PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST PAUL'S CHtCHESTER TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 The members have pleasure in preseoting their report and the unaudited financial statrments of the charity for the year ended 31 Decetllber 2023. Our aims and puryoses as a charity St Paul's PCC became a registered clwity on 26 January 2010. The cl]arity'S nanle is The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesi&stical Parish of St Pauls, Chichester and the charity number is 1133785. When planning our activities for the year, the incumbent and the Parochial Church Council have considered the Charity Conmiission's guidance on public benefit anQ in particular. tbe specific guidance on 'charities for the advancement of religioll,. The Council has complied with tbe duty under section 5 of the Safeguarding and Clergy Discipline Measure 2016, fillly recognising its duty to have due regard to House of Bishops, guidance on safeguarding children and ￿th]erabLe adults. Our Goals After a consultation with the congregation in 2017, the PCC adopted five goals towards which we continue to work. They are as follows: l. A true parish church - rooted in the life of the city, responsive to local needs. and open to all. 2. A place of imaginative and inspirillg WOTship, with the Eucharist at our heart. 3. A community of faith, committed to deepening our own discipleship and nurtUTiDg the faith of others, not least children and young people. 4. A chuTch that protnotes a culture of Inclusio￿ safeguarding, stewardsbip and good governance. 5. A supportive and caring Congregatio￿ with strong mission links and a commitment to environmentsl sustainability. These were reviewed by the PCC in October 2021 but were not significantly changed. How we are seeking to be a true parish church - rooted in the life of the city, responsive to local needs, and open to all. St Paul's provides space for all Ma[￿er of groups to mee( both those that have the roots in the cburch and others from the wider comn]unity. Church-run groups included the Mothei's Union, the Boys. (and Girls,) Brigade, the F3A group (Fellowsbip of the Third Age), a Ladies, Group alld a number of groups and activities for children that are described below.

Tbe parish centre was widely used in the year. The centre was used by Confide, a counselling service forpeople on low incomes. It gave space formeetings and language lessons forrefugees and asylum seekers who are linked to Sanctuary in Chicbestei. There were weekly meetings of Say Aphasia that offers support to stroke patients and the Chi¢hester Festival Theatre's Friday Company for youllg adutts over the age of 25 witb leaniing difficulties. Think Out. an organisation that enables people over 18 wbo have learning difficulties to meet and enjoy different activities, also met at St Paul's. The young people served coffee after the loam Eucbarist on Thursdays and provided conununity lunches every Wednesday during temi- time. A local company generously donated materials for the building of two raised beds in which the young people can grow vegetables for their own use and as ingredients for the lunche8. Jn addition, tbe centre was regularly used by fifteen voEuntary organisations and there were numerous occasional meetings. The church was used by a rock choir. rehearsals of the Chichester Singers. the NHS Blood Transfusion servTce for blood donor sessions and ABRSM music exatns. Seven Festival of Cbichester events were held at St Paul's. Otber concerts also took place during the year. The church was used by two state schools, as well as St Joseph's, a Cburch of England voluntary aided school within the paTisl4 for productions and special serYice5 at Easter. Harvest and Christmas and for Year 6 leave[5. The Coronation was marked at St Paul's by a tea party on Sunday 7 May that was attended by over one hundred and fify people. On the following Monday. some members of the congregation took part in lÈtter picking and a tree survey in the P￿ISh as part of the King's call for voluntary action. St Michael's Hall continued to offer the only significant meeting place in the large residential area in the north of the city. It was in almost constant use by keep fit classes, art groups. Brownies and Rainbows, residents. groups and for rehearsals of the Chichester City Brass Band. It also provided the venu¢ for monthly tea parties on Sundays for members of the congregation and beyond. How St Paul's is a place of imaginative and inspiring worship? With the Eucharist at our heart. The main service, at which the Eucharist is celebrated. took place at 10am on Sundays. There was also a Eucllarist on Thursday mornings. During the interregnum, Morning Prayer w&$ said on Tuesdays and Thursdays and there were occasional services such as Choral Evensong, a pet service, Community Carols (attended by Rusty the donkey) and a Crib and Christingle service. A substantial newsletter The Grapevine is published each month (apart from August) that gives detsils of services and events alld contains articles for reflection. During the year there were twenty-one baptisms, two readings of balms, twelve funerals, and two internients of ashes.

How St Paul's aspires to be a community of faith, Cotnmitted to deepening our own discipleship and nurturing the faith of others, not least children young people. St Paul's continued to offer many opportunities for deepening discipleship and nurturing the faith of others. St Paul's followed the diocesan Lent course on the Old Testament. During the year Bible study sessions followed the Thursday Eucharists. There was a pilgrimage to Walsingham foi adults in September. There were several organisations for youllger members of the church. The average attendance at Sunday School was thirty five. Twenty five children attended Ignite for Years 3 to 6 and the Boys, (and Girls,) Brigade had twelve members. YOYO, for older children, had four members. Messy Church attracted foty children and theiT carers. In March there was a children's pilgrimage to Walsingharn. In June, six adults and six children were confirnied. A grant from the Diocesall Mission Fund continued to make possible the continued employment of a schools. worker to work n￿InlY in St Joseph's Academy. St Paul's provided Bibles for the Year 6 leavers. How Ive are working toiyards being a churcb that promotes a culture of inclusion, safeguarding? Stewardship and good goi'ernance. St Paul's is an Inclusive church and the congregation reflects the diversity within the parish. It is attended by people of all ages and they are encouraged to play an active part in services and a wide range of volunteer roles. There is no distinction between men and women in the offices that can be held. The number recorded on the electoral roll at the Annual PaTochial Church Meeting on I l May 2023 was 249, an inCre￿e of 13 froTn 2022. Three natnes were added during the year after approval from the PCC. The PCC met six tirnes in 2023. The average attendance was 8001,. The PCC received regular reports on finance and safeguarding and took steps to ensure that the safeguarding policies Telatkng to children and to vulnerable adults were up to date and prominently displayed. The incumbent, Rev'd Canon Simon Hollan(I left at E&ster 2023 to become the illterim Dean at the Chichester cathedral. Subsequently a significant part of the PCC'S business was concerlled with the processes required to appoint a new rector. The June meeting was attended by the Archdeacon of Chichester. the Vcn. Rev'd Luke Irvine Capel, who talked in detail about the steps that would have to be taken. He touched on tbe need for the preparation of parish profiles, both for Si Paul's and aIso for St Peter's, WesthampnetL aTrangements for advertising and the likely timetable. A Section I I n]eeting was held on 3 July at which the parisb profiles were agreed and lay representatives from St Paul's and St Peter's were appointed to serve on the illterviewing panel. David Foster and Jeannie Taylor were appointed as the representatives from St Paul's. Other ￿￿tterS discussed by the PCC during the year included car parking at St Michael's the use of incense, the possibility of purchasing some chairs with arms for the church, the celebrations to mark the Coronation, the appointment of a new kitchen n￿￿ger, the reinvigoration of the pastoral care scheme. a memorial to commemorate people whose ashes bad been interred in the church garden. the creation of a church conlact list, the re-

introduction of servers. No-mow May, and a proposal to install a cross on the west wall of the church. How we try to be a Supportive and caring congregation, stroDg mission links and a commitment to environmental sustainability. St Paul's has long-standing commitment to give five per cent of income to mission agencies and charities. In 2023 this amount was £5400. Donations of £540 were ll￿de to the main missioii par￿er$ (the Church Mission Society, C]]ristian Ai(L BEATS, Chichester Diocese West Africa Link and the United Society for Partners iu the Gospel). Additionally, metnbers of the congregation were invited to nominate C}￿ltieS to receive money. This apportionment was niade as lollows. Payments of £450 were made to Médecins Sans Frontières that provides en]ergency medicine in seventy countries worldwide, Sajnaritans tbat provides emotional support to people in distress. Parenting Mental Health that supports parents of children with melltsl health issues, HEART. a Eocal charity, that provides hot meals to people who are homeless OT in llee￿ My Sister's House that helps women at risk of domestic abuse and tbe Chichester Foodbank. The PCC agreed that funding for these charities would be limited to a three-year period overall in order to allow other charities to be nominated. Suppletnentary funds for mission were raised during the year from the parish barbecue in July and a barn dance ill October. A monthly donation of food and toiletries to Stonepillow, a local hotnelesslless charity, contiT)ued. In additioJL solne members of the congregation sang carols outside the Festival Theatre in late December to rdtse money for Stonepillow. At Christtnas, members of the congregation bought toys to be given to children who had contact with the Diocesan FatDily Social Work projects. A collection was made in church in Chrlstian Aid Week. St Paul's is a Fair-Trade church and we are committed to using fair trade products wherever possible.
