P.C.C. VICE- CHAIR'S REPORT- Peter Terry In my report last year, I mentioned that the latest position was that the Bishop's Leadership team had agreed that the vacant Team Vicar p05t could be advertised nationwide and that hopefully would lead to the right candidate coming forward. I hesitated to say that, once again. September might be the best estimate of when a Team Vicar wlll be in place. Well, as we now know, a Team Vlcar has been appointed, albert in December not September and it was great to be able to welcome Re¢d Samuel Hameem and his family at the th licensin8 service here at St Marfs on 11 December 2022. Samuel is now settled in, taking services and baptisms here and building his wider connections with the church and wider communitv. In addition to the weekly service5, in 2022 there were fourteen baptisms at St Marfs, two weddings and six funerals all of which needed clergy to ofFiciate. We have received support in this regard from Revd's, Scott Richard50n. Derek and Leila Allen, Janet O'Neill and Rod Bevan as well as seNces conducted byjulie and Lee. Going forward of course Samuel Is now taking Occasional Seniices. We have set out in the Wardens reportthe many thanks that are due to the lay members of our congregation who have ensured that the church has continued to offer weekly services, including Sunday Schi)ol activities, as well as posting prayers and talks online, or physically distributingthem to house bound members. We are also grateful that the church has flowers and displays for weekly and special services and our thanks go to those who make that possible. It has also been encouraging to see good attendance at Make & Take once again and thanks are due to all those involved in those activities as well as the work Team St Marvs having been doin8 and in particular the monthly Soup & Sandwich lunches. We have even been able to have a couple of church parties, with more to come. Of course, all ofthis Work is supported by prayer. both individual and collective. including the continuing work of the Prayer Chain. The Rossendale Team is now able to support individual churches more effectively and we have seen that both in support for services, including more recently online services through thÉ Team You Tube channel, as well as team-based prayer meeting5 and courses. The reality though, is that we will always be reliant on our lay team for services and other outreach as we remain faithful and continue to serve God and our community in the best way we can. CHURCH WARDENS, REPORT- Jean Lang and Peter Terry Churth Fabri Not a lot of work has been undertaken during 2022. The inspection of the electrical system and the lightning conductor has been completed in line with our insurers requirements. Interestingly the lightening conductor would not have been effective as it had corroded under the metal shield that surrounds tt. This is all now resolved. The gate to the bell tower Came off and has been remounted. The fire alarm has been tested and serviced and a new maintenance contratt ha5 been put in place.

We still have the major works to the Towerto raise funds for and to undertake. Graveyard The frequency of grass cuttin8 by the Council in 2022 was not as often as when we employed our own groundsman, but we are 8rateful to Nick Lord who undertook additional grass cutting at the front of the church which kept that area more presentable. Clvlc Prlde also carried out some tidying up as part of their activities in the area. Workin8 Parties From time to time volunteers from the congregation undertake extra cleaning and work In the church and churchyard. We continue to be grateful forthelr help. Churth finances The accounts for the year ended 315t December 2022 show a surplus of £2,364 in the year fter the revaluation downwards of our endowment funds by ££4,235. This mean5 that the total funds of the church amounted to £77,627 at the balance sheet date. Parish Share payments of £28,OIXI were made to the Diocese and we would like to thank everyone fortheir continued giving which allowed us to maintain this payment at the same level as last year. £32.027 of the church funds relate to the capital value of legacy investments that provlde an annual income to the church. £17,494 is the remaining balance of the legacy given to the church by the estate of Geoffrey Bradshaw and the new legacy gift received last year. The other main element of church funds is the gift aid due on the giving in 2022 amountin8 to £10,283. Members of the congregation have continued to give towards the cost of our Family and Children's Worker. that cost being shared with St Paul's and Goodshaw churches. Whilst the overall funds position is satisfactory. the church continues to face expenditure on the fabric of the building in 2023 and beyond. The urgent repairs to the clock tower together with expenditure necessary following the Quinquennial inspection will more than absorb the available cash funds unless other sources of funding for these repairs can be identified. Add to this the funds needed to meet the annual running costs and the increased parish share and tt becomes clear that the level of giving from the congregation needs to be maintained rf we are to meet all our obligations in full. Worship The churchwardens would like to thank all those who helped in the day-to-day running of the church duringthe year. Thanks go to all those who have continued to provide input to our services, by writing and leading prayers. reading lessons, preparing and giving talks, providing music and the team on the technical desk. Also. thanks for the team involved with the Tiddlers group and for those ensuringthe Mothers Union meets regularly. Thanks also

to Julie for leadlng communlon services in the period prior to David's relapse and also for herwork as Focal Leader. We also thank Claire forthe work she has maintained with families, children and school5. We would also like to thank all those members of our fellowship who have maintained contact, in various ways, with those less able to get out and about. Saeguarding We confirm that the PCC has complied with the duty under Settion 5 of the Safeguarding and Clergy Discipline Measure 2016. SECREfARY'S REpoKf- Maureen Heys During 2022 the PCC met six times. underthe chairmanship of PeterTerry (Wice Chairl during the Team Ministry vacancy. All meetings were held in the foyer, although attendance by video link has been used by one ortwo PCC members when unable to attend in person. This hybrid method of meeting doe5 not affectthe PCC'S ability to discuss and make decisions on all matters affecting the church, both mundane and practical, pastoral and sometimes spiritual. The new Team Ministry commenced early in 2022 although it wasn't until December 2022 that the Rerfd Samuel Hameen was installed as third Team Vicar. based in Rawtenstall. The objectives of the Mission Action Plan agreed in 2018. although curtailed by the pandemic and interregnum, have continued to be considered throughout the PCC'S deliberations. The Mission Action Plan began to be revised towards the end of the year by the leadership team, however a copy of the previous Plan is available at the back of church for perusal and to then get prayerfully involved. The future of the church family at St Marfs is the responsibility of each and every one of us, as we engage fully wtth the new Team Ministry. Our Focal Leader, Leadership team and Team Vicar need our full support. At the Annual Parochial Church meeting in 2022 three members of the PCC were relected and one member co-opted for 12 months. During 2022 the members of the PCC, as required bythe Diocese. have continued to update their Safe-8uarding tralning. Since the last APCM St Marfs has returned to 'pre-pandemid style Sunday worship with talks provided mainly by church members, but with a regular monthly Holy Communion (now with dipped wafer} conducted by Re*/d Julie Barratt and other clergy members of the Rossendale Team. The church's online presence has continued. with talks and prayers published online and on social media. Most of the non-worship meetin85 resumed in- person and several social events occurred for Easter, Harvest and Christmas, with a regular free lunch. open to the community, started in the summer by Team St Marfs, along with their on80ing pastoral support.

Our Family and Community Worker. Claire Wood continued herwork acrossthe three churches of Goodshaw, Constable Lee and Rawtenstall, maintaining contact wtth the schools. and as pandemic restrictions eased, resuming her work within the schools. As pandemic restrictions were lifted the church building has been able to be used as a venue by outside organisation5 With concerts by Rotary, the Scouts, and the Hospice Light up a Life resuming. There has been no use bythe CAP Job club this year, which relocated to Bacup. Despite another challenging year, the church family at St Marfs has continued to worship and fellowship together, and a heartfeFt thanks must be given to those many people who have worked, and continue to work so hard. in all aspects of life at St Marfs, especially the Warden5. Peter and Jean during the interregnum, and to all who have contributed in any way, great or small to the spreading of the good news of the Gospel of Christ. The PCC look forward with anticipation to working with our new Team Vicar and the Rossendale Team, and all this will mean to the work of spreadingthe message of Christ Jesus by the church family at St Marfs.

SAFEGUARDING CO-ORDINATOR. REPORT- Vlcky Rhodes Our Parish of St Marfs Church Rawtenstall is still very much following and implementing the Manchester Diocese and the Church of England Child Protection & Vulnerable Adult Policie5. The Manchester Diocese online safe church training course is still a requirement for all new members who wish to work with our children, young adults and vulnerable adults. Here at St M3r¢s we renew DBS checks every 3 years and due to Data Protection laws all our completed documentation of applicants that have applied and has been processed through the Thirtyone:eight systems and are kept securely on church premises. In January 2017 Manchester Diocese revised their Safeguarding Pollcy for children & vulnerable adults and St Marfs parish is following this new revised policy. The revised policy and the new hand-book is available for viewing on the diocese website at http://www.manchester.anglican.orgJsafeguarding Following new practice guidance all PCC trustee members must take a DBS check where parishes undertake regulated activities with children or vulnerable adu￿5. At the moment there are 19 active members with DBS certificates which l am in the process of updating. Online Diocese Training is an important part of keeping church members up to date with the latest safeguarding knowledge and Training should be completed by each DBS certificate member. As St Marfs CPO I took part and completed an intense tw(Fday Leadership Safeguardin8 course on Zoom with the Diocese of Manchester in September 2022. FAMILY AND COMMUNITY WORKER- aaire Wood The last year has seen a welcome return to opportunities for face-to-face work with children and families in our community. tisms There have been lots of Baptisms tsking place at St Marfs Church and it has been wonderful to welcome so many new faces into these special services. Some Baptism families have attended children's events at the three churches which has opened conversations about church services, Sunday school and faith. Church Pa The Big Church Party made a welcome return this year, with help from Longholme Methodist Church and donations of refreshments and prizes from Rawtenstall Tesco. chools This year has seen a return to the children sharing in full school worship at both St Marfs and St Paul's Primary Schools: each week Bible stories and teachin85 are linked tothe

school's half-termly -values" such as: Yrusf. -Peace", -justice° and Thankfulness". The team of people who help to deliver the church-school worship is gradually growing and includes myself. Revd. David Burrow, Pastor Stephen Crook, Grahame Long and the Open the Book team. The children'5 enjoyment is visible during their worship time as is their learning and understanding of the Christian faith. St Marfs have been able to return to the church for their Harvest service and would have at Christmas except for the weather, families have also resumed attendance. Feedback from parents is how happy they are to be able to come back into church for these services, to see their children celebrate. There are dates in place for Easter. Both St Mar¢s and St Paul's schools had their SIAMS inspections this year and were awarded overall grades of "Good", with St Mary's School receiving "Good" in the°Impatt of Collective Worship" assessments. Bibles were provided by the Rawtenstall churches to the above schools, as well as Balladen, where the church link has been strengthening via weekly support to children through I:1 therapeutic sessions, a church vislt by their Infants to learn about Baptism, and a Year 6 outdoor bushcraft and archerytime, to celebrate the end of their school year/transition to secondary school. I worked closely with Alder Grange in the run up to these sessions, gaining permission from the schools to offer a year 10 student the chance to gain valuable work experience by helping me each day. Trainin I have been fortunate to have been able to attend the Blackburn Diocese Children's Ministry conference, gaining some new ideas to share with the churches and schools. In April .231 will join with youth and children's ministry workers at Manchester Diocese's "EQUIP" training. Finally, at Chrlstmas I was approached by someone who knew of my role and who had been offered some money to make up hampers for people in the community. Thls was wonderful link between several people that resulted in me being able to gift 10 households over the three churches, with a box full of goodies at Christmas time. I felt very blessed to be involved in delivering these to some very surprised people who were grateful forthe care shown to them. The strength we have as a community in Rossendale is really quite special. as is the love and compassion shown by so many in our parishes. DEANERY SYNOD-Terry Bird Durin8 2022 there have been three meetings, a mix of zoom and in person meetings. Throughout the period the Area Dean has been preparing a draft Deanery Mission Artion Plan and this was finally brought forward and discussed at the October meeting. This was to be submitted to the Diocese by the end of 2022. The mission goals of the Deanery MAP are Growth, Nurturin& Servin8 and Sustainability. The approved plan will be brought to PCCS during 2023.

At the February meeting there was a presentation "Stepping Stones for Growth. (Mike Starkey- Head of Church Growth). At the June meetingthere was 3 presentation "Eco Church" {Reverend Clive Hamilton). A Bury and Rossendale Support Group has been formed and should prove a useful link for St Marfs. Though it does not form part of the reportthe meeting may wish to know that the next Deanery Synod meetin8 will be at St Marfs on 24th April 2023. ACTIVITIES FOR WOMEN RENEW (and related activities)- Suzanne Moriarty There is a core team of about ten ladies on the RenewTeam, not all from St. Mary's but from a variety of churches in the local area. We aim to give a word in season to 'strengthen and refresh the weary ones, through the Name and Spirit of Jesus. Ilsaiah 50-4) A tithe of the offering goes to a different charity each tlme. We held two Renew meetings in 2022. The first was a full day, on a Saturday in May. which was based on the seasons, and in particular being rooted in God's love. Approximately 150 ladies attended. In September we held a meeting on a Monday evening with about 180 in attendance. The speaker was Sue Eldridge from Presence Ministries who spoke on 'Holding on to Hope,. ST MARY'S MOTHERS UNION- Jean Lan& Anne Johnstone. Maureen Heys The Mothers, Union's aim is to support Family Life. We meet on the third Monday of the month at 7:30pm in the foyer and durin8 2022 we had fifteen members plus one indoor member. As surrounding MU groups have not re-opened after Covid, we now have members from the congregation at St Paul's church, and some of the ladies from the late Goodshaw group have joined us for several of our meetings. We were pleased to be able to continue'face-to face, meetings in the foyer and have had various speakers ranging from Open the Book to the MU Deanery Leader, Tricia Stokes. besides group discussions. Several of our members had an excursion by X43 and a superb Summer Tea at The Ivy in Manchester, and we held two Christmas events, a meal atthe Red Hall, Walmsley. and we joined wrth our members from St Paul's fortheir Christmas Afternoon Tea at the beginning of December. This was followed up by our usual Carols and Mince Pies meeting in De￿Mber. which was again opened up to the general congregation.

As a group we look forward in 2023 (with thirteen members) to workingtowards the support of family life. in the church, the Rossendale Team Ministry and the local community. LADIES. FELLOWSHIP-Judith Barlass The Ladies Fellowship met fortnightly. to provide fellowship for the older, less actlve, ladies of the congregation and, until Covid, had been meeting with friends at Longholme. Unfortunately. we have not met this year as. apart from myself there is now only one member able to come to church independently. we no longer have a pianist and contact with the Longholme Ladies has not been forthcoming. Forthese reasons, and dueto a change in my circumstances whereby I can no longer commit to the Fellowship, it has been suspended. pending interest from new members and a new leader comingfopward, who I would be happyto share information with. ACTIVITIES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE SUNDAY SCHOOL- Suzanne Moriarty Sunday School has around twelve children on its register, many of whom are brought bv Grandparents, although on average eight children attend each week. which allows usto build good relationships with each child. We have more children in the group than last year, and the children are mostly underthe age of six. We try to keep Sunday School fresh and interesting by varying the session each week to include treasure hunts, obstacle course5, bible stories, games, craft and baking. We aim to provide fun, qualitytime forthe children whilst teachingthem aboutjesus and how He can impacttheir day to day live5 at school and home in a real and practical way. TIDDLERS- Jean Lang Tiddlers meet every Monday in temi time, in the church foyer, from Ipm until 2:30pm, at a cost of £1.50 per family The children learn to playtogether and share toys, and mum's can talk about the differences in each child. The children are aged from a few weeks old up to three or four years. when they either start school or nursery. When appropriate we have a short bible story and sing songs and choruses accompanied by Sara on the piano sometimes. Refreshments are various fresh fruits forthe children and cake/biscuits with tea or coffee for parent/carers.

Thanks to Linsey, aaire and Rosemary for their help. MAKE and TAKE-Jean Lang This is prlmarily a craft afternoon. started originally a few years ago by Julie Barratt, on the lines of Messy Church, but without the meal. It is held 4 or 5 times a year." Mothering Sunday, Easter. Harvest and Christmas, for children of nursery and junior school age land this year we tried one in the School Summer Holidays). We have suitable crafts for each occasion, we tell a story and at Christmas there is a son& light refreshments are a150 provided. We have had several non-church familie5 join us for these events. I would like to thank all the helpers (especially those happy to get glue and glitter etc. over them) without whom this outreach wouldn't be possible. FRIDAY CLUB- Jean Lang Friday Club runs/ran every other Friday in Term fime for over 7,5. Acttvities involved: studying a Bible story, a relevant craft, having toast/crumpets & hot chocolate, playing a game, praying and then home. This was the original format. We don't have many children in that age group now, and since Covid we have not met, however we have kept in touch with the children with cards. gifts and invitations to Church events. Perhap5 we should now reluctantlythink of closing or suspending until there is a demand to keep open. PASTORAL AcfiviTIES PRAYER CHAIN- Ann Laytham The Prayer Chain had an increased number of requests this year and one other person joined our home-based prayer 8roup. making it 26. We continued to have a high number of requestsfor people who were ill or bereaved or who had social needs. We prayed for our own church members, for church and community events and groups, and for the people attending them. Our prayers for them go on for as long as there is need. Eleven members of the Prayer Chain took part in the 24 Hours of Prayer initiative on 4th and 5th of June. We were greatly encouraged when a good number of our prayers were answered, and we received many messages of thanks. io

FLOWERS FOR THE HOLY TABLE - Susan Halliwell From January 2022 flowers forthe HolyTable have been provided by members of the congregation on a weekly basis and have been distributed to members of our fellowship suffering ill health. bereavement or for a special occasion. Thanks are extended to all of those involved in this ministry. AUTUMN CLUB- Susan Halliwell This yearwe were able to hold two teas, one in summer when Re¢d Janet O'Neil spoke about her life and ministry. and in December ourspeaker Anthony Black spoke about photography and showed a section of his photographs includin8 ones of the Rossendale Valley. Both afternoons closed with the singing of favourtte hymns or carols, thanks go to Ruth and Sara for playing and to everyone who helps to makethe events a success. TEAM sr MARY'S {Pastoral Support Group)- Maureen Heys The ream, has now been runningfor overtwo years and it has contlnued to evolve and 8row. We now have 25 members in the What&4pp group and one member not online. DurinB 2022 the work of the group has expanded; lifts have been glven when needed, contact has been maintained with members of the congregation unable to resume attendance. the talks and prayers are still distributed weekly to several non-attendees and support within the group itself has developed. Team members have also organised church events and provided assistance to outside users of the church. Team St Mary's, members organised delivery of over twenty 'encouragement' bags at Easter, and at Christmas around a dozen more were distributed to those unable to attend church. We a8ain distributed over 100 cards and invitations for events at Easter, Christmas, Harvest and the Jubilee. Flowers were distributed on Motherin8 Sunday and for Fatherfs Day the men in the congregation received the gift of a pen inscribed with an inspiring verse. All of these initiatives have been with the aim of maintaining contact with people who have a connection to the church, and to provide encouragement and fellowship when gifts are delivered or received. The Team started to resume social events with a Soup and Sandwich lunch being held for the congregation after the Palm Sunday service, followed by a partyforthe Queen's Jubilee, when over 100 people attended. Team members were instrumental in organising both the summer and Christmas Autumn Club events and we helped provide tea and coffee at the Civic Pride Bank Holiday Tea Party event, the Hospice Light Up A Life event, several Chrlstmas concerts and Re¢d Samuel's licencing. At Hap4est a good number of the congregation enjoyed a Pie and Peas Supper held after a guided Walk and the Make and Take event. li

Since the school summer holidays the Team has been providing a monthly Soup and Sandwich lunch. open to anyone, and this is to be continued into 2023. A relatively small team provide this and are encouraged by a rise in customer numbersto just under ￿enty on a regular basis. We see a mix of congregation members and people from the local community, and we are now seein8'regulars' each month. We aim to provide a warm space and companyto those who come, but have seen increased fellowship amongst the Team too, as we work and eat together. Moving into 2023 we contlnue to seek God's will for the Team. both with the pastoral support, and also on the social side. We lookfonvard to workingwith the church leadership, especlally our new Team Wicar and maybe even the wider Rossendale Team in this aim. A massive thank you to all the Yeam, who have helped make everything happen, both those fully active, and also those who support us in 'the background,. especially with prayer and encouragement. SMALL (House) GROUPS TUESDAY AFTERNOON - Jean Lang We meet in the foyer every otherweek on a Tuesday, from Ipm until 2pm, with around 7 to 8 people present. This year we have studied books of Hebrews and Esther, also the Lord's Prayer byj. John.

During Lent'23. when we will meet weekly. we wlll using a Pilgrim Course book, Church and Kingdom. WEDNESDAY GROUP-Nigel Bond Our house group was established over six years ago, overthe past year we have met once a month, on a Wednesday at 1.30pm.
