Applications have been submitted to formally close the Millennium Churchyard which has

Objectives and Activltles
The PCC is committed to enabling as ll&qDy people as po￿]}1e to wot5bip at Holy Trinity 8nd
to becorne part of the church community at Holy TtiDity. The PCC maintains an overview of
worship and activities throughout the Parish and makes suggestions on how our 8¢rvi¢e
w(vship ar&d activities can iDvolve the many gTOUPS that live within our ￿lSIL Our services
and worship put faith into pzactice through prayer and Scripture, rn￿81¢ and sacrament.
When plamiing actTYities forthe yw, we have considered the Clwity Commission's
guidanc¢ on public b¢n¢fit an¢ in parttcular, the supplementary guidall￿ for clwities for thc
advancement of r¢ligion.
Tbroughout this year we bave been in a pmcess of con5ultstion and reflection to discern the
way forward for the church alld develop a new vision which will direct our financial and
organisational priorities for the years alTh(L
Tbe outcom¢ of that period has resulted in our Vision Statement that Holy Trtnity Chuwb
would k 'A deep well of God's bealing to Southwell and beyoD(L' In this we seek to
eawsulate the sweep of God's re4Jemptive WO￿ throughout history in taking that which is
broken through the effects of sin and restoring it througb the sovereign work of the Father,
the death and resutrection of the SOD, and the empoweTing work of the Holy SpiTit.
We recognise that every one ofus carries woun(Ls, limitations, and longings we cannot fix on
our Osvn. yet we believe in th¢ GTrJ WI￿ heal4 renews, and brings hope wh¢re it has run dry,
and our commitm¢nt is to become a spiritual well at the heart of our tow￿ where peoplc
encounter the r&storit)g, life-giving presence of Go
This viston is worked out through the lens of thrK focus words that we provisionally call our
'deep wells,: Know l Grow l Go
We are continuing the process of clarIf￿g our vision and PTiOTities for this Coming year,
knowing that to facilitate this worL it is important that we maintsin the fabric of the church
of Holy TIinity.
