**
_Please note that although the Vestry Report is dated 31st December 2021 to coincide with the financial requirements, some of the group reports refer to activities up to March 2022_
## **YOUTH & CHILDREN**
Perhaps the best word to describe what has happened in the children’s and youth work in the past year is to say, it has EXPLODED!
God’s goodness to us in starting and even growing amidst 2 years of lockdown restrictions, has meant that the return of face to face saw instant and exciting growth, community, team and fun.
We had sent assemblies to Llysfaen Primary school on You Tube during lockdown and recently in returning to aide the school weekly, with year 4, several teachers specifically thanked us for those assemblies – this is so of God, because when we then ran an Easter Holiday Club for over 40 children, many community children attended who already knew who we were and many are aiming to join us in weekly clubs _MnMs_ & _(Al)mighty Boosh_ . Everything just points to God’s hand.
Further, the pebbles painted by the children’s and youth group and hidden around the village, translated into several visitors to our Easter Sunday service, swapping pebbles for chocolate eggs. All were welcomed and heard the gospel.
14
St Denys Church Annual Vestry Report
Year ended 31 December 2021
The youth work continues to grow with new enquiries from community families and a fabulous sense of community and Jesus being at the centre. We now have a full children’s and youth remit in place. Inclusive of _MnMs_ for infants, _(Al)mighty Boosh_ for juniors, _Sunday Splash_ for children _, Impact_ for younger youth, _Ablaze_ for older youth and _JarZ_ for youth on Sundays. All have teams that serve with commitment and incredible skill.
This year has seen much happen both internal to groups, through our mentoring programmes and in additional, monthly discipleship outlets. We are so encouraged to see the children and young people at the heart of church life and making spiritual steps closer to Jesus.
We have seen a host of Christmas events (Christingle service, Treetops Nativity), and inclusion of music especially with Glocks, drawing children and young people and their families into the heart of the church.
Ali Jensen Ministry Support Worker
## **ONE – All-Age Service**
The All Age services have been run so excellently for so many years. The hiatus due to covid, and then the reconfiguring of them after covid has been aided hugely by the help and guidance of skilled and experienced people like Julia Plaut.
ONE endeavours to not divert too much from our usual services, but aims to include all ages, utilising a range of learning styles and offering as many opportunities to as many ages as possible to encounter God. We have experimented with a range of models.
The lovely thing to see at All-Age services is the inclusion of a wide range of people who make the service happen, inclusive of children and youth leading the congregation in both confession and affirmation of faith, alongside, teaching that is split into 2-3 sections with object lesson, story, drama, and concise teaching. We see more families attend on Sundays when Sunday Splash and all- age provision is included.
## **CHURCH HOUSE**
So much has happened in the last year, after so many years of planning, discussion, debate and decision making. Covid had a major impact not only on the physical building
15
St Denys Church Annual Vestry Report
Year ended 31 December 2021
but also on the continuing planning, with Steering Group meetings taking place via Zoom.
A year ago, we had finalised the old Church House demolition and the builders had set a start date. However, certain issues were highlighted at this point including extra work for underpinning and drainage/soakaway complications. In addition, the original contractors, Messrs Merryless, ceased trading and we had to arrange new contractors, Trafalgar Services Ltd, in a very short timeframe. Trafalgar SL were able to offer the same terms as the original contractors and after due diligence were appointed. Consequently, the building works did not commence until August 2021, some five months later than anticipated.
Whilst all this was going on the Steering Group arranged the VAT issue so that no VAT was paid on the build, as we are a charity.
Since August, all groundworks have been completed, and Church House has been built up to roof level, with the final roof tiles ready to be applied imminently.
Since the start of 2022, poor weather conditions, coupled with shortages of materials and transport issues have led to additional delays. However, project completion is still August/September 2022.
The Steering Group meet every 4-6 weeks to appraise progress and ensure budgeting remains focused. Currently, we are anticipating a shortfall of funds to complete the building project of about £25k. We are currently reviewing possible grant support for fitting out various parts of the building once complete.
We cannot wait until the building is complete, fitted out and available to all the User groups that have already shown strong interest.

## **WEDNESDAY MORNING EUCHARIST**
Our Wednesday Morning Eucharist resumed on 16 June 2021 until 16 July. After a summer break, it was wonderful to be back on 15 September. We are enjoying our Service and then meeting friends old and new for coffee and a chat. Our thanks to Jim.

## **CHOIR**
The difficulties we experienced in 2020 have continued into 2021, with no singing apart from some services at Easter. There was then a further period of lock down and services continued on zoom with no choir, no singing. We saw an improvement towards September where we returned to having some limited choir practices, and were able to prepare for the annual Carol Service in December. Sadly, this had to be cancelled at the last minute due again to covid-19.
Throughout the year we have again been regularly in touch on a weekly basis meeting socially as and when allowable.. Fortunately since January we are now back rehearsing weekly and singing services as near to normal as possible. Our commitment has not wavered and members are as loyal as ever in maintaining our usual standards.
Martyn Ridge, Choir master
## **THE PARADISE RUN**
Elizabeth Perret-Atkins came to speak to both services in February to update us on the work of Rainbow of Hope. During the pandemic, Cardiff City Council stopped groups going on the Paradise Run to distribute sandwich packs and serve hot food to the homeless and vulnerable of Cardiff. St Denys had been part of this outreach for many years with our monthly Sunday evening slot.
All activities are now based at the Rainbow of Hope premises in Broadway, Roath. . All food served has to be freshly prepared in the kitchens of Rainbow of Hope - we are no longer able to make dishes at home and serve up at the premises.
We still maintain links with Rainbow of Hope by attending meetings and circulating updates about specific requests from Liz. If anyone feels they can spare a few hours a week to volunteer, they would be very welcome.
If you would like to find out more information please get in touch with Liz. The easiest way to get in touch is via text – 07584 044364.r email info@rainbowofhope.co.uk

## **THE HUGGARD COMMITTEE**
The aim of our committee is to raise funds for and to support the Huggard Centre. The Centre is open 24/7 and for over 30 years has been providing support, help and accommodation for the homeless in Cardiff. Unfortunately we have been unable to yet again hold our bi- annual tea party because of Covid. This has always been our main fundraising activity in previous years. However we were able to donate £100 and chocolate gifts at Christmas. A cheque for £424 plus Easter gifts was taken to the Centre last week . The money was raised by holding a raffle and through the generosity of the organisers of a Coffee morning at the Old School. The giving of Easter and Christmas and gifts has always generously been supported by the members of St Denys Church
