## Vicar’s Review of the Year 

Della and I were recently invited by the Archbishop of Wales, Andrew John, to speak at St Padarn’s College to new ministers joining the Church in Wales. Ours was one of six ‘good news stories’ from across the province. It gave us an opportunity to reflect on what our Heavenly Father has done within the life of our church family over this last year. This last year has again been one of significant change in the life of our church. In one way we should not be surprised that the disruption to church life during the pandemic, (in ways which had not happened in Britain for over 800 years), should take time for us to recover from. In many other ways, this of course does not make it any easier for us to adapt to the change. This year has seen the global pandemic reach its latter stages, the rise of the war in the Ukraine, soaring cost of living and the wider shaking of the foundations of this culture and country. We celebrated the Platinum Jubilee of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in June with about 250 people in the church grounds, and then grieved her death in September, with King Charles III visiting us in Cardiff. During this year, whereas many churches have dropped significantly in numbers, we have in the Lord’s mercy and kindness not only been able to maintain but to grow. We have grown in numbers and in diversity, as well as drawing in more and more children and young families. We give thanks to our heavenly Father that we now have over thirty nationalities in our church family on Sundays and across our mid-week ministries. 

In May 2022, we were able to relaunch our traditional Sunday service at St Mark’s which has steadily grown in numbers drawing in more and more diversely from the wider community, as it forms a natural pathway from our Fresh Start ministry into Sunday worship. We are profoundly grateful to everyone who has invested in this service and seen it grow, particularly to Jonathan Kell for his service and dedication. The 10.30 has drawn in increasing numbers of young families, which has enabled us to launch _Mini Church_ in the chapel. There are now about fifteen children under three years old and over forty others in _Kids Church_ and in our mid-week groups. Our growth has not only been among children. It has also been deeply encouraging to witness the growth in our church family at Heath Park and for the strength of friendship and pastoral support being offered. We remain tremendously grateful to our Sub Warden, Elaine Campbell-Hopkins, as well as Revd Rosemary Aldis and the wider team. At St Philip’s, we have started a weekly outreach for young people, the _Hangou_ t, as well as developed the Free Market Ministry, and are again very grateful to our Sub Warden, Annette Littlechild, as well as Becky Gibbs and the whole wider team. 

Outside of Sundays, we are sharing life and reaching out more and more widely to our parish and city. We are running over ten mid-week ministries and outreach events, as well as ten home groups across the city. Our outreach ministries have been strengthened not only through Fresh Start and Free Markets but also by our Christians Against Poverty Debt Centre. We are very grateful to Dave and Val Russell who have pioneered this ministry in collaboration with other local churches and are exploring ways to develop a money management course in the future. All of our mid-week ministries are supported by our dedicated teams which reflect the diversity of age and background across our church family. Morning Prayer has been shared twice weekly on zoom, as well as a monthly service of Holy Communion in church. We have had pop-up cafés, a full program of Mothers’ Union 

5 



meetings, a garden party at the vicarage, as well as the indefatigable Peter Edbury’s Rambles.  Our _Marks Men_ and _Spice Girls_ evenings, have been great times of friendship building across the church family. 

Our staff team has changed over the year. It was a sadness that Georgie Meagher stepped down from her role shortly after Easter. Our prayers are very much for her ongoing recovery and future ministry. Emily Prance’s voluntary internship came to an end in September and we were very grateful for all that she brought to the whole church family during her time with us. Rob McDonald joined us as our Curate in June, with Sam and Eddie and has been a great blessing and asset to our ministry.  I am very grateful to Barney Hawthorne for stepping into the role of Vicar’s Warden, and am very thankful for his personal support, wisdom and dedication. Becky Gibbs assumed the role of treasurer and has done extremely well in overseeing our budget and finances. Jo Shepherd also stepped in the role of worship coordinator and has worked very hard to develop and strengthen our musical worship. November saw the retirement of our Bishop, June Osborne, and January the appointment of her successor, Bishop Mary Stallard, whom we very much look forward to welcoming and working with in the future. 

Our celebrations around special seasons in the church calendar have also been a great blessing. At Easter it was a privilege to have Roger Carswell with us for the Holy Week mission, in which we had a large number of events during the daytime and in the evening, culminating in a time of worship and prayer on Caerphilly Mountain on Easter Sunday, as well as our joint celebration at St Mark’s. At Christmas it was a delight to be able to once again hold a whole range of services to reach out with the good news of Jesus, in ways which we had been prevented from doing for the two previous years. We had Christingles, St David’s Shopping Centre carols, Tamil Fellowship Christmas, World Cup final and carols with the Gabalfa Community Choir, a wonderfully international nativity, PCC Christmas party, Birchgrove and Cathays Carols, the Crib service, midnight Holy Communion, Fresh Start carols as well as the very well supported Love Christmas campaign, right through to football on Boxing Day in Heath Park. 

It has been invaluable to develop deeper partnerships in 2022 not only within the Calon y Ddinas ministry area but more widely with the university chaplaincy, the Archdeacon of Llandaff, KP Yohannan and the Believers Eastern church, as well as Nathan Munday and Heath Evangelical Church, the Growth Enablers within Llandaff Diocese, YWAM and Fusion, Cardiff Tamil Christian Fellowship, the Urdu Fellowship, Sound of Wales and other local churches. We are delighted that members of YWAM will be helping us to expand our ongoing ministry into a growing number of local schools. It has been wonderful to support additional mission partners; Central Eurasian Partners and Amigos Worldwide (Uganda). We have also developed prayer and support for our existing partners; Anne-Marie Wilson and Dave Bhakiaraj. Our wider collaboration culminated in the launch of the Hope Cymru movement in October in which we had 500 people attending and another 800 watching online. It was, to quote the Archbishop of Wales, one of the most diverse and hopeful events in the Church in Wales in many a year. We set out an ambitious ten year vision to play a part in reconnecting Wales with Jesus Christ, as we work collaboratively to share a big vision of his life and gospel, as the whole postmodern secular narrative which has dominated our culture for sixty years comes to an end. 

6 



We have had the joy of conducting about ten baptisms, as well as seeing a number of people come to know Christ, and been able to welcome an encouraging number of people into our church family at our welcome evenings at the Vicarage. As well as welcoming, we have also sadly said farewell to a number of people. Our love, prayers and sympathies continue to be very much with all those who have lost loved ones over this last year. We especially give thanks for the lives of Bruce Ford, Joyce Callow, Ted Rich, Valerie Spooner, Leonard Evans, Elizabeth Cockfield, John Hopkins, Jean Pearce, Phil Robinson, Barbara Jones, Jean Smith, Andrew Morris, Betty Cave, Barbara Rees, Judith White and others whose loss we grieve. We are so thankful that in Jesus, we believe in the communion of saints and receive that great reassurance that those who have gone before us who have known and loved Jesus Christ, have gone to be with Him which is better by far, into his glorious heavenly city and will come again with him on the great day when he returns to usher in his new creation. Our hearts go out to all who continue to suffer the pain of loss. We grieve with those who grieve and are privileged to be able to offer a bereavement group shortly after Easter. 

In January, a team from our PCC came together with representatives of other churches within our ministry area for the Archdeacons Visitation. During this time, we were encouraged to begin formulating a vision for the next decade. Central to our vision moving forward is of course Jesus Christ himself. Jesus has come down to lift us up, becoming our brother to take away our sins, and make us sons and daughters of His own almighty Father, in the greatest Kingdom and family which this world has ever known. We are committed to growing in knowledge of Jesus, loving him more, being transformed by him and sharing Him with our communities and city. At the Visitation, our dreams were strong and clear; to strengthen all our existing structures, to grow considerably, to plant churches and to play our part in the transformation of the Church in Wales as we seek to reconnect Wales with Jesus Christ. Over the next months we will continue to develop these conversations and prayerfully seek Jesus‘s guidance as we move forwards into the autumn. After the Annual Vestry Meeting on the 26th of March, we will have a bring and share lunch in which we will look forwards together. On the 23rd of April there will be a time to continue these conversations after our 9am service, with a bring and share lunch after the 10.30 service, as well as times at Heath Park and St Philip’s. These conversations will feed into a PCC discussion on the 9th of May. This will form the basis for our Vision Sunday, on Pentecost, the 28th of May. We will be aiming to submit this formally as a business plan to the Diocesan Officers and await resourcing to enable us to take forward our growing resource role. In the summer we will be able to continue conversations and build community during our Holiday at Home, 28[th] to the 31st of July. With guest speaker, Reverend Dr Steve Nichols, and a full program across our three campuses, as well as around the city, it will be a weekend not to be missed. In September we aim to be in a position to refresh existing structures and move strongly forwards into the next chapter.

As we look back over this year, with all the change and upheaval we give thanks to our almighty Father for all of his goodness, care and provision. St Mark’s is more and more widely being known as a bright shining light within the Church in Wales. As well as speaking to ministers joining the Church in Wales, I was also invited to share what is happening in our church family at the Llandaff Diocesan Conference in September. We were delighted to receive a visit from the Archbishop of Wales in November, and were honoured to make headlines in Wales Online. As I look out on Sunday mornings to more new faces, from around the world, gathered together to worship the Triune God, I always quietly say to myself, ‘The Lord has done this and it is marvellous in our eyes’. As we deliberately and selfconsciously continue to base all our shared church life together upon Jesus Christ, may we know Him ever more deeply and share His glorious gospel to those on the outside and be granted our dreams of shining all the more brightly in the gathering darkness for Him. May we with others lift high the banner of Jesus and seeing a turning point across the land of Wales, in which tens of thousands come to know and love Him and bow at the feet of the cross of calvary. Thank you for all that you are doing, your generosity with the gifts, time and resources that Jesus has given you, may we shine ever more for Him. My wish is always that I could do so much more in Jesus’ service and for the glory and honour of his name. Thank you as always to you, my church family, dear brothers and sisters in Christ, it continues to be a profound privilege to serve you as your Vicar. 

**Revd Marcus Nelson**

## Finance Report 

## **“Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, who share in the heavenly calling, fix your thoughts on Jesus, the apostle and high priest whom we confess.”** Hebrews 3:1 

Our aim is to bring people to Jesus and to meet their physical and spiritual needs. We ask Jesus to guide us in all our financial and practical decisions. 

## **Unrestricted Funds** (the day to day running expenses of the church) 

Almost all our income at St Mark’s and St Philip’s comes from voluntary giving by our members. Thank you to everyone who has given generously to St Mark’s and St Philip’s in 2022. This church is blessed financially, and we are very grateful to you all, and to our Father God for His provision. 

Our unrestricted income for 2022 was £234,922 and expenditure was £208,748. It was expected that the unrestricted budget would be £5,000 in deficit, but expenditure was £21,000 less than predicted (partly due to staff leaving or reducing their hours worked). We therefore had a surplus of £26,173, including £4,300 underspend from the committed tithe to mission giving, which has been transferred to the Designated Mission Giving Fund to be spent in 2023. In addition, £5,000 was transferred to the Designated Critical Repair Fund, £5,000 to the Designated Organ Fund and £7,500 to Hope Cymru. This has left a surplus of £4,373. 

It costs approximately £240,000 each year for all the general running costs, which includes a policy of giving 10% of our general income to charity. This enables us to employ our amazing staff and run all our worship services and weekly groups for all ages, put on outreach events and cover the running costs of the church buildings. 

## **Designated Funds** 

Apart from the transfers already mentioned, there was little movement in Designated Funds in 2022. The funds have benefitted from interest rates increasing in the last few months of 2022. 

The PCC agreed to transfer £7,500 to the Designated Hope Cymru Fund in 2022. This, together with a donation of £2,000 and an additional £500 in Gift Aid, covered the costs of the Hope Cymru launch event in 2022. There is £6,181 left to be spent on this project in 2023. 

We received two legacy donations in 2022, which increased the Legacy Fund to £9,076. 

The Contingency Fund was used to buy streaming equipment, fridges and freezers for the food markets and a new photocopier, and also to cover the cost of the Platinum Jubilee event in June. These reduced the fund from £86,402 to £79,026. 

Total Designated Funds at the end of 2022 were £176,316. 

9 



**Restricted Funds** (funds received for named projects that can only be spent on those projects) 

Thank you to everyone who donated to the Love Christmas campaign, which raised almost £3,900! £2,000 of this money was added to Citizen Church’s Love Christmas grant of £2,000 to enable us to give Bibles, toiletries, hot water bottles, chocolates and biscuits to the people who came to the food markets in the weeks before Christmas. The remaining amount makes up part of the £3,871 in the Community Projects – City Outreach Fund and will be spent in 2023. This fund is used to buy supplies for the food markets at St Mark’s and St Philip’s. However, St Philip’s raised £326 to fund their own Love Christmas gifts and have £50 remaining in the St Philip’s Community Outreach Fund, to meet the specific needs of their food market clients. 

£10,173 from the St Philip’s Building Fund was used to replace the front doors and windows in 2022. 

New funds for 2022: Bruce Ford Boiler Fund: £6,252 

Sensory Healthy Church: £1,795 grant from the Diocese 

Children and Youth Work: £785 grant from the Diocese for the Saltmine Theatre Company to put on Rhyming Bible shows for local schools at St Mark’s and St Philip’s. 

Total Restricted Funds at the end of 2022 were £46,201. 

With grateful thanks to Pauline Page, who has been training me up in the role since I took over at Easter 2022. 

Thanks also to Wendy Cook, Assistant Treasurer for St Philip’s, and to Cathy Allen, for her excellent work as Payroll Clerk. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The PCC agreed in 2021 that £56,000 be retained in the unrestricted funds of the parish, which is 3 months’ unrestricted expenditure. The unrestricted funds total stands at £60,803 at the end of 2022. 

Page 8 of the finance report outlines where our money is held. No bank holds more than £85,000 of the Parish money, so our reserves are protected under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme.

Independent Examinerfs Report to the Parochial Church Council
for the year ended 31st December 2022
Inde
endent examiner's ro ort to tho Trustees
I report on the Accounts of the Church for the year ended 31. December 2022. which are set
out on pages numbered Finance- Pages 1-12.
Respective responsibilities of Trustsos and Examinor".
The Church's Trustees are responsible for the preparation ofthe Accounts. The Churth's Trustees
consider Ihat an audit is not ￿qUired for this year under section 144{21 of the Charities Act 2011
(the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility..
to examine the accounts under Section 145 of the 2011 Act..
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Diredions given by the Charity Commissioners
under section 145 {5llb} of the 2011 Act, and
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of Independént Examlnorfs report:
My examination was carned out in accordance with the Genèral Dirertions gwen by the Charity
Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting ￿CordS kepl by the Charity and
a comparison of the Accounts presented wf(h those ￿cOrdS. 11 also includes consideration of any
unusual rtems or disclosures in Ihe Accounts, and seeking explanations from you as Trustees
conceming any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not yovide all the evidence that would
bè required in an audrt and no opinion is given as lo whether the Accounts present a 'lrue and fair
view,, and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent Ex•mIne￿* •tatement:
Since the gross income for the year exceeds the amount provided in section 14513) of the Act,
I confirm thal l am qualified to aGt as Independent Examiner under the provisions of that section of
the Acl and that my qualification is as shown below.
In connection with my examination. no matter has come to my attention..
{11 which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements..
lo keep accounling ￿COrdS in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act", and
lo prepare AGGounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the
accounling requirements ofthe 2011 Act have not been met.. or
12) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn to enable a proper understanding of the
Accounts lo be ￿8¢hed.
