2020 Parish of Sandal Magna Annual Review

Looking ahead with prayerful confidence

What a rollercoaster year of fluctuating emotions. When faced with such a crisis, our faith is tested, our social and worshipping lives restricted and the Bible takes on a whole new resonance.

Excluded from our church buildings and the community life which revolves around our worship, it felt like an exile to a strange, unfamiliar land.

After their city and place of worship was destroyed in 586BC the people of Israel were exiled to Babylon where they remained for 70 years before they were able to return and rebuild the temple. During that time they went through a period of lamenting their loss: How can we sing the Lord’s song in a strange land? It was a time when faith was tested in the burning, fiery furnace and the Lion’s den. It was a time of adapting to but not being subsumed by the alien culture they lived in. It was also a time of great creativity when many of the books of the Bible which previously belonged to an oral tradition were written down and preserved.

In the Psalms, lament and rejoicing go hand in hand, to help us hold onto the promise of freedom and restoration:

Those who go out weeping,

carrying seed to sow, will return with songs of joy, carrying sheaves with them. Psalm 126:6

Last year we missed the celebration of Easter and Christmas in our churches and communities. We missed the gatherings for sharing food and enjoying life together. Many were deprived of opportunities to say farewell to loved ones, and mark their passing with family and friends. Jobs were put on hold and in doubt. Weddings were postponed. Visits and movement curtailed.

Schoolchildren lost a year in school, but were served valiantly by teachers who doubled their workload. Doctors and nurses became the heroes and heroines we clapped every Thursday. We even flew a rainbow flag from the tower of St Helen’s.

On the positive side, we connected with people in a new way. Everyone joined in phoning one another and keep morale high. Much prayer was said and shared. Easter gardens and Christingles were made.

We rediscovered the joy of walking our neighbourhoods in spring and summer and autumn. Less so in winter! We communicated online as best we could. We displayed resilience in the face of uncertainty. We were grateful for the astonishing development of vaccines which are now making an impact.

Every week for 40 weeks and on several occasions subsequently, food hampers and cooked meals were made by Cath and her team, and distributed to families most in need.

2

CAP continued to serve those struggling with debt and has now reached the landmark of 100 people set free from crippling debt.

Churches worked together to produce a Carol service for the City. Our worship band also created a beautiful Carol service. We began to stream live services online with hymns and songs. We used our brand new digital notice board to communicate with the parish and produce a beautiful Advent Calendar in collaboration with the children of our Church School.

And we look forward to the reopening of our churches for worship in time for Easter. We pray that our various ministries can begin again to grow and flourish.

Our church will be undergoing two transitions. The transition back into gathering for worship and service, and the transition into a new season with a new Vicar. This period goes by the quaint Latin name of an interregnum, which means between two rules! I hope that we and the next Vicar do not rule over anyone! That would be contrary to the Gospel. As Jesus said: You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all. Mark 10 42-44.

3

This season will be a season of serving one another and the parish, praying for whoever God is calling, and discerning his will. Sally and I are so grateful for the gifted servant leaders whom we have worked alongside over the years, and who will carry on the Lord’s work in this parish, led by our Churchwardens, Andrea, Brian, Craig and Ed, and our Reader, Angela, under the wise stewardship of our PCC.

We are confident of God’s provision in due course. And we are confident that everyone will continue to serve one another and those in our community with the grace and lovingkindness of Jesus Christ, inspired by his Spirit.

Bellringers

2020 began with 'business as usual' in the bell tower, we could generally muster six ringers to provide called changes and simple method ringing for the Sunday services. Our five trainees were making excellent progress, learning 'Plain Hunt on 4 bells' as an introduction to method ringing.

In mid-March all bellringing ceased due to the need for social distancing, and the first lockdown. This situation continued until early September, when we were able to re-start on a very limited basis - fifteen minutes maximum duration, only three ringers allowed in the tower, and no hands-on training. This came to an abrupt end in early October when the tiered restrictions came into force, however we were able to ring one bell for the Christmas Day service. We have also wound the clock twice-weekly, pending its automation.

Since John Cutt's death, we have not had a formally-appointed Tower Leader. This was resolved in late 2020, when Margot Cutt agreed to accept our nomination, kindly approved by Rupert. Margot is an excellent organiser, and had capably rostered the ringers for the sessions in the autumn.

When we can eventually resume training, we will be very pleased to welcome anyone who wishes to join the team and learn the skills of bellringing.

Bereavement Visiting Team

Pre covid the Bereavement team offered support to families who had lost loved ones. We contacted families to offer support and two Memorial Services were held each year, which families much appreciated. Rupert's ministry, the lovely music from Derek and the choir and the lighting of the candles, were sensitive and beautiful.

6

During Covid all this has been suspended, but we have kept contacting families by telephone and offering support over the phone. After Covid we hope to restart our activities and work more closely with the pastoral team and hopefully develop a better service all round from this working together.

Ros Jackson

Choir & Organist

Like most aspects of the life of the church and beyond, this has been a year of 'highs and lows' together with 'stops and starts' for the choir in its role of enhancing the worship at St. Helens.

It was for the 2019 Christmas Carol Service that I became full-time organist. Although pleased to accept this position, it was tinged with sadness that Derek Coombes, through ill health, had stepped down. Derek had been a faithful servant to the church as a greatly appreciated organist and former church warden.

The year 2020 started well with choral input for both Communion and Morning Prayer Services. Short anthems were sung during the Eucharist and Taizé type chants to accompany prayers. Choir practices had resumed with a focus on music for Passiontide and Easter. On 17th March we celebrated the life and works of Charles Wesley. However, the following week saw the church doors closed and when we were able to re-open, social distancing regulations prohibited singing by choir or congregation. In mid July, a series of said Liturgies were introduced which were well received by all.

In November the church was closed again. Live streaming of services came to our rescue giving continuity of worship. Since the start of 2021, the church has still been closed. However, organ music has been played before and after each live streamed service along with three well known hymns, giving the watching congregation the opportunity to join in the singing in their own homes! It is a credit to the team who manage and continue to provide this service for worship every Sunday.

I know the members of the choir are more than ready to return to lead the singing as soon as is permissible.

Christians against Poverty

Pre-covid CAP had just got back to delivering a normal service and we were able to see around 4-6 new clients per month. We had contacted all our referrers and were re-building relationships to start regularly seeing new clients again in their homes.

When covid hit we had to stop seeing clients due to CAP’s model being home visits. Unfortunately Ruth had to be re-deployed in church and Sarah Cutts remained as the only CAP Debt Coach. CAP quickly changed their model to phone and video calls and got authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority to deliver the service in this way. During this time Sarah kept in contact with a lot of clients and progressed cases and got many debt free. We had the highest number of clients going debt free in 2020 - 21 clients in all. Evangelism has been difficult during covid as we have been unable to run events and see people in person.

I am hopeful that we will return to home visits soon and be able to run events. New procedures are being put in place at head office so clients are going debt free sooner. We will have to work hard to engage with our clients in person.

Churchyard

The team of Allan Crossman, Jeff Cunliffe, Don Fairclough, Gill Heap, John Hepworth, Alex Hull, John Saville and Mike Webster continued to attend on a Wednesday morning when Covid-19 circumstances permitted. Les Wilson has continued to look after the “Tree of Life”, the lower area near the seat and also the new burial plot, which is much appreciated. Allan’s help has been most valuable in maintaining the equipment for the “Mowers” and our brush-cutters.

During the summer John Hepworth and Mike came on other days to occupy themselves as they can work well away from each other. This enabled the team to undertake other work including filling in sunken graves with plugs of grass donated by Allan’s son from his work with Greensleeves. As a result the Churchyard now looks tidier than previously. Many thanks to those parishioners who have commented positively on our work, it is much appreciated.

We are eagerly awaiting the end of lockdown so we can start clearing up fallen branches and a build up of leaves on the paths and restart the annual maintenance plan and War Grave maintenance.

Alex Hull and the team.

Fabric

Introduction:

At the start of the pandemic all work on maintaining our estate of buildings was put on hold, and the focus was shifted to making our estate Covid secure. However, due to our digital sign provider having MOD clearance to carry on working the installation of the electronic signboard was still possible. Despite many objections and literally years of effort, I am sure you will all agree this provides a real encouragement to the local community and a magnificent shop window for the work of our church.

The Spring:

For much of this season the Spring has been closed, and this has allowed a massive number of updates to be undertaken. From welcoming lights outside to much needed updates on fixtures and fittings inside. From a freshly repainted colour scheme in the main shop café area to brighter LED lights being wired in throughout the building, and to cap it all we received a wonderful gift of a robust new coffee machine; replacing our well used old one just as it became uneconomical to repair. Future works includes much needed updates to the hot water and heating system, and a new multi-purpose sound system.

9

St Helen’s:

Amongst the usual maintenance a ‘highlight’ for me is that the main sanctuary is now entirety lit by LEDs. Major improvements have been to the existing sound system to maximise on our existing capability while creating a distortionfree stereo sound. The broadband network within the Church has been updated to cope with our live streaming service. We are all very excited about the live streaming installation, which provides unique new possibilities for ministry. In simple terms we can reach past our church doors and touch the lives of people in our local community without them ever having to be filled with trepidation as they cross the church threshold. We will be streaming our first funeral service this week with a wedding to follow shortly afterwards. A date for Songs of Praise has still to be arranged… we await their call.

St Paul’s:

Whilst general maintenance of the building has continued, mostly carried out by the wonderful team of volunteers led by Margaret, much of the ministry carried out at St Paul’s has been curtailed whilst we are in the pandemic. It is with great expectations that we look forward to the next few months when we can see the ministry into the community thrive again.

Concluding remarks:

I am very grateful for everyone who has helped in maintaining our estate of buildings over the last year, from professional plumbers to electricians, painters to roofers, and unpaid volunteers. I would like to make a special note of thanks to Richard Hughes who has been instrumental in resolving our sound issues and setting up our livestreaming capabilities. Godspeed, Craig

Gift Aid

The amount gifted to the Parish by the Congregation has reduced slightly, but considering the situation over the past 12months has held up remarkably well. Comparative totals for the claims made for 2019 & 2020 to HM Revenue & Customs for the refund of tax paid be Parishioners, are set out below:-

----- Start of picture text -----
||| |---|---| |2019|2020| |PCC|£25,041.25 £20,897.75| |SHYP 692.50 593.75| |CAP 1,527.50 1,528.25| |Total Claim 27,261.25 23,019.75|

Number of Regular Givers 120 (was 130 in 2019)

Explanation for the fall in Income

The number of regular givers fell by 10 during the year, in part due to Parishioners’ deaths who although included in the number of Givers, only gave for part of the year. In addition, the amount claimed for “Plate Collections” at both churches was dramatically reduced as fewer services and special events such as Weddings and Christmas Services took place, and numbers attending the services which were held were much lower because of the virus.

Grass Cutting

We managed to keep the lawns looking tidy throughout the year despite everything. Many Thanks to all concerned including the Wednesday Churchyard Team.

John Saville

Growth Groups

The group life of the church is always organic. We have chosen not to insist on what people study as each group leader knows their group. What we have built into the last eight years is opportunities to disciple the leaders of small growth groups. We have done a season of training each year using material we have learnt from and then contextualised for the group life of the parish here. This has centred around the 3DM Movement, Caesar Kalinowski and Kairos

11

Connexion a network of leaders and churches committed to seeing disciples make disciples.

This has really inspired our investing in small group leaders and seeing where God is working and encouraging them to grow.

We have recently taken the leadership team on a Micro Planting Conference where we were affirmed in our structure of Organisation serving Organism and Organism shaping Organisation.

We have encouraged all our groups to engage with the Prayer Course 1 & 2 from 24/7 which has been very powerful.

We have tried to embed the discipling culture of living a full Holy Spirit life where God has placed you. in your family, neighbourhood and community. This is the gospel message: a life lived in Christ that draws people to Jesus. Place Your Life Before God Romans 12: 1-2 The Message Version

So here’s what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life —your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life—and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Don’t become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You’ll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognise what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity, God brings the best out of you, develops well-formed maturity in you.

Mothers’ Union

Mothers’ Union branch, St Paul’s with St Helen’s Sandal Magna 2020

Our Mothers’ Union branch had our planned year turned topsy turvy as did everyone else due to the virus.

Meetings held in the Barnabas Rooms, 3rd Monday at 7.30pm:

January - AGM

February- discussion on questions for marriage preparation

March- meeting of Committee to cancel all further 2020 meetings & speakers. Wakefield Episcopal Area committee in Church House in February

September -Wakefield Area meeting in St Paul’s Church.

Bimonthly newsletter headed by our Diocesan President, Jean;

Reports from Trustees’ zoom meetings sent by our Area President, Eileen; Monthly worldwide Midday Prayers sent from Mary Sumner House, these prayers said daily and sent via MU London Facebook.

12

During the year we kept in touch by phone with our branch members, delivering all above emails personally or by forwarding emails.

During the year we lost our 100yr old member, Jean, to the virus, and Barbara and Mavis each lost their husbands of over 60yrs. We continue to offer them our love and support.

We hope to resume our regular activities later this year (2021). All welcome.

Rose Lee Branch Leader

Oasis

Faith, fellowship, companionship, good conversation and lovely food, this is what Oasis seniors is known for. In the months before Covid we had moved towards cosy chats over Afternoon Tea, which we were all finding much more manageable, as well as our annual trip to the Wetherby Whaler for fish and chips.

Although we have been unable to meet up in person for the last 12 months, together with Sally and Margaret we established a telephone network connecting us with each other and enabling us to keep in touch. Just before Christmas Anne and Janet enjoyed lovely telephone chats with those we had not heard from. Christmas cards were hand delivered or posted to all our guests and volunteers (approximately 90 people).

We are not sure what will happen in the future. We hope to continue to strengthen the beautiful friendships that have developed over the phone these past months.

Parish Office

I was really pleased to be able to take on the role of Parish Administrator last summer and to become part of a team of six working alongside me from the Parish Office at St Helen’s. Denise Chivers is largely responsible for the administration of Funerals and Tree of Life Interments and Anne Francos is leading on Weddings. During lockdown the office has been closed to visitors but we have still kept going behind the scenes, with Janet Crossman our Treasurer mixing working from home with time in the office. As we emerge from lockdown we will be joined by Angela Elphick who is our Reader and will be leading on Worship and Laura Truter who will focus on Children and Young People. We trust that between us we will be able to cover the office and serve the Lord here in this small corner of His Kingdom

13

The office was involved in the following Occasional Offices in 2020: Baptisms - 5 Weddings - 4 Funerals - 24 Burials - 10

Interments in the Tree of Life - 10

Portobello Community Forum

Pre-covid the Community Centre was running with 11 sessions, all for the community. We had a good income stream and had a regular giver helping support our more vulnerable community members. TLG Make Lunch had started and we were beginning to grow the families attending. Our last Make Lunch club ran during February half term.

During Covid all the groups stopped meeting apart from the Sewing Club and the Craft and Photography Group. During the most recent lockdown no groups have been meeting. Easter 2020 we started delivering Hampers of Hope to around 18 families. These were families the school had flagged as the most vulnerable. We continued delivering until September 2020 and then during school holidays. In the past year we have delivered the equivalent of around 7000 meals to families.

We hope that as lockdown relaxes the groups will return to the Community Centre and rental income will increase and people can start to socialise again. We are looking at starting a new expression of church at Portobello on a Tuesday morning called Grace Space. We hope to be running TLG Make Lunch again, inviting all the families we have helped over the past year with Hampers of Hope.

Staff Team

We said thank you to Marisa Kapp for her five years of faithful service as Parish Administrator. She has been a bright light of welcome and joy at the heart of parish life, as well as a brilliant administrator. We are glad that she will be carrying on with her wonderful ministry at Boogie Woogie Tots, when it is possible to resume.

Such was her capacity that it has taken three people to fill her shoes! We now have a gifted team of Denise Chivers and Anne Francos, headed up by Ruth McCallum, who will be vital in carrying us through this time of transition.

16

We are blessed that Angela Elphick has been called to serve as Reader in our parish for such a time as this, when we need her trained skills. Angela worked in intensive care during the first lockdown, and continues to work for the NHS. Because of the responsibility she is carrying she will be working for the PCC one day a week to lead the worship, preaching and staff teams during the interregnum.

SHYP St Helen’s Youth Project

It has been an absolute joy and pleasure to co ordinate St Helen’s Youth Project for nearly 20 years!! I love children and young people! They have brought so much life and colour to my life over the years. Thank you to everyone who has volunteered and given their time so that children and young people have felt welcome in the church family but also welcomed into God’s amazing love for each one. Also to all the SHYP mates who have faithfully supported this work financially and prayerfully.

As you can see from our SHYP leaflet this work has involved all the work we have been able to do through the church into the community. SO in no particular order….. these are……..

Groups in church, Festivals, all the Childrens work on Portobello, Assemblies in our church and community school, Pathfinders, Youth Alpha, weekends away, Praise parties, Childrens Church, Boogie Woogies and Toddlin, Youth Group, Sleep overs, Hilfield, Nativity Plays, Make Lunch, All age worship, Celebrations at Christmas, Easter, Summer and wherever we wanted to celebrate!

I have worked with the most amazing leaders called to nurture the children and young people in this parish. We were blessed with 10 Careforce workers over 10 years who brought so much to our lives, children and youth work and to our worship.

I want to particularly mention Mavis Easter, Shelagh Townend and Julie Owen who were here when we came and 26 years later still serve through this ministry. Faithful and such a blessing to those in their care. Thank you all x

Toddlers:

Two beautiful toddler groups were stopped in their tracks. Toddlin at St Helen’s and Boogie Woogie Tots at St Pauls. Relationships have continued as much as they can and these groups will return with more love and appreciation than ever when it is safe to do so.

18

Thank you to Denise Chivers and Marisa Kapp for their leadership of these groups and families.

Children:

Like everyone the face to face work of families and children stopped in mid March 2020. We were having a wonderful season of joy and Jesus family life when Covid struck.

(See APCM report 2019)

Since March 2020 we have mapped out our families on the fringe and those in the church and made sure there is pastoral care and links family to family. We have really had to trust the Lord for these relationships but when I hear stories of kindness and love in action I am encouraged that the body of Christ is loving one another and loving their neighbour.

The families have had the hardest time in lockdown and we need to love them back.

Also encourage them where they have been out in their neighbourhoods and places of calling. They need rest, to be blessed and not asked to do lots back at church when we open.

They are EXHAUSTED!

We have done no specific online connection with the children through this season of Covid.

19

When we realised this was going to be a long haul and recognised that after the Spring of shock, the Summer of reprieve we were into the winter of lockdown!!! We identified 70 families we had sent weekly letters to but now realised needed a personal visit. With these 70 families we created a Christingle bag for them to make their own Christingle Oranges and added age appropriate activities and treats for each child. These we delivered to their doors personally with a precious time of connection and message: “We have not forgotten you”. This was SO appreciated by everyone. This created a wonderful zoom Christingle event.

We then tried Families@4 on line but it hasn’t taken off because people are zoomed out!

Our next plan is to re visit every family with an Easter bag for all the family. Again personalised and delivered with love and in person with people who are in relationship to each family.

We are praying that our leaving week at the end of May will be an opportunity to bring 30 people at a time into the vicarage to share cake and enjoy fellowship. We will have families on one day and hopefully they will pick up an invitation to a summer picnic in July where they will have music, games and a prayer tent. Families will also be invited to give to African Connection.

The future of the families work is in the safe hands of Liz Rowe who heads up the youth team, Laura Truter who is the Families co-ordinator and Liz Morton who leads the Diocesan Team for children and Youth and will be supporting Liz and Laura as I leave this post.

Youth:

Youth Alpha from January to March 2020 saw a wonderful turnout of 27 young people for 11 consecutive weeks on Sunday evenings 6-7.30pm. It was a joy to see a group of 11-16 year olds on age specific tables engaging with the Youth Alpha DVD’s and enjoying their tables being facilitated by leaders of the youth team and a couple of parents. There was an exciting energy of faith explored and big questions asked. I believe it was very significant in the lives of each young person.

Again this thriving season was suddenly stopped in its tracks in March 2020.

The Shield Youth team leaders moved quickly online and met twice a month with the young people. They realised zoom needed to be smaller and age specific. So they moved into two groups and kept an energy of meeting, creative activities and faith based learning together. This worked during the first lockdown. It was a novelty, there was laughter, a willingness to try new things, video clips and a light hearted feel to it all.

When things opened up a bit in the summer they chose charities to support and used the Tear Fund quiz to bake cakes and biscuits, sell and deliver them to families who were taking part.

20

We also managed an open air bonfire session where among the fun they shared deeply about how they were feeling.

A year on the numbers have fallen and there is a sense of zoom fatigue and many just missing their peers so much in person they don’t want to engage on zoom.

The team have not given up and they meet with those who still come on faithfully and are blessed to be a part of it. Liz Rowe as team leader lets everyone know each time they meet what they are doing. This means even though they may not join in they do belong and can have a go at the creative activity off line (ie making pancakes). The sewing of seeds and the sense of belonging is there, the youth team have also been the link for those families to church. We are so grateful to each of them:

Ed and Beth Brindley, Mark Wilkinson, Rachel and Andy Chapman for their commitment to the youth.

As we open up, the future is there for our young people with opportunities to lead, learn, serve and grow in their faith. Please pray for them, listen to them and bless them whenever you can.

Schools’ Work:

We have not been able to go into school at all this past year. I have been so encouraged by Fran Waddington from Sandal Castle Primary who has created

21

an RE syllabus for each teacher to take into their classroom and do creatively. Her words to me were “ Sally we have watched you for years, now we need to put that learning into practise”. This has been an encouragement to me.

We were taking weekly assemblies with Year 1-6 in Sandal Castle and Walton Primary. It has been so hard to see these and all the Christmas Celebrations have to be put on hold. BUT Sandal Castle have done some beautiful work. Every class created Christingles in school and talked through the meaning of the symbols as a way of beginning their Christmas season without being able to sing. We did bring the Year 6’s into church a class at a time to worship together at Christmas. This was very special and reminds us that “small is beautiful”.

I want to thank Julian Finn and Laura Truter for there assemblies and support and I know they will be back when the time is right.

I also want to thank Nichola Russell the head teacher at Sandal Castle Primary, our church school for her unwavering dedication to the children and families of this parish. We have worked closely with Andrew Carter the deputy head responsible for inclusion who works closely with the children and families that face huge challenges in their lives.

From April to December we delivered weekly hampers to 20 families (140 individuals) Hampers of Hope, this replaced our Make Lunch ministry which we had just begun through TLG but couldn’t continue because of Covid.

Since January we have supported the schools food bank with £100 of protein each week and have delivered 40 hampers during February half term and will be delivering 30 hampers during the two Easter weeks, and working with the school as they come out of lock down supporting families in need. This has all been possible because of the giving of our congregations and a local business man who supports the work of Portobello Community Forum.

Sally Martin

St Paul’s, Walton

Last year we lost a faithful servant of Jesus, Joan Witts. Her death was a great shock and sadness to her family and to us all, and we include Allan and Joan’s family in our prayers. Joan loved worship, and she loved serving at The Spring as a brilliant Manager of the Shop for two decades. We miss her buoyant spirit.

Two joyful events took place either side of the first lockdown, the Weddings of faithful members of St Pauls’s, Helen and Matthew Tweedle. It was a great joy to officiate at these weddings in St Paul’s and St Helen’s, especially as Matthew was one of the first babies I baptised.

St Paul’s has continued to serve the village of Walton in many caring and pastoral ways, and we look forward to opening up the Barnabas Rooms for

22

community groups when it is safe to do so. I am grateful to Margaret Walker who has been pastoring the congregation, and to Susan Lee who has helped her in the leading of worship. Rupert Martin

The Spring

Serving everyone with the loving care and welcome of Jesus Christ.

Well 2020 has been anything but a normal year for all of us involved with the Spring. When I think of the Spring I immediately think of all the characteristics that we share with a Spring - abundance, restorative, refreshing, a constant, deep, a meeting place – all of which it has been almost impossible to be during the pandemic.

One thing that has been constant is the ever changing way in which we have had to operate to keep the Spring going – a bit like the river that feeds the Spring , its water courses forever changing their way, meandering across strange lands to ensure the Spring it feeds remains full of life giving water – the very essence of Jesus ministry and ultimately our mission – to serve everyone with the love of Jesus

23

So what have our strange lands looked like –

As we look now to a brighter future, and a post pandemic landscape - I heard some one say recently that there is light at the end of the tunnel and it’s not a train – I cant tell you how much we hope that is the case.

We are currently operating as a Takeaway only but look to re-open more extensively on 13th April and cannot wait to welcome folk back into The Shop – Margaret and her team have been hard at work ensuring that the layout works, people feel safe and that there is a sense of almost normal . The Café, whilst still operating as a takeaway, can offer some seating in the Garden, until indoor seating can be made available on 17th May.

As to the future – lets just say hope filled, we are wise enough I believe to take things one day at a time and to make changes as and when needed and we also now have some additional Directors to provide additional support and some future proofing.

One thing we can be sure of is that our Spring will continue to pour out our saviours love into the community and be that source of abundant welcome and hospitality to all, a place of inclusivity and love driven by our passion to serve and share our love of Jesus Christ in this holy space & beautiful community .

I thank God for all that we have learnt this year, I thank you, our PCC for your unfailing support and just the most massive thank you to Rupert & Sally for entrusting the Spring into my care.

Women’s Fellowship

We were looking forward to our programme, of a variety of speakers, but have not met, due to COVID-19, since March 2020, when we held our Lent service. Little did we know then, how things were going to turn out, but it was a fitting reflection, on how we look at Lent as a time of inward searching and how we may look with more compassion on the needs of others.

Continuing with our community charitable support, we sent a donation to the Wakefield Hospice, in lieu of the fundraising we were unable to have, which was much appreciated.Whilst sticking to the lockdown rules to keep safe and well, we have tried to maintain contact with our members, in an effort to support and keep all up to date with any developments within our church and community activities. There has been much sharing of ‘ups and downs’, especially remembering those of our church who have sadly passed away during the last year, but also celebrating with those who have had ‘special’ birthdays or anniversaries.

Hopefully, we shall ‘pick up where we left off’ when meetings can safely resume……and members feel confident enough to get out and about…..that is our aim ! We shall look forward to getting back together, (no doubt with a bit of cake ! ) as we catch up with everyone. When ? Time will tell !

Are you interested in joining us ? Just turn up and try us out…..you are assured of a warm welcome. Meetings are normally held on the second Monday of the month, at 19.30, in the Emmaus rooms at the rear of the church.

Sandal Magna Parochial Church Council

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 December 2020

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2020. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

The trustees also adopt the Church Accounting Regulations 2006.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

The object of Sandal Magna PCC is to promote in the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the Church.

Our mission is that with Jesus.. the lost are found, the found grow and the lonely are enfolded.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

The PCC produces a separate document, the Annual Review, which highlights the activities of all the groups within the PCC throughout 2020.

The Spring Community Cafe Limited is a wholly owned subsidiary of the PCC. The company's trading activities are reflected in the company's own financial statements. The PCC received a gift aid donation of £20,994 (2019:£39,738) from the company during the year.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves policy

The Trustees have considered the level of reserves they wish to retain, appropriate to the Charity's needs. This is based on the Charity's size and the level of financial commitment held.

At the year end, the unrestricted reserves were £257,771 (2019: £268,953).

Going concern and the impact of Covid-19

The closure of our two churches for much of 2020 had a direct impact on our collections. Budget 2020 £10,000 Actual 2020 £4,374

Planned giving and the resulting gift aid receipts have held up well. Budget 2020 £98,000 Actual 2020 £94,753

Closure of buildings diminished our income from hiring out our rooms to various groups. Budget 2020 £6,000 Actual 2020 £1,627

Other income streams were healthy including Car Park rental and Fees for funerals and burials.

As a result we set a budget for 2021 which was £20,000 lower than 2020, to take into account the slow recovery which is anticipated in 2021. This reduced budget was also made possible by the retirement at the end of May of two key workers, and the consequent saving on salaries and expenses.

Sandal Magna PCC is in a healthy, sustainable state, and will weather the storm of Covid-19, thanks to the ongoing giving by church members, the steps we have taken to reduce costs, and the hard work of many unpaid volunteers.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Sandal Magna Parochial Church Council

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Sandal Magna Parochial Church Council

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Sandal Magna Parochial Church Council (the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2020.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the Trust 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 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of ICAEW which is one of the listed bodies.

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:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. 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.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2020

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value.

The financial statements include all transactions, assets and liabilities for which the PCC is responsible in law. They do not include the accounts of church groups that owe their main affiliation to another body, nor those that are informal gathering of church member.

The PCC has taken advantage under the Charities Act 2011 from preparing group accounts.

Going concern

The financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis which assumes that the charity will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.

The trustees have considered the risks and uncertainties arising from the Covid 19 pandemic and are taking a proactive approach to reviewing and adjusting planning and spending as well as amending the way the charity operates in line with local and national restrictions. Whilst the outcome of the pandemic is beyond any normal range of predictability, the trustees believe that the charity's financial statements are appropriately prepared under the going concern basis.

Financial reporting standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions

The charity has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland':

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Land and buildings - 2% on cost Church equipment - 10% on cost

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Tangible fixed assets

Fixtures and fittings - 5% on cost Computer equipment - 25% on cost

Consecrated and beneficed property of any kind is excluded from the financial statements by s.10(2)(a) of the Charities Act 2011.

Movable church furnishings held by the vicar and church wardens on special trust for the PCC and which require a faculty for disposal are accounted for as inalienable property, listed in the church's inventory, which can be inspected (at any reasonable time).

Taxation

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

Restricted funds represent (a) income from trusts or endowments which may be expended only on those restricted objects provided in the terms of the trust or bequest, and (b) donations or grants received for a specific object or invited by the PCC for a specific object. The funds may only be expended on the specific object for which they were given. Any balance remaining unspent at the end of each year must be carried forward as a balance on that fund. The PCC does not usually invest separately for each fund. Where there is no separate investment, interest is apportioned to individual funds on an average balance basis.

Unrestricted funds are general funds which can be used for PCC ordinary purposes.

Sandal Magna Parochial Church Council

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 December 2020

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2020. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

The trustees also adopt the Church Accounting Regulations 2006.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

The object of Sandal Magna PCC is to promote in the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the Church.

Our mission is that with Jesus.. the lost are found, the found grow and the lonely are enfolded.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

The PCC produces a separate document, the Annual Review, which highlights the activities of all the groups within the PCC throughout 2020.

The Spring Community Cafe Limited is a wholly owned subsidiary of the PCC. The company's trading activities are reflected in the company's own financial statements. The PCC received a gift aid donation of £20,994 (2019:£39,738) from the company during the year.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves policy

The Trustees have considered the level of reserves they wish to retain, appropriate to the Charity's needs. This is based on the Charity's size and the level of financial commitment held.

At the year end, the unrestricted reserves were £257,771 (2019: £268,953).

Going concern and the impact of Covid-19

The closure of our two churches for much of 2020 had a direct impact on our collections. Budget 2020 £10,000 Actual 2020 £4,374

Planned giving and the resulting gift aid receipts have held up well. Budget 2020 £98,000 Actual 2020 £94,753

Closure of buildings diminished our income from hiring out our rooms to various groups. Budget 2020 £6,000 Actual 2020 £1,627

Other income streams were healthy including Car Park rental and Fees for funerals and burials.

As a result we set a budget for 2021 which was £20,000 lower than 2020, to take into account the slow recovery which is anticipated in 2021. This reduced budget was also made possible by the retirement at the end of May of two key workers, and the consequent saving on salaries and expenses.

Sandal Magna PCC is in a healthy, sustainable state, and will weather the storm of Covid-19, thanks to the ongoing giving by church members, the steps we have taken to reduce costs, and the hard work of many unpaid volunteers.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Sandal Magna Parochial Church Council

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Sandal Magna Parochial Church Council

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Sandal Magna Parochial Church Council (the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2020.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the Trust 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 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of ICAEW which is one of the listed bodies.

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:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. 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.

Sandal Magna Parochial Church Council

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2020

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value.

The financial statements include all transactions, assets and liabilities for which the PCC is responsible in law. They do not include the accounts of church groups that owe their main affiliation to another body, nor those that are informal gathering of church member.

The PCC has taken advantage under the Charities Act 2011 from preparing group accounts.

Going concern

The financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis which assumes that the charity will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.

The trustees have considered the risks and uncertainties arising from the Covid 19 pandemic and are taking a proactive approach to reviewing and adjusting planning and spending as well as amending the way the charity operates in line with local and national restrictions. Whilst the outcome of the pandemic is beyond any normal range of predictability, the trustees believe that the charity's financial statements are appropriately prepared under the going concern basis.

Financial reporting standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions

The charity has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland':

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Land and buildings - 2% on cost Church equipment - 10% on cost

Sandal Magna Parochial Church Council

Notes to the Financial Statements - continued for the Year Ended 31 December 2020

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Tangible fixed assets

Fixtures and fittings - 5% on cost Computer equipment - 25% on cost

Consecrated and beneficed property of any kind is excluded from the financial statements by s.10(2)(a) of the Charities Act 2011.

Movable church furnishings held by the vicar and church wardens on special trust for the PCC and which require a faculty for disposal are accounted for as inalienable property, listed in the church's inventory, which can be inspected (at any reasonable time).

Taxation

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

Restricted funds represent (a) income from trusts or endowments which may be expended only on those restricted objects provided in the terms of the trust or bequest, and (b) donations or grants received for a specific object or invited by the PCC for a specific object. The funds may only be expended on the specific object for which they were given. Any balance remaining unspent at the end of each year must be carried forward as a balance on that fund. The PCC does not usually invest separately for each fund. Where there is no separate investment, interest is apportioned to individual funds on an average balance basis.

Unrestricted funds are general funds which can be used for PCC ordinary purposes.
