Review of the Yèar The ministry and mission of the church continues to be in accordance with our vision statement.. reaching out in love. growin9 in faith, welcoming all. We have held the Confirmation Service for the deanery, have relaunched our wellbeing group. created a new website for the church and increased our online activity, widened our social events and re-created our social committee, renewed many of our service booklets, and held weekly Bible studies throughout Advent and Lent, to name a few activities we have been engaged with during the last twelve months. We continue to be part of the Welland Local Mission Partnership and as such are involved with the life of other local churches, which have been working together more the past twelve mnths. One of the more significant activities we have been engaged with. is hiring a Children's and Youth Worker {part-time} from September 2023. Since then we have revised our all age5 services and started a Messy Church in April 2024. We continue to focus on environmental issues and spent several Services focusing on caring for our world last year. We are pleased to now have a page on the Inclusive Church website, marked Racial Justice Sunday in February 2024, and at the PCC meeting in January 2024 the PCC voted unanimously to support the use of prayers of blessing for same sex couples within existing worship. In Ortober 2023 our worship focused on generosity {having looked at stewardship earlier that year) and we produced a generosity booklet in paper format and online. Also in October 2023, we re-introduced the 8am Sunday service being a Holy Communion service. We are currently working on planning a new series of monthly themed services, considering introducing new children's groups, and prayerfully thinking about the best use of the church and Green School buildings lincluding heating the spaces), among other activities we are currently engaged in. This, of course, continues alongside the usual life of our church and parish. Sadly, during the last twelve rnonths, a number of people from our church community have passed away and others are significantly unwell. An important part of our ministry is pastoral, particularly towards those who are unwell or dying. We keep all of those unwell or who are grieving in our prayers and give thanks for the lives of those who have brought so much to our community. Thank you to the Ministry Team, PCC Standing Committee, everyone involved with the life of the church in different ways from assisting with working groups to helping in other ways, and to all the congregalion and those in our community who have participated with supporting the church's mission and ministry and/or in maintaining our buildings during the past twelve months. Thank you for your support. It is all incredibly appreciated, and I look fOard to what the next twelve months will bring. With the help of God, we will continue to bring forward our loving. fatthfLAI and welcoming wsion acros5 Market Deeping and Iwond. With all best wishes and prayers.
