Minutes of the Annual Parochial Church Meeting
to be held in Church 10:30am Sunday 5 May 2024
1.Worship, Prayers and bible reading
The opening prayer is led by Carole. Carole confirms that this is the final opportunity to stand for election and therefore if you really wish to stand speak to Neil or John at the back of church during first hymn. In addition if you have an AOB please also give to Neil or John
A hymn is sung. A thanksgiving liturgy is used, and JAM go out.
Bible reading Psalms 145.
Carole reflected briefly on the bible passage as follows:
-
Passage represents a hymn of praise to Lord from David
-
Focuses on greatness of God and virtues, and how he provides and cares for his people.
-
Easy to forget how awesome the power of our great God is. How we can take it for granted.
-
Everything that we do should be for the praise of God and to bring him glory and our behaviour should be a signpost to God.
-
Its beyond our ability to grasp his greatness but incumbent on us to try.
-
Relevance of Old Testament that God WILL act on our behalf. When we see what he has done in the past we can be assured that he will act on our behalf
Psalm 78 expands – on how the power and greatness of God should be passed on with a focus on intergenerational ministry.
-
V8 – 9: Compassion, boundless, unconditional love. What does that mean to us?
-
V10-12 – Praise and speak of his mighty acts
-
V14 – 18 – we are made in his image – and all made to be righteous with him who desires to love all living things, especially every human.

4a PCC Report for 2024
The PCC has met in May, July, September, November, January and March.
The PCC formed subgroups for deeper discussion with smaller numbers with a group for finance, buildings and Transforming Church action plan (TCAP). We have also focused on monitoring our TCAP and furthering our church vision. The PCC has scrutinised the finances of the church and ensured the maintenance of the building, the tower restoration project was a matter of major focus this year including focus of fundraising and was happily completed in the Autumn.
In October the PCC held an away day at St John’s Westwood, to brainstorm ideas relating to our vision and our buildings

4b Deanery Synod Report 2024
The Warley and Edgbaston Deanery met three tmes during 2024.
At the meeting on February 25th the main business was a finance presentation from Karen Preece Director of Finance and Sonia Hudson Finance Manager.
There are 42 dioceses in England. Birmingham is 15[th] from the bottom in terms of income. In 2022 the Diocese made a £1 million loss. 1.1 million was received from the Church Commissioners to help to balance the books. Half of the income comes from the Common Fund. It goes on stipends, pensions, clergy housing and the office team. Some money comes from the Archbishop’s fund. We are a poor diocese having no historic investments to provide extra income but, we are a generous community compared to other dioceses. The Church of England does give us money for specific projects and for curates. In 2023 we were £1million short but churches are finding it difficult to meet their Common Fund. There is a “Strategic Investment Fund” of about £6 million that has been used to meet shortfalls but, this will only last another 2 – 3 years. This means that we have more clergy than we can afford but reducing clergy would impact our mission. There was information about how the Common Fund was calculated. The system pre 2020 was not robust enough to withstand covid. Parishes are being asked for 80% of their pre covid commitment. Common Fund raised £6 million in 2019 but only £4.6 million in 2023 but of course bills and expenses are going up.
Having said all this, Edgbaston/Warley Deanery was the best in 2023. It has the highest number of parishes giving 98% or more of their Common Fund. No parishes gave nothing. 96% of the Common Fund requested from this Deanery was received.
The Finance department can give parishes support through payroll services, bookkeeping services, generous giving advisor, parish giving scheme and resources such as posters etc.
At the meeting on 5[th ] June 2024 the main business was to consider two resolutions to go to Diocesan Synod.
The meeting began by revisiting the Birmingham Diocesan Board of Finance presentation from our February meeting. Given the frustrations evident at that meeting following the news of the budgeted £1.6m deficit for 2024, standing committee brought the motion below to this synod to be considered to take forward to diocesan synod.
Following our last W&E deanery synod meeting and in the light of a. a rising diocesan financial annual deficit budgeted to be £1.6 million in 2024, b. low clergy morale, c. and a widespread lack of awareness at parish level that we have a significant financial problem, W&E deanery request that the diocese provide greater clarity and better engagement with parishes and deaneries concerning our financial future, so that we can properly participate in prayerful conversations that lead to a clear and understandable plan to eliminate the deficit within this financial year in order to restore morale amongst clergy and laity in the medium term. (Passed)
[NB. This item was not passed at Diocesan synod but was revisited at the February 2025 meeting of the Deanery Synod.]
We then heard from Canon Dr Andrew Smith, Director of Interfaith Relations for the Bishop of Birmingham. He spoke about mission and ministry in Presence and Engagement parishes (where 10% of the population are from other faiths).
March 2025

The second resolution was a presentation by Rev Dr Katie Stock on vexatious complaints against clergy, which recognised the unique vulnerability of clergy to such complaints and invited synod support of the following motion to be submitted to diocesan synod.
a Review current diocesan complaints policies for their suitability regarding complaints of a vexatious, malicious or querulant nature. b. Bring forward policies which incorporate best practice to ensure complaints are handled on merit and in context, with provision and guidance on how to recognise and deal with vexatious, malicious and querulant grievances. (passed)
[NB This item was deferred to a later date by the Diocesan synod.]
The meeting on 24[th] October was an open meeting so several members of the PCC and the Parish Environment Contacts (PECs) were in attendance in addition to the Deanery Reps. and clergy as the main item was about the environment.
Our main agenda item was the climate crisis and the Churches response and Caroline Egan, Church of England Birmingham’s Assistant Environment Officer to address the subject. Retiring after forty years as a lawyer, Caroline now promotes climate action, was involved in a small way in helping draft Caroline Lucas’ Climate and Ecological Emergencies Bill (now the Climate and Nature Bill) and is involved in consultations on A Rocha’s Eco Diocese awards and the Church of England’s renewable energy criteria. Caroline addressed some key facts about the climate and environmental crises we are facing, and why we as Christians should be front and centre in tackling it. She explored what we as churches and as individuals can do and she signposted the support now available through the Church of England Birmingham, and the types of grants available to churches.
We also heard a racial justice update from Dawn Braithwaite, who described work going on at regional and diocesan level.
We also heard from Archdeacon Jenny who spoke about progress with oversight areas and oversight ministers and the culture change which is leading to greater collaboration between parishes.

4c Safeguarding Report
Joyce Gilkes was once again appointed as Parish Safeguarding Co-ordinator for 2024-25. Phil Arnold was given the responsibility of overseeing DBS / Identity checking, responsibility for this was taken over by Rachel Heathfield when Phil resigned.
During the year we have not had to refer any situations or concerns to the Diocesan SG team.
5a Annual Fabric Report for 2024 (APCM April 2025)
Church
Tower Project .
Work on the tower and spirelet was finally completed at the start of October 2024. The pointing work was completed to a good finish, and it is looking very smart. The whole surface of the west end
March 2025

was defrassed (loose stone rubbed off) and loose pointing scrapped out and jet washed. Some stone that was loose or weak was replaced. The whole was repointed. The bell and bell frame were cleaned and repainted. The bell cable was replaced. Some lead flashing has been replaced with lead substitute. Unfortunately, it took another month for the scaffolding to come down. There were some repairs needed to the roof and gutters which were not completed until January 2025.
Repairs and decorating .
Generally speaking, the Church is in reasonable repair but, it does need internal redecoration especially at the west end and in the gallery now that the outside work has been completed.
Electrical.
An electrical survey was conducted in 2022. Whilst everything is safe, most of the distribution boxes do not now meet the most recent standard and ought to be replaced in the not-toodistant future. There are some plug sockets that are damaged and need replacing. None of the spotlights are now working. Bulbs have not been replaced because of the difficulty in accessing them and the cost of running them at 300 watts per bulb. Hopefully they could be replaced with better lighting in the future. Lights in the office and crèche have been replaced. Thanks to a professional volunteer for this. The lightning conductors will need to be inspected in 2025.
Other work.
The doors from the porch into church have been eased. Thanks to the expert volunteers for a job well done.
Internal work.
When there has been time for the plaster to dry out, there will be a need to repair the plaster work that has been damaged by the damp and where it has fallen from the ceiling. Some plaster has fallen away from two of the windows in the main body of the Church and there is loose plaster near one of the beams. The whole Church is in need of redecoration.
General.
The usual PAT testing, fire safety survey and fire extinguisher inspections have been carried out. The boiler is serviced annually too.
The low-level gutters around church and the valleys on the porch area have all been cleaned. All outside drains have been cleaned out. Please do not put anything solid down the drains and toilets. We have had to have them rodded at times and that is an expense we can ill afford.
Churchyard, drive and car parks.
March 2025

The churchyard is a closed churchyard and so is the responsibility of Birmingham City Council who cut the grass on a regular basis. They are also responsible for trees and the wall. They have made some repairs to the wall along the drive in 2021 and in 2024. However, there are places where it is now in need of further repairs. Some areas have been repaired by volunteers. The bushes, ivy and brambles around the wall and notice board on Hagley Road have been cut back by volunteers. The drive near the Hall is in need of repair.
Stress tests on the gravestones and monuments in the church yard were carried out. All were found to be safe. Those in the Old Burial Ground were also checked. Two more have been found to be loose. With all the rain that we have had the ground has become very soft, then with all the wind, they have been loosened. There are now 14 grave stones and monuments that are in an unsafe condition. They are taped off with hazard tape around posts and there is a warning notice on the gate. The gardens were in a sorry state after the scaffolding and shuttering came down. They are gradually being brought back to a good condition thanks to volunteers. Helping Hands met on the 1[st] Saturday each month. Work was carried out to keep the Church clean and tidy. Outside we try to keep the grounds tidy and the drive and carparks clear of weeds and leaves. Bushes, brambles and ivy around the wall and notice boards are cut back. Work continues on the Old Burial Ground weeding the Primrose Bank and top bank, cutting back ivy and low branches, removing brambles, trimming around graves and keeping the paths clear. We created a “Mini Meadow” in the O.B.G. Please see the Old Burial Ground report for details. Thanks to all who have helped.
More could be done in and around Church and at the OBG if there were more volunteers. It is usually the same few people who do most of the work. Some of us are getting older and cannot do as much as we used to do!
Peter Sherwen 04/03/2025.
5b The Old Burial Ground Report
Regular maintenance of the O.B.G. has continued throughout 2024. Stress tests have been done on memorials and unsafe areas have been marked off.
There was a good show of spring flowers. However, as last year there were a variety of grasses but fewer flowering plants in the main meadow area. Wet weather delayed the cutting of the grass until late August/ early September and was finally finished in early October.
In early October a new “Mini Meadow” was started in one area of the main meadow, in an effort to re-introduce annual species of flowering plants. Many thanks to the gallant volunteers who removed the existing turf, prepared it for sowing and spread new seeds. This area has now been marked off.
Outdoor Church has continued to meet once a month on the O.B.G. and use it as a resource.
Pupils from Q.C.P.S. visited the O.B.G. as usual, to view the Commonwealth War Graves as part of their Armistice Day assembly.
The number of people able to work regularly in the O.B.G. has continued to decrease. If anyone can help, even if it’s just a “one off” task, please contact me.

6 Ministries Reports
6a Ladies Guild 2024
Ladies Guild
Ladies Guild meets on the first Thursday of the month at 2.30pm in church. Many members are involved with different aspects of Christ Church life, some are members of other churches or none. All are welcome to join us.
During the year we held our annual Lent and Advent Services. We welcomed speakers for a Trip along the Silk Road, Music and the spoken word, heard about the work of Safe Families and a local councillor spoke about her work and answered questions. We enjoyed a sing along with Maddie and members shared special memories, we had a Beetle drive and were entertained by a Ukulele band. To celebrate our 68[th] Anniversary we had lunch in Lightwoods House, we also met up at The Stag for lunch and enjoyed our annual Afternoon Tea in church.
We joined with other members of the church for the Summer Fete and organised the Tombola.
Through the generosity of members, we were also able to raise and donate £350 to church funds, £150 to Mary Stevens Hospice and £150 to the Salvation Army for work with the homeless.
6b Pastoral Care
Our team has continued to offer support and listening and practical love to those in need. Despite constraints within the team, care has been provided. We are very grateful to the whole team who visit, shop, pray with, take home communion to and phone up for a chat.
6c Youth, Children, and family work at Christ Church
I feel one of the most exciting parts of our church is seeing our young people grow, and when I Look at some of the older ones and see how much they have grown both physically and spiritually over the years it fills me with great joy. Working in children’s ministry, I feel is one of the most rewarding ministries you can be part of, the young people invariably teach you so much more than you can possibly teach them.
There is a big push in the national church for Children’s work (the 30K project) and it is now recognised as one of the most important areas to invest in. We have taken up this challenge investing, as a Church, in the provision we provide for our Children and families. In the fresh expression services such as Outdoor church, 4O’clock church, Tuesday Church and Jam. We have put on training for the awareness and needs of those that are Neurodiverse. Which was well received by our children’s workers, and from other churches around Birmingham. Clair and I have successfully completed a training course in children’s work and have been commissioned by the bishop for this purpose.
I have been employed now by the church as the Youth, children’s and family Minister, a role that I feel so privileged to take on. This allows me the time to take on work that before I was unable to

access due to work commitments. This is yet another sign of our commitment as a Church to this area of Gods Kingdom.
All the work we do to help grow our young people into the people that God wants them to be, would not be possible, however, without a group of highly talented and dedicated volunteers. I would like to thank them all for their unending commitment and love for our young people. These are the Heros that are building this part of Gods Kingdom!
Thankyou
Four O’clock Church
Four O’clock Church is a Family and Children service, running at 4 O’clock every 3rd Sunday of the month. It continues to run well with a small body of dedicated and creative volunteers, without whom it could not run. A great vote of thanks goes out to all these amazing volunteers.
The Christmas and Good Friday services were successful with between 80 to over 100 people attending both. The Nativity scene that was created at Christmas time caused a lot of admiring comments. This again was orchestrated by some of our very talented and committed volunteers.
An important part of4’Oclock church is a rota of people to provide some light snacks as part of the service and welcome. Thank you so much to all these fantastic people who have contributed to the great welcome we can offer to these families. The provision of food for fellowship says a great deal of who we are and what we are here for.
The 4O’clock church continues to be an important part of our outreach into the surrounding community, providing a platform for young families to meet with Jesus and become a part of the Christ Church Quinton Family.
Moving forward we will be looking at the advertising and communication of this service in the community to try to grow the number of families we reach.
JAM (Jesus and Me)
JAM continues to run well led by a strong and creative team. They have created some astounding displays, and it is always a delight to see what they have been learning at the end of the 10:30 service. The Banners that have been created have really been outstanding and are a testament to the creative children’s team running JAM.
Congratulations to Clair who leads the team, who has this year completed a training course for children’s work and was commissioned by the bishop in the summer. She continues to equipe herself undertaking another children’s workers course this year
The team are fantastic working in a very small space that isn’t appropriate for the work they do and it’s a testament to their dedication that they continue to make it work and teach such an amazing group of young people. The children have grown in knowledge and confidence sharing their faith, it is a privilege to see them grow!
Some of the children in JAM are starting to outgrow this amazing provision and will need a more ageappropriate discipleship group. which I (Mark) intend to start up. This will take place at the same
March 2025

time and will offer deeper bible study, building on the great foundation they have been given and carrying them on in their walk with God.
Outdoor church
Outdoor Church is an alternative family service occurring every 2[nd] Sunday of the month. This takes place outside in the Old Burial Ground, celebrating Gods creation and providing a less intimidating access to church for young families. We have had great fun worshipping outdoors creating ways to celebrate Gods glorious creation.
Even through the winter we have had a dedicated few that worship outdoors and some families come especially for Outdoor Church. In January we had over 20 members attending, young and old. This is made to happen by a great team of volunteers that turn up whatever the weather. No wrong weather just the wrong clothing!
Outdoor Church has proved particularly valuable for some of our neurodiverse members. Providing a large open space that helps them keep their anxiety levels down whilst providing a safe space to express themselves. Discussing scripture and creating responses using the natural environment has been a real highlight of this service, helping young families to grow together discussing the teachings of Jesus and growing together in the love of God in His creation.
Tuesday Church (Safe space)
We started the drop-in session on Tuesday after school on the 18[th of] March. It is run for years 611, providing a safe space for them to come to after school, to get something to eat and drink and talk with friends. I also see this as a way into ’Church’, giving them the opportunity to talk about current issues and possibly leading to a more faith-based group or a Youth Alpha. On the first session we had approximately 25 young people, a few had come back from when it ran before and from the reception of the young people at this session I am expecting more to come in the coming weeks. We have purchased some bean bags, for a quiet space, that the young people could use to just be still if needed after a hectic day at school. These were purchased with monies from some generous donations from the congregation. We have a small body of volunteers with a big heart for these young people, giving generously of themselves, without whom, this wouldn’t be able to run.
The plan for the near future is to start a faith-based group for all the young people that are searching, helping them to explore the Christian faith and what Jesus means to them.
Toddle Inn Report Lead by Claire Cronin
Each week we meet at Quinton Church at the back of the church on a Monday morning 9/9.30am to 11am we have between 6 and 11 children weekly.
Each week the toys are arranged out into sections a baby section, musical instruments, Cars with road map, Dolls and pushchairs, Train track, puzzles, and the bookcase where children can look at the different story books with their parents or other children. The children play where they feel led. We then have tidy up time where the children are encouraged to help. We offer the children fruit around

930 and they have toast about 1030 when they have a bible story, sing songs, and do a craft which is linked to the bible story or the time of year.
We have looked at God creation I can see, touch hear smell. We made Mother’s Day cards, Christmas cards the design was the nativity story,
Harvest we spoke to the parents about the foodbank asked them if they could bring some food for our harvest service, and that we were distributing the food to Quinton foodbank. They also did a harvest poster which was shown and displayed in church.
Christmas the children learned about the Christmas story, and we had our own nativity story with the children dressed up in costumes. The children loved this and had a great time.
We now charge £2 per family this goes towards the food and craft activities. At Christmas we had a Christmas party and Santa came and gave every child a present and we played pass the parcel.
6d Brandhall Community Hub Report
God’s work has been evident in 2024 through the growing connections we have made in the local community. Approximately 2500 people attended the Hub this year and many of those made the Hub part of their weekly routine. This year has been about strengthening the community that we are part of, showing the consistency of God’s love.
Christ Church has been awarded a £20000 grant over two years from Lottery funding, which will go towards financing the Community Development Manager role, who continues to oversee the day-today management and development of the Hub, alongside a committed group of volunteers.
People come to the Hub for all sorts of reasons: to get emergency and supplementary food; to get children’s clothes or uniform; to feel less isolated, and for company; to feel like they belong and have recognition; to share skills and learn new ones; to donate time and resources; and to obtain advice and support. The following projects all have a part to play in showing God’s love in practical ways and by walking alongside our community.
The Food Pantry membership has increased to 84 members but has remained consistent with an average of 30 members attending each week. This is reflective of the national averages. We have applied for a grant for the Pantry to offer a second session during the evening which will open opportunities especially for our ‘harder to reach’ members of the community.
The Toddler2Teens clothing and the Uniform Bank remain in demand reaching many needy families. They have both received grants to improve the service they provide. The Uniform bank has refurbished and reorganized so that items can be easily found. Tots2Teens has been fitted out with shelving and storage boxes which is a huge improvement from the mountain of labeled black bags! In addition to this the Hub was awarded an additional grant of £1000 from the Hedley Foundation to purchase new underwear and socks for children in greatest need.

God’s garden has been a real blessing to lots of individuals. It has provided a welcoming outdoor space to sit, chat, potter, and garden. Our volunteers have done a fantastic job renovating and maintaining it. We even had some produce for the Pantry!
The Hub has weekly activities including warm space, and ‘Knit and Natter’ which is well attended. This is a friendly lively group that is evolving all the time. They have been involved in sharing Gods love by using their skills to bless the community and build friendships. We have also had some very successful events at Christmas, Valentines Day and Easter.
The Hub is often a place of lively debates about politics, and differing outlooks on how we exist together as a community. At times this can be very challenging to navigate, whilst respecting each other’s views and opinions yet challenging and championing the Godlier view.
This year has been a year of consolidation and strengthening community relationships. Step by step the Hub continues to reach and bless the local community, showing them God’s love in practical ways and continuing to sow seeds of hope.
6e World Mission Links Report for 2024
Our Mission Links. These are the individuals and organisations that the PCC has supported financially past year and we are asked to support as a Church. Our Mission Links Committee feels that this is a good spread of individuals/organisations.
The Church Mission Society i s the main Anglican mission society. We have had links with CMS mission partners for many years. Bev de Pinos is our current link. She is working with the Anglican Church as a CMS Mission Partner . During 2022 she met Johnny Cannon de Pinos and married in September of that year. He is from Cuenca in Ecuador . Bev continues as a CMS Mission Partner in her new role working with the church in Cuenca. She has worked with another CMS Mission Partner on the Orchid Project which aims to provide training and work for people with disabilities.
We support A Rocha Kenya and Colin and Roni Jackson who are in charge there. One of the “Marks of Mission” is care for the environment and A Rocha is a Christian organisation that works to protect the environment and educate on environmental issues in Britain and in several other countries around the world.
The Esperanza Foster Home in Paraguay was set up by two of our former link missionaries and although small, has national importance as an example of good practice, indeed the President of Paraguay has visited. It is part of the Anglican Church in Paraguay. As well as Esperanza, we also support (through fund raising around Christmas) FEISA which is the Anglican Teacher Training College.
Christian Solidarity Worldwide advocates for Christians and others suffering persecution in various parts of the world. If one part of the body suffers then the whole of the body suffers. We feel that we

should do our part in supporting the persecuted church. On Sunday 5[th] November we had two short videos from CSW and we asked people to send Christmas Cards to the Persecuted Church. About 40 cards were sent and an additional £175 was sent to CSW. We have been a “Partner Church” with CSW since 2021.
Mission Links Committee make presentations in Church about our mission links including A Rocha Kenya, CMS and our Paraguayan projects.
On 21[st] April we gave general information about our mission Links. On 7[th] July we focused on A Rocha Uk, A Rocha Kenya and ECO Church. On 15[th] September we had a speaker from CSW. And on 3[rd] November we wrote Christmas cards to send to people imprisoned or persecuted for their faith with addresses supplied by CSW. Julie and Rachel produced some lovely Christmas cards which were available during Advent.
Funds were raised for mission through the sale of jams etc. at Christmas. Unfortunately, PCC were unable to be as generous in our Mission giving in 2024 as usual due to a shortfall in the general account though we did receive a generous donation of £2,000 towards our Mission Links funding. These gifts were made from General Fund.
| C.M.S. (Bev Cannon.) £1,000 |
|---|
| C.S.W. £1,000 |
| Esperanza £750 |
| A Rocha Kenya (Colin & Roni.) £ 500 |
| Total£3,250 |
In addition to these societies, Food Bank, Brandhall Hub, Children’s Society and Christian Aid were supported by the Church and congregation.
We do need more people on our committee to be our links with different societies such as CSW. Could you do this? The committee usually meets three times a year. Our aim is to keep the needs of mission worldwide before the congregation.

6f Quinton Foodbank report
We have seen many changes this past year. In March we became an independent charity (CIO) with a board of Trustees, two of whom are clergy. This was a positive move and means that the overall responsibility of the foodbank doesn’t fall on Christchurch PCC. It also means we have our own charity number, so applying for grants becomes much more straightforward.
During the year we have had to spend a large amount on food (over £16,000) to sustain the work we do. However, we have had several successful campaigns in various supermarkets thanks to the volunteers who participate. We were blessed by a donation during the month of July when our stocks were very low. We had a surprise delivery from a company which turned out to be a full van

load. Our Harvest donations were up this year the biggest since covid. We were also blessed by a year 12 student who collected gifts to fill up 50 shoe boxes full of presents to be given out at Christmas they were even labelled age and gender appropriate.
In the week leading up to the holidays, we were able to gift everyone an extra bag Christmas of goodies, 85 in total. This was mainly down to the reverse Advent calendars that the Brownies and Rainbows took part in.
We have fed 7,190 people this year: 4,102 adults and 3,088 children and have given out 22,772.8kg of stock in weight. This takes an enormous amount of work and time, and I can’t thank the volunteers enough for this, especially the volunteers who work tirelessly behind the scenes.
We also won a grant bid that enabled us to have Anna, our Citizens Advice worker, working full time with us. This is a much-needed service to ensure people are getting the right support and advice.
The supported volunteers programme at QAC is working well and the feedback is very positive.
We had a pharmacist on site during November to administer Covid and Flu vaccines, this was taken up by a large number of clients and volunteers.
We sadly lost one of our dear volunteers back in January who died very suddenly, and this affected many of us. She is remembered very fondly.
Lastly, I would like to thank the congregation and clergy of Christchurch for the continued support and commitment to the Foodbank.

6g Interim Minister Report
Checking back over the last year is always a good thing to do. As always, 12 months has flown by. This report intends to highlight the things that I have had particular focus on through the year, but there might be lots of “normal” stuff that doesn’t get mentioned!
I was off on health leave for the last annual meeting so, it seems appropriate to thank the team who invested so much time and energy in keeping everything going when I wasn’t working. Thanks to Phil and Carole for admin and practical stuff, thanks to the teaching and leading team, Andrew, Chris, Mark, Bev, Carole, Heather & Andy. Thanks for all the love, prayers and support for me at that time.
People . In August we waved goodbye to Phil who arrived at Christ Church a month before me, in 2016 and had been through different incarnations of employment at Christ Church. He was a valuable resource to us in so many ways and we celebrated all he had done for us and thanked him for all he gave to us. I admit I still call him when I need to know how something works…..!
We didn’t replace Phil in the office straight away and I am grateful to Carole for temporarily stepping in and taking some of the strain. We have had a long enough pause to consider what role was needed and we are glad that Jaime has recently started with 2 mornings a week. Phil also did youthwork and we are glad to have also recently appointed Mark to do what he was doing (and some more), covering Youth, Children and Families.
Bev studied hard and was licenced as another Lay Reader for our team. Mark & Claire worked hard on the Catalyst Course and were licenced by the Bishop as Children’s ministers. Well done, all of you!

Being salt and light in our community is crucial to us as Christ Church. To be distinctively Christian and to share the goodness and love of God with all. Our regular activities are all included in this report and we are very grateful for all they do and “say” to our local community. This year we have had to focus on fund raising for the building work we had on the Tower but each event we did had the added benefit of connecting with the community around us. The Summer Fete raised a huge amount and connected with 100s of people. The Rock Choir concerts (spring and winter) both raised money but proved that we are also a great place of welcome and fun.
A significant change in governance happened this year with the change of charitable status of the Quinton Foodbank to being an independent CIO. This is very good news for the energy and support of the Foodbank. The board is now a very dedicated and useful team of 8 people. We as Christ Church must never forget that it is “ours” to support though, and Barbara who is now appointed as Project Manager, is definitely one of us, to uphold in prayer and practical support.
The Brandhall Community HUB continues to be a place of welcome and belonging for the local community. It is good for us to continue working in partnership with the other local churches (Kings Community, St Huberts Catholic and Church Central) and this shows our Christian unity and all our desires to serve others. The HUB connected with approximately 4000 people through the Food Pantry, the uniform and clothing banks, knit & natter and other social exclusion projects. This figure is phenomenal. I am grateful to Lorraine, the project manager who keeps everything running on a day to day basis.
One of my personal passions is connecting with two local schools. I am on the boards of both the church primary school (on our site) and Brandhall Primary. I am called on by both to do Christian teaching and pastoral care of staff and pupils alike. It’s a privilege to do this.
Partnership is crucial to our ministry and we are glad for the HUB partners but are also pleased to be linked with St Boniface Church as a newly formed Oversight Ministry Area for which I am responsible as Oversight Minister. This will continue to develop in significance but we are hopeful it will mean shared ministry with specific gains in mission and outreach in this area. One area we are definitely benefiting from is in the support in contemporary worship leading, being particularly grateful to Rachel & Bob who come (with others) to lead worship every month(ish).
Building up and maintaining a safe church is crucial to ministry at Christ Church. We must endeavour to be a church where people feel safe and can expect to be treated with dignity and respect. Fostering safe practice in all areas of church life and having a culture where we hold one another accountable for how we treat others continues to be a focus for me.
I feel grateful to have been called to ministry here at Christ Church (it will be 9 years this June) and I am happy (and relieved!) not to yet be called elsewhere! Thank you for being part of the continued sense of belonging I have here. Thank you for your patience when I make mistakes and thanks for loving me through the ups and downs of life.

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of the Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of Christ Church the Quinton, Birmingham.
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31[st ] December 2024.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act'). I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of the Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of Christ Church the Quinton, Birmingham.
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31[st ] December 2024.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act'). I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
