Holy Trinity Church, Stevenage Annual Report of the Paro¢hial Church Council for the Year Ended 31 December 2023 Aim and purposes The charitable purpose of Holy Trinity's Parochial Church Council IPCC) is the advancemenl of religion. The principal function of the PCC is to support the advancement of Ihe Christian religion by promoting, in co-operation with the Vicar, in the geographical, ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the Church.. pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. In addition, the PCC has responsibility to the Anglican Congregation at the Church of Christ the King Local Ecumenical Project located within the parish at Filey Close, Symonds Green, Stevenage {currently the sole congregation there, as Ihere are no ecumenical partners at presentl, and maintenance fesponsibilities for the Church buildings and Churchyard of Holy Trinity, High Street, stevenage, and the house at 413 Scarborough Avenue, Stevenage. Objectives and actlvltles The PCC'S charitable objects {'Promoting in the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the Church,) are primarily focused on the advancement of religion, which is recognised as a charitable purpose having public benefit. The PCC works to enable the church to play its part in Christian mission to the world,. to co-operate with the vicar in sharing leadership; to care for the buildings and churchyard so that they may be best suited for the purpose of the church's ministry and mission,. to ensure legal compliance with charity law and ecclesiastical law, in particular in the areas of finance, employment and appointments,. and to be a channel of consultation within the wider Church through its synodical structures on matters that affect the Church locally and nalionally. Using the language on the gov.uk site.. we provide and maintain a place of worship, generally advance the Christian religion, educate people about the religion, provide pastoral care and outreach, and support missionary and evangelical activities. We provide buildings I facilities l open Spa (as mentioned above- th8 church, churchyard, and house), provide services {community activities to combat social isolation, including an Art Club), and make grants to organisations (giving a portion of our planned income to other charities). We help adherents of the Christian religion, but also the general public, especially people living within our geographical parish, including children and the 81derly. In addition, the PCC'S a¢tivities as listed below have further public benefits., for example. teaching and taking assemblies offer advancement of education which is recognised as a charitable purpose having public benefit. Donations to other charities and our own projects provide public benefits in the relief of povety, need, and social isolation, whether wilhin or outside the ecclesiastical parish. often for minority groups with particular needs such as the elderly. Moreover, as a result of activity in the pursuit of the advancement of the Christian religion, the PCC has custody of property and of records, materials and artefacts of significance to the cultural and religious heritage, maintenance of which is undertaken by the PCC. Achievements and performance Worship and Prayer The PCC is keen to offer a range of seTvi¢es during the week and over the course of the year Ihat our mmunity find both beneficial and spiritually fulfilling. For example, Morning and Evening Prayer and SeNices of the Word provide the opportunity to hear and reflect upon a number of Scriplure passages read by and within a small gathering, while our Eucharists engage the senses more widely. with the provision of Communion. We provide a range of music on Sunday mornings, with a leaning toward the more traditional styles of hymn at Holy Trinity, and a mix of contemporary choruses with traditional hymns at Church of Christ the King. Much of our corporate worship is accessSble by internel &lor telephone for those who are house-bound or ill. We offer an 8 am Eucharist once 8 month. without hymns, for Ihose who prefer a quieter, earlier service, with less variation in the liturgy.
The PCC continues to seek ways in which to invofve young families in the life of the church, inviting baptism families to Sunday worship. and providing material for the very young alongside the traditional sermon. Deanery Synod Three members ofthe PCC sit on the Deanery Synod. This provides the PCC with an important link befvjeen the parish and the wider structures of the church. Pastoral Care The PCC and church more widely identified the lonely as a priority group for outreach, desiring lo combat social isolation. We organise a monthly Friendship Cafe as well as a Coffee, Craft & Chat drop in al Christ the King. At Holy Trinity the Art Club drop-in is space for anyone but especially the lonely and vulnerable. In turn, some Art Club members enhance the worship life of our church with original athork. The Holy Trinity Parish Rooms continue to seNe as a regular meetings venue for a number of community groups including the Old Town Toddlers and Rainbow Guides. The daytime open church policy (now Sunday- Thursday) permits casual visitors to the church to find a quiet pla for prayer and reflection. Votive candles are made available free of charge. A Pastoral Care group meets regularly to Consider the needs of those in the parish unable to attend church due to sickness or infirmity. Home Communion is taken lo the house-bound, as requested. The Parish Magazine "Croziert continues to receive favourable comment and support both within and beyond the parish family. Mission and Evangelism During Ihe year, the PCC felt able to continue to support Ihe religious educational needs of school children via the Bridgebuilders group in Stevenage. An ongoing commitment is in place to support the pioneer mission work of the Oak Church in Stevenage which seeks to engage with the young people of the town.
