BM said there was nothing to report on Deanery Synod as there have been no meetings over the past year due to the pandemic situation.

BA explained the printed accounts; they are for the period March 2020 to April 2021. He stated that this year’s accounts are bound to be affected by the Covid 19 pandemic; however, it is not clear as yet, by how much.
Weddings and funerals have been affected by church closures and so cash collection which would normally be taken at these services have been badly affected. Planned giving has held up well. Parish share payments were reduced last year and will be reviewed later this year. Acceptance of this report was proposed by PC seconded by AG & passed unanimously.

14. A.O.B
14.1 Letter from Judith Featherstone and Sylvia Rutter.
EB read out a letter fro JF and SR, informing the APCM that the Luncheon Club at St Alban’s would not be reopening, even when restrictions are eased. It was not an easy decision to make, as the club has been running for almost 40 years. However it was felt that because of the health issues and ages of the attendees, no chances could be taken with their health. The bank account will be closed and any money given to St Alban’s church as a donation.
Meeting closed with the Grace at 7.23 pm
Secretary Report of the PCC
Aims and Purposes
The PCC of the Parish of the Upper Skerne has the responsibility of co-operating with the incumbent, once appointed, in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. It also has maintenance responsibilities for the Churches in the Parish.
Objectives and Activities
Since December 2020 Parish of the Upper Skerne has been without a full time Team Rector. The Rev Elizabeth Bland continues part time as Team Vicar with the temporary help of associate priest Rev Peter Robson.
The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our churches and to become part of our parish community in the Parish of the Upper
5
Skerne. The PCC maintains an overview of worship throughout the parish and makes suggestions on how our services can involve the many groups that live within our parish. Our services and worship put faith into practice through prayer and scripture, music and sacrament.
When planning our activities for the year, we have considered the Commission's guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the supplementary guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. In particular, we try to enable ordinary people to live out their faith as part of our parish community through:
-
Worship and prayer; learning about the gospel; and developing their knowledge and trust in Jesus.
-
Provision of pastoral care for people living in the parish.
-
Missionary and outreach work.
To facilitate this work it is important that we maintain the fabric of our Churches.
Now that the worst of the pandemic seems to be over, churches have returned to a fortnightly pattern of worship, with the exception of St Alban’s which has a monthly Holy Communion service on the fourth Sunday of the month. Services continue to be available via Zoom from both St Edmund’s and St Michael’s and home communions are now being offered. Contact has been kept with parishioners through regular phone calls from both clergy and laity. The parish notice sheets are now produced fortnightly and continue to be delivered both in person and also by email. Many thanks to all those who hand deliver the notice sheets. This has been very much appreciated for all those who are shielding.
As part of our whole parish preparation for embarking on the process of advertising for a new incumbent in the Upper Skerne, and after taking advice from the Archdeacon of Auckland, Rick Simpson, all governance committee members were invited to attend 3 half day away sessions. These sessions, led by Rev Martin Anderson, were designed to help the parish, as a whole, to work closely together and show evidence to the Diocese that it is ready to move forward to work with and welcome a new incumbent. Julie Robson PCC Secretary
. Achievements and Performance
This is the sixteenth full year of meetings of the PCC of the Parish of the Upper Skerne. The PCC met on the following dates in 2021 – February, May, July and November, with 2 special meetings in February and March. The first four meetings were conducted on Zoom because of restrictions on meeting in person but by July restrictions were lifted and the meetings were held in person.
There were two meeting of the PCC Standing Committee in July and November. There have also been 2 PCC meetings in February and May 2022.
Church closures due to the Coronavirus pandemic, have limited opportunities to address the themes chosen for last year and so they will remain the same for this year. 1. Diocesan Priorities – Growth, Families & Young People, Poverty

A Parish Recovery Group was set up at the start of the pandemic in order to look at alternative ways of worshipping as well as leading the parish through some very difficult times. The group, consisting of Rev Elizabeth Bland, John Burrows, Bill Armstrong, Michael King, Brian Mutch, Phillipa Cooper, Michele Maccallam, Julie Robson and Rev Peter Robson, now meet less regularly due to the resumption of normal church services. Meetings are held on Zoom and have been very useful to implement a parish wide response and return to usual practices.
Communication: email continues to be the preferred method of sending and receiving information. We have a Facebook page & a website, which is proving popular. We have also set up a Twitter page to keep people updated. PCC Minutes are issued to members via email. DCC minutes are received following DCC meetings in each of the churches.

Church Wardens’ Report
Parish of the Upper Skerne Churchwardens’ Report to APCM 29 May 2022
The two Churchwardens attended a Swearing in Service online and have attended various training events during the year since May 2021
One, or both, of the wardens have attended every DCC and all, except one, PCC meeting along with Ministerial Team meetings, Worship Leaders’ meetings and the various meetings of the Parish Recovery Group which has planned and successfully maintained the re-opening of all five churches in the Parish, even with the revisions of Government and Church of England Guidance or Regulations. The arrangements for Funerals, Weddings and Baptisms have been kept constantly under review.
Faculties have been applied for at St Mary Magdalene’s, for the re-ordering of the Garden of Remembrance at East End Cemetery, and for the new boiler installation at St Michael’s. Emergency repairs to the retaining wall at St Michael’s were arranged under List B approval from Archdeacon Rick. The transfer of maintenance of St Edmund’s graveyard to the local authority is anticipated to be completed in the near future.

The transfer of the Parish Office to St Albans has shown to be an excellent decision. We thank Julie for all her hard work.
The Wardens have continued to work closely Elizabeth and Peter seeking to ensure that they both have our full support.

- Sedgefield Area Churches Together Annual Report 2021 2022
Another year when Covid has significantly impacted our lives; it has forced us to reevaluate some of the things we do and our outlook on life in general. Despite restricitions, SACT has had an active year.
Cafe COP – one of the first opportunities for people to meet together. A time to reflect on our responsibility to the planet. Some wonderful displays and stalls in St Edmund's and in the Parish Hall.
Advent Group – A good representation from each of the denominations. Meaningful discussion followed from Chris Humble's lead in these sessions.
Tree at the Christmas Tree Festival using decorations made at Cafe COP
Carols in the car park – we were looking forward to this again as it was so successful last time. The weather defeated us though. However, Carols on the Green did go ahead with a large gathering of people
Taize Service – a lovely reflective service organised held at St Albans.
Lent Day – A study day, led by Chris, that was well represented by people from the different denominations. The informal feedback afterwards was very positive.
SACT continues to enable the different Christian denominations to work collaboratively. I am proud of what it has achieved. I hope and pray that the Christian message may continue to be shared and celebrated in the Sedgefield area and beyond.
Judith King May 2022 Moderator SACT
Safeguarding Report
Safeguarding Issues:
Over the past year there have been no safeguarding issues.
10
: Safeguarding in the Parish of the Upper Skerne
Legally, the Parish has a number of requirements and responsibilities. The PCC were provided with all documents necessary to comply with their obligations. A file of information including guidance notes, checklists, policies and procedures were distributed to all five churches. Together with posters which must be displayed in each church.
Safeguarding Training
A named contact for each church agreed to help with Safeguarding within their church and helped considerably with sorting out training requirements that some parishioners would need to undertake to comply with Diocesan policy.
It will be 3 years in September since the last whole parish safeguarding training was done and so Julie Robson, as safeguarding officer, will review this with the Diocesan Safeguarding Team to establish what refresher training needs to be undertaken.
There are several levels of training in operation.
Basic on-line training , for all church officers and anyone who has to complete any other higher level of training.
Foundation course is also now available on line. Recommended for anyone who has a role which involves work with children, young people or vulnerable adults. Also for church wardens, PCC members, vergers, bell tower captains and bell ringing teachers. Leadership for people who lead activities for children and young people and/or adults who may be vulnerable. Also church wardens, parish safeguarding officer, bell tower captains and bell ringing teachers.
Safer Recruitment and People Manangement for anyone involved in the recruitment or line management of church officers (employees, elected members and volunteers), those responsible for administering DBS, church wardens and parish safeguarding officer.

4. PCC Treasurer’s Report
This year’s accounts show a welcome return to a more normal situation, following the effects of the pandemic last year. Despite the fact that church buildings were again closed for worship between January and March, all of the figures for giving, cash collections and fees show an increase on 2020.
In addition, a reduction in parish share payments of £7,800 and the receipt of Gift Aid repayments for both 2019 and 2020, helped the parish towards an overall surplus of £21,040.
All our churches saw a surplus in 2021. The surpluses were, at least in part, explained by the fact that we received two years of Gift Aid repayments.
Overall income increased by £70,000 to a more normal amount of £153,724. This was partly due to two years’ Gift Aid repayment (which brought in an additional £13,950). Other sources of income also increased. Planned giving increased by £2,850. The return of baptisms, weddings and funerals led to an increase in collections at those services of £7,256, although it should be noted that this is only 50% of the fall in collections last year. Income from fees increased by £15,180 – more than the drop in fees income last year. Fund-raising activities produced an increase of £3,320 although, again, this does not represent a return to the situation in 2019. Overall expenditure also increased by only £4,120, despite the reduction in our parish share. This can largely be explained by a return to more normal levels of activity in our churches.
Planned giving was quite steady showing an increase of 5.5%. This represents an encouraging feature as it is slightly above the level of giving in 2019. 2021 saw a recovery in other collections, although these are still 30% below the 2019 level. This is explained by the continuing impact of the pandemic on baptisms, weddings and funerals.
The decision was made to reduce further the amount pledged for 2021 Parish Share payments, beyond the reductions forced on us in 2020 by the pandemic. The diocese reduced its request for 2022, acknowledging the fact that we had to draw on our reserves to meet the costs of the pandemic. Now that our financial situation shows signs of recovery, we should be prepared to face an increased Parish Share request from the diocese.
