			Nuthall Methodist Church is unincorporated and is governed
			by the Methodist Church Act 1976,the Deed	of Union and the
			Model Trust Deeds ofthe Methodist Church.

Structure			Commissioners on 26~ April 2010. Trustees are voted on at the Annual General	Meeting each
			year.
			The main body appointed to carry forward the work ofthe
			Church between Church Council meetings is	the Stewards
			Team
			Reports are given to and, where appropriate,	discussed in the
			Church Council.

Constitution			and the guidelines ofthe Constitutional Practice and Discipline ofthe Methodist Church, the Deed of Union and the
			Model Trusts.
			Our calling is to respond to the gospel of God's love in Christ
			and to live out our discipleship in worship and	mission, doing
			this through Evangelism, Worship, Service, Learning and
			Caring.
			We have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity
			Commission on public benefit,
Aims of	the Church		We support other charities in the UK and overseas financially
			and with prayer, working for the benefit of all.
			We provide public religious worship open to all.
			We provide a range ofservices to suit the needs ofour local
			and wider community, a system of pastoral care and support
			and opportunities for personal interaction and	growth for
			individuals and rou s.

		The church has been able to resume its regular activities and
		meetings with a renewed sense of purpose and vigour. Restrictions
		on worship have been gradually reduced until everyone has felt safe
		and confident to come to services. Detailed risk assessments have
		been continuously adapted to suit changes in official advice, the
		need to keep people as safe as possible and the desire to move
		forward in our services and other activities. Many people have
		worked tirelessly in many different areas to achieve this —pianists,
		worship leaders, readers, communion stewards, those who provide
		flowers and serve refreshments, youth workers, bible study leaders,
		pastoral leaders, eco church leaders, the vision group, the
		communications team and many more.
		It has been good tosee our church full again for special services
		including at Easter, the Sunday School Praise service and recent
		baptisms. We have also hosted several Circuit services and a
		District service when we could share in fellowship with those from
		other churches. We have linked with other local churches and
		people at the Remembrance service and Easter Sunrise Service
		and Breakfast. It has also been good to see lots ofthe other groups
Summary	of main	and activities within church able to be active again, and new
achievements during the year 2021-		initiatives beginning.
2022		During this year at our church council meetings we have made some
		important decisions. In November we discussed the outcome ofthe
		"God in Love Unites Us" report being accepted by the Methodist
		Conference, and voted for our church to be available for same-sex
		marriages. In February we made the decision that it was no longer
		viable to run a Nuthall Methodist Coach. During the year we have
		also been discussing our financial position because we continue to
		be in a situation where our regular giving does not cover all our
		costs and this is something we need to continue to work on and pray
		about. We also voted to welcome the members ofAspley and
		Awsworth Methodist Churches after their memberships became too
		small for them to continue as individual churches, and we look
		forward to the developments this will bring.
		We continued our EcoChurch journey and it has been great to use
		that formal framework to bring together different ways ofcaring for
		creation as an important part ofour worship and service at Nuthall.	It
		has also been wonderful to see the moving forward ofthe Vision
		process to focus and direct our work to spread God's love in our
		community, and this should lead to an exciting time ahead.
