Doncaster Methodist Circuit ANNUAL REPORT (coNrINUED) P&ge 3 Yur Ended 31st August 2021 EVENTS & TRANSAC EVIEW OF ACTIV TtE IONS AND FINAN IAL REVIEW Review of A TIVITIES events & ions and Financi review In the Report of last yeAr12019-201 referen¢e was made to the impaa of the pandemic with the hope thai it was behind us. Regtttably. that was not the case.. in fact, places of worship sufferd from closure in lockdown an November 2020 and January to EasteT 2021 a total of four months within the yeaT. For Churches with more vulnerable ¢i)ngr¢gations. the closure foi worship extended beyond the four month5. Anif ev¢rywh¢K worshippers b¢cam¢ used to w¢aring face cvverings and vther restri¢tions. As in the previous year, Churches in the Circuit rn¢t the Challenge in a variety of effeetive ways. Communiedtion with their congregations was maintained by regular n¢w51etter5. contact by the intemet. telephone and post. Online services were bToad¢ast from Churches on the Circuit YouTub¢ Ghannel. Zoom and Skype became a factor of our lives. The CtKuit supported thes¢ efforts with an onlin¢ daily devotionaj conducted by members of the Ministy Team and Local Preachers. As Churche5 ￿pOnded to the pandemi¢ alld tria to maintain a Semblance of nomjality, so did the work of the Circuit - albeit on Zoorn. Sts. the pattem of Circuit Meetings, Focus Group MeetllJ85, Circuit Leadership Team Me¢iittgs, Local Prva¢hers' Meetings continued. The Circutt had to shelve some initiatives it had planned- the review of the Strategy fvr Growth and Development, planned for the year, was pustEK>ned to the current year. However, there is progress to report. Grants were proyidol to three Churches. A Baby Basics initiativ¢ was begun by Spr0tbTo￿gh and this became a Cir¢uit responsibility in the financial support of the Baby Basics Manager. It) a joitit initiaiive with other Dtstrtcts and Circuits, the Circuit approved support for the appoitjttnent of a Farsi presbyter. Perhaps most importantly. as it itnpa¢td ort all Churches. was the decision of the Circuit to have an 'ass¢ssment holiday. for the first quart¢r of 2020-2l to absolve Churches from paying the first quarterly assessment. The fun(ts for this were taken from the capital realized tn the sale of the buildings of Catr House Wesley and Rossington. The impact of the pandemic on the Circuit and its Churches is dt￿lc￿1t io judge 50 near in time. How¢ver. there are two items of data that Co￿ provide some evidence. The membership of the Circuit was 666 October 202] ¢ornpared with 747 in October 2020, mu¢h of th¢ reduction explained by the closuTe of Priory. Some of its fornieT members have since Te-located to other ChuTch¢s. Se¢ondly, a cash 5tockiake initiated by the District asked ÉtJdividua] Churches to compare their ftnanciaj situation on 31¥¢ Au8U$t 2021 wtth thai on 31° August 2020. Thi5 comparison shows 8 15Yo decre￿¢ in the Combined tncome of Circuit Churches. In April 2021, the Circuit Meeting agreed that Priory Place Chur¢h should cease to meet, a decision that was taken with great sadness. The District set up a Feasibility Group to look at maintaining a town centre mission with or without Priory &$ its base. The report of this 8roup was still pending at the end of this Comiexional year. The CiTCUit ¢oRtinues to bt bl¢ssed by the service provi(kd by our Pre5byt¢r¥ Supernumeraries. Local Preachers and Worship Leaders. The Te-statiot]ing in the Circuit of Rev. Tom Read (as S￿perintendentI and the Rev. Christine Sutherby preserved the unity of the Ministerial Team. Ja]]e Bingham and David B¢ardsall completed their training ald were appointed as ￿]lY ac¢redited Local Prea¢hers. Matt BeckinghaTn was appointed as a Worship Leader for the Connexion. It 15 also pleasing to r¢FK>rt that Joy Ventom completed h¢T training and was ordained as a Presbyter. Sadly we mourned the passing of Pam BaTr¢r,' and Jim Wtlson, remembering his faEthful service to the DistricL Circuit his local Church. Turning to a finan¢ial property summary, the Circuit Ye¢orded an ¢x¢ess of exp¢nditur¢ over income for the year of £141,659. The deficit w&s very largely due to thé Support the Cir¢uit ￿ve to Churches in the payment of the assessment contributions. The principai sources of fjjnds are assessment contributions from 0￿r Churches. amounting to £215252 (2020.. £317.456). grants fro]n the Sheffield District in support of Circuit mission projecis £1 1,51312020.. £14,000), and ￿tIta]S from th¢ letting of Manse5 £28,51212020= £26,630). The major items of Circuit expenditure includ¢ mintsteTial Costs £146,366 12020.. £141.7851. contributions made to Connexion Distriet £82,370 {2020.' £73,895). Pastors £82J70 {2020'. £ 51.4651, Manse Costs £34,141 (2020= £31,401}, and depr¢¢iation (non Cashl £21.09712020.. £21.0971. As at 31 August 2021 there were eighteen Chureh¢s (twenty Chureh properties) in the Cir¢ult. Church properties ar¢ inspected on a fivc yrars. cyrle by a qUa]if1￿ Architect. Ther¢ are six t1￿)$e9 owned by the CiJruiL and a further manse that is rent￿ from a third party. Three propenies are occupied by PresbyteT5. three aT¢ rented out to third panie5. Manse properties are inspeaed by a qualified Archttect every five years. We are indebted to the MAnse Siewards for their atteniion to these properties. **Page4** ## **Doncaster Methodist Circuit** ## **AN UAL REPORT (CONTINUED)** ## **Year Ended 31st August 2021** To conclude this section of the Report. As we enter a third year of pandemic, there remain further challenges to the Circuit and its Churches. However, the previous two years have brought forth initiatives that would not have been dreamed of in 2018. With God's grace, the Circuit will continue to meet these challenges and grasp the new possibilities. ## **RESERVES POLICY** The Reserves Policy relates to the general (unrestricted) funds which are freely available to be used for any or all of the purposes of the Circuit. Other funds are also included for the sake of clarity and openness and to show that the Circuit has a policy for the management of all of its money not simply those which are defined as reserves. ## **Aims** Our aim is twofold:- To secure and sustain the Circuit's viability and future. To give reassurance to the general public that the Circuit, which is a charity, intends to use all of the money coming into its care for the purposes of the charity. ## **Process** The financial policy of the Circuit is centred on the role of the Circuit Budget in implementing policy through The calculation of the Assessment; and The stewardship of the Circuit Model Trust Fund The Assessment, which is reviewed annually, provides essentially for:- The ministerial oversight of the churches in the circuit (numbering approximately 20); The support of ministers and lay workers. The maintenance of circuit Manses; - The District Assessment, by means of which the Circuit helps to support the work of the Sheffield Methodist District and the Methodist Connexional Team. In addition, the Circuit supports various aspects of lay work at its member churches either by direct grants from its Circuit Model Trust Fund or by procuring grants from other sources. ## **Reserves** The fund balances at 31 August 2021 are **General Fund** (unrestricted reserves) balance £175,325 (2020:£262,130) funds are held partly in a clearing bank current account and partly with the Central Finance Board of the Methodist Church.

By monitoring the level of reserves, ensuring control over financial systems and by examining the operational risk faced by the Charity, the Circuit believes that effective systems have been established to mitigate those risks. Insurance, including public liability, is effected through Methodist Insurance Ltd. Circuit office holders have attended courses on Risk Assessment conducted by Methodist Insurance Ltd and by Sheffield Methodist District, in the interests of training them in the assessment of risk pertaining to the Circuit, both directly in respect of its own activities and properties (Manses) which it owns, but also indirectly in respect of its member churches. Although the latter are separate Charities in their own right, the Circuit, through its Circuit Meeting and its various committees, seeks to ensure that its member churches follow good practice in their activities, particularly with reference to their financial systems and the condition of their properties Signed on behalf of the Circuit ## **AMendum** Dated:- 7[th ] July 2022 Doncaster Methodist Circuit INDEPENDENT EXAMINER>S REPORT TO THE CIRCUIT MEETING OF DONCASTER METHODIST CIRCUIT Page 6 I report on the accounts of th¢ Charity for the Year Ended 31A Au8USt 2021 whi¢h are set out on pa8¢s 7 tt> 12.
