In planning our activities, the PCC trustees have been aware of the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit in The Advancement of Religion for the Public Benefit and have had regard to it in the administration of the Charity.

Worship and Prayer

The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship in our churches and to become part of our parish community. We are fortunate to be able to enjoy a wide and flexible programme of liturgical worship, within the Catholic tradition. Including: Sunday services 0800 Holy Communion (BCP) St Francis 0930 Parish Mass & Children’s Church St Francis 1115 Parish Mass Holy Evangelists

Weekday services

Morning Office 09:00 Morning Prayer (Mon to Thurs) St Francis Evening Office 17:00 Evening Prayer (Mon to Thurs) St Francis Tuesday 09:30 Mass St Francis Thursday 10:00 Mass Holy Evangelists Thursday 19:30 Mass St Francis Saturday 09:30 Mass St Francis (Advent & Lent only)

Owing to the pandemic, worship activities at the School have been suspended.

Teaching and Nurture

Due to the Covid pandemic, it has not been possible to follow our usual course of educational programmes this year. Instead, although technical difficulties had to be overcome, use has been made of online courses, utilizing the Benefice’s YouTube channel. An Advent course was presented in this way.

Evangelism and Community Outreach

The Beacon parish magazine — published monthly in-house and widely distributed across the parish community. The PCC decided that the magazine would be distributed by post, free of charge, to all who wished to receive a printed copy for the duration of the pandemic. Ach edition would be available electronically to those who prefer to receive it in that format. Local companies and individuals publish adverts in the magazine. Fr David has used the Beacon parish magazine, through a series of monthly articles, to help the community and congregation to meet the challenges of the present crisis, as well as by providing articles on appropriate Christian topics. Occasional articles on other topics are contributed by members of the parish. Regular reflections have been emailed throughout the congregations

and occasional talks have been provided on Facebook, despite technical challenges.

The parish website — previously kept up to date, has suffered from the resignation of the previous webmaster and a replacement format is currently being considered, as too much technical knowledge is required for the current format. A Church Near You, maintained by the Church of England, is currently acting as a temporary replacement. Plans have been commenced with a view to replacing our current website with a more user-friendly version, permitting regular updating.

Holy Evangelists Church has suspended all social events due to the Pandemic, as of March. Worship was suspended for a period, on the Bishop’s instructions, owing to the pandemic, but has been resumed, with necessary social distancing guidelines being complied with.

Social Justice and Care We continue to support the work of The Children’s Society and World Vision. We actively promote the work of Christian Solidarity Worldwide, as well as that of Christian Aid.

Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)

St Clare’s Church Centre continues to be run as a venue for a range of classes and groups. The primary group to hire the hall is a dance group, which runs classes for both adults and children.

The facility is run by the PCC, with minimal involvement from the vicar. Day-to-day running of the Centre is dealt with by the Administrator. We have successfully obtained a series of relatively small grants from the You may choose to include local authority for the refurbishment and enhancement of the facility. This further y has permitted the PCC to continue to make the facility available for hire statements, where . d . he reducti f . : relevant. about: to community groups an , owing to the re uction of council services, , ‘ makes a welcome contribution to the social life of the area.
