Annual Report for 2021/22

The Charity Trustees present their Annual Report and financial statements for 2021/22.

Charitable Object

The Church means members of the charitable unincorporated association governed by this constitution and known as Cannon Street Memorial Baptist Church (or such other name as shall subsequently be adopted by decision of the Church Members’ Meeting and with the consent of the Charity Commission).

Purpose

The principal purpose of the Church is the advancement of the Christian faith according to the principles of the Baptist denomination. The Church may also advance education and carry out other charitable purposes in the United Kingdom and/or other parts of the world.

We are a warm, caring and friendly fellowship. Worship styles are a mixture of traditional and modern. We are a black majority inner-city Church, a lively charismatic-evangelical fellowship striving to ‘empower God’s people’. As bible believing Christians, we minister in a multi-racial, multi-faith community. We have a thriving work amongst over 80 young people. We have a luncheon club that serves the community. People enjoy our lively worship, bible based preaching and our friendly welcome.

Mission Statement :-

“Empowering God’s People “:- We seek to empower people in the following ways.

Membership and Church Attendance:-

Attendance at our morning worship as picked up since the pandemic and a vaccine became available. Our services are still on zoom or u tube. Our membership record stands at 250 members. We have not resumed evening services at the moment.

There are 7 Deacons with a specific area of responsibility at the moment. Cell Group, Prayer, Youth, Administration, Olive Branch Outreach, Sunday school, and Pastoral Care,

Staff:-

supported by our musicians and led by our choir and Praise and Worship Team.

Sunday school:-

Our Sunday school as resumed two Sundays per month post pandemic.

Evangelism:-

We have, for the last 15 years, taken part in a ‘Walk of Witness’ which takes place on Good Friday, walking in a procession, together with other Churches in the Community, through the heart of Handsworth witnessing to everyone we encounter, neighbours or people just passing through the area, shopping or going about their general business.

We also promote other evangelistic events such as Open-Air Witness. The word of God is usually preached together with singing, testifying and distributing leaflets and also sharing our faith with the Community and praying for anyone who may request prayers. This takes place once a month and is usually very well attended not just by our church but other churches within the community.

Prayer Meetings

Our Wednesday morning prayer meeting as resumed in person post pandemic. We have also continued our on line prayer meeting.

Fresh Fire Service

This is a late night prayer meeting, which is held once per month on the second Friday of the month from the 10pm - 1am. We have continued to do this by zoom.

4

Funerals and Baby Dedication

We also host regular dedication and funeral services throughout the year which has turned out to be a very good opportunity for evangelism though funerals are sad occasions. For example, we were advised that a number of converts had their first encounter with God through their attendance at the church, when attending a funeral.

Social Caring

We have a Luncheon Club, which did run from Tuesday to Thursday pre Covid. This as just resumed on Tuesday only at the moment. We also deliver meals to people in their homes and even some meals to the local hospital as and when required or requested.

Premises

We have various rooms which consists of, the main Church Hall, (The Sanctuary), School Room, Olive Branch, Kitchen, and an extension to the Olive Branch Community Centre, Upper floor with a capacity for about 80 people. Our premises are used for a variety of functions i.e. Baptism, private parties, concerts, funeral receptions and events for the voluntary and nonvoluntary sector.

Christmas Dinner for the Homeless

The Church has provided and continues to provide a full Christmas dinner to the homeless, our seniors and those members of the community who would otherwise be on their own over Christmas. This is provided free of charge. We also provide hampers for those in need. A Christmas atmosphere is provided. This is very much appreciated, well attended and enjoyed immensely by those who attend. This service is provided entirely by volunteers from within the Church.

Ecumenical Activities:-

6

Handsworth & District Christian Outreach is a group of approximately 12 Local Churches who meet to evangelise together e.g.:- Good Friday Walk of Witness, Open Air ministry, and an annual United Service of Local Churches etc.

Hands Outstretched is a small group from approximately three Churches who meet together to prepare for schools outreach by going into Schools to teach the gospel in a fun way and sometime take assembly. We are looking to extend this ministry to enable us to go into more schools to spread the gospel.

Cannon Street is part of an Organisation known as the Council of Black Majority Churches which provides various educational and social needs for the Community.

House Groups

This would normally take place in the homes of members once every fortnight; but as been suspend since Covid we would normaaly take part in Bible studies and fellowship together. Our mid-week Bible study continues to be on line which is conducted every Thursday evening.

Structure, governance and management

The appointment of Charity Trustees shall be undertaken by processes that are public, clear and open so that all Church Members are enabled to consider prayerfully who should be appointed as Charity Trustees. The process shall ensure that notice is given of any forthcoming election so that Church Members may freely nominate prospective Charity Trustees. These names shall be submitted (after they have indicated a willingness to be appointed) for decision to the Church Members with the intention of ensuring that those appointed have a sufficient level of support from them.

7

Nominations for the role of Charity Trustees other than a Minister shall be made to the Church Secretary (or equivalent) not later than three Sundays (or other regular weekly meeting time when the Church gathers together) before the Ordinary Church Members’ Meeting at which the election is to be held. Nominations must be submitted in writing with the supporting signature of two other Church Members and the consent of the candidate. No person may nominate more candidates than there are places vacant. Requests for nominations shall be made at all services on the two Sundays (or other regular weekly meeting time when the Church gathers together) immediately before that Sunday [alternative or day] when nominations must cease.

In cases of unavoidable absence Church Members may exercise a postal vote where this is permitted under clause 13.4 provided that votes are returned before the commencement of the Church Members’ Meeting at which the election is to be held.

If there are more candidates than vacancies and if after the ballot, some vacancies remain unfilled because insufficient candidates have received votes from at least 50% of those members voting then, if that Church Members’ Meeting agrees, the person chairing the Church Members’ Meeting shall delete from the names of those who have not been elected those with the lowest number of votes so as to leave as many names as there now are vacancies (he or she may use his or her casting vote where there is a tie). These names shall be submitted to that or another Church Members’ Meeting for balloting on the remaining places.

The Charity Trustees shall be responsible for the governance of the Church and the fulfilment of the Purpose through its Activities acting according to the will of God as discerned by the Church Members’ Meeting and subject to any specific or general directions of the Church Members’ Meeting in relation to the matters set out in clause 9.2 of the Church Constitution and Rules.

Regularity of - The Charity Trustees convene meetings of the whole group ….. See 17.2 of the constitution.

8

For matters requiring a decision the Charity Trustees shall, so far as possible, seek consensus on all matters considered at their meetings but where this is not possible a vote shall be taken and the outcome recorded as the resolution of the Charity Trustees.

The Charity Trustees shall determine when and how frequently they shall meet provided that they shall convene meetings of the whole group not less than once every two months.

Minutes shall be prepared of the proceedings at the meetings of the Charity Trustees including any appointments, the names of those present, the decisions taken, and where appropriate the reasons for the decisions and the Charity Trustees shall decide from time to time whether all or part of these minutes shall be treated as confidential.

Application of Income and Capital

The Charity Trustees must use the income and may use the capital where trusts permit it to be spent to promote the Purpose provided that the Charity Trustees may apply an appropriate reserves policy in accordance with the general law.

Achievements and Performance

As things being to gradually return to normal at the end of another exciting and yet busy year, we must give thanks to God for the many blessings he has bestowed on us.

In preparation for the Good Friday Walk of Witness we continue to have various zoom meetings. Which includes prayer meetings, a fund raising concert and joint services at the different local Churches taking part.

We also had a number of candidates who went through the waters of baptism during Easter and November.

9

The Food bank which was set up in conjunction with other local churches in the area continues to flourish. Food is donated by supermarkets and church members so it’s kept well stocked. The food bank is maned by volunteers from the churches and serves those in need within the community. This is proving to be a much needed service in the community.

We again had an afternoon tea event by way of fundraising for our Convention in July. This was very well attended and a huge success. Various types of teas, cakes and sandwiches and other delicacies were served and enjoyed by those who attended. This was one of the best afternoon tea event to date, we were truly blessed and the funds raised went towards funding for the convention.

Anniversary

At our Church Anniversary in October, we had guest speaker as we normally do, who also preached at our morning service.

Volunteers

We would like to thank all the volunteers who continue to work tirelessly behind the scenes, from week to week. In particular:

Church Cleaners Communion preparers & Servers Floral Contributors/arrangers Gardener

Mini-Bus drivers Olive Branch Luncheon Club Workers

PA & Audio Visual Operators Property Steward/Caretaker Sunday Offering Counters Painters, handymen/women

Financial Review

Independent Examiner’s Report

I report on the accounts of the charity for the period year ending 31st March 2022 which are set out on page 13 onwards.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the charities Acts

11

2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

Basis of independent examiners statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with general directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner’s statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention

(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:

Future Plans

The main aim remains the same of proclaiming the Christian gospel by works of practical Christianity. The principal purpose of Cannon St Memorial Baptist Church for the next 12 months will be the advancement of the Christian faith according to the Baptist denomination, and carry out other charitable purposes.

13

Our mission maintains the same as previous years and that is to provide appropriate facilities for use by the community of Handsworth and Birmingham.

To operate and facilitate projects that will improve and bring about community engagement, promote social responsibility, civil renewal, and a more cohesive neighbourhood.

This will be achieved by a number of services, events and activities which include a luncheon club which operates three days per week, family fun day, BB & GB, concert’s and various other meetings that cover the full age range of the local community.

The Church is an employer participating in a pension scheme known as the Baptist Pe Scheme ("the Scheme")

The scheme is a separate legal entity which is administered by the Pension Trustee (Baptist Pension Trust Limited.

The Ministers and some members of the church staff are eligible to join the Scheme, From January 2012, pension provision is being made through the Defined Contribution Plan within the Scheme. In general, members pay 8% of their Pensionable Income and employers pay 6% of members' Pensionable Income into individual pension accounts, are operated and managed on behalf of the Pension Trustee by Legal and General Life Assurance Society Limited. In addition, the employer pays a further 4% of Pensionab Income (or3% if the employer is in the segregated DC section) to cover Death in Service Benefits, administration costs, and an associated insurance policy which provides income protection for Scheme Members in the event that they a unable to work due to long-term incapacity. This income protection policy has been in by the Baptist Union of Great Britain with Aviva.. Members of the Basic Section pay reduced contributions of 5% of Pensionable Income, and their employers also pay a to 5.00%

The scheme is considered to be a multi-employer scheme as described in section 2B FRS 102. This is because it is not possible to attribute the Scheme's assets and liabilit to specific employers and means that the scheme is accounted for as if the scheme w defined contribution scheme.

17 Pensions

The Church is an employer participating in a pension scheme known as the Baptist Pe Scheme ("the Scheme")

The scheme is a separate legal entity which is administered by the Pension Trustee (Baptist Pension Trust Limited.

The Ministers and some members of the church staff are eligible to join the Scheme, From January 2012, pension provision is being made through the Defined Contribution Plan within the Scheme. In general, members pay 8% of their Pensionable Income and employers pay 6% of members' Pensionable Income into individual pension accounts, are operated and managed on behalf of the Pension Trustee by Legal and General Life Assurance Society Limited. In addition, the employer pays a further 4% of Pensionab Income (or3% if the employer is in the segregated DC section) to cover Death in Service Benefits, administration costs, and an associated insurance policy which provides income protection for Scheme Members in the event that they a unable to work due to long-term incapacity. This income protection policy has been in by the Baptist Union of Great Britain with Aviva.. Members of the Basic Section pay reduced contributions of 5% of Pensionable Income, and their employers also pay a to 5.00%

The scheme is considered to be a multi-employer scheme as described in section 2B FRS 102. This is because it is not possible to attribute the Scheme's assets and liabilit to specific employers and means that the scheme is accounted for as if the scheme w defined contribution scheme.

The Minister [and some members of the church staff] is/are eligible to join the Schem

Mortality is assumed in accordance with 80% of the S3NA standard mortality table. Fu improvements projected from 2013 in line with the “CMI 2019” projection with a long-

of improvement of 1.75% p.a. For males and 1.5% p.a. For females with the core smoothing parameter and with additional initial mortality improvement factor A=0.5%
