Diocese of Leicester, Guthlaxton Deanery Parochial Church Council of ST ANDREW’S CHURCH, COUNTESTHORPE Registered Charity No 1135711

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT for the year 2022

OUR YEAR

We had a good deal to be thankful for in 2022. In August our Rector marked the first anniversary of his arrival in Countesthorpe. Following the easing of Covid 19 restrictions many of our activities resumed. In addition our members worked hard to raise funds to replace the money spent in 2021 on the wall repair and enjoyed the events. We joined the rest of the village in commemorating both the Platinum Jubilee and the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

Sadly a number of our members died during the year and a few families left the church. But the worshipping community has gained some new members, including some Ukrainian friends.

The Church

St Andrew’s Church is a Grade II Listed building. The church was rebuilt in 1907, but its 13[th] century tower was retained and now holds eight bells. In more recent years the church has had a new roof, new electrical wiring and sound and projection equipment. The pews have been replaced with chairs and the old organ has been replaced with an electronic one. The main entrance now has glass inner doors and new steps and railings enhance it even more. The floor was refurbished in 2019.

The church is situated on Main Street, Countesthorpe, LEICESTER LE8 5QX, and is part of the Four Saints Benefice, with Foston, Peatling Magna and Willoughby Waterleys.

There is a church hall called The Cornerstone. The church’s premises at 1 Main Street, next to the church, include a shop and a flat, both let to tenants, and The Bridge building, which has toilets, the church office, the Rainbow Shop and a meeting room. The Rainbow Shop is run by volunteers from St Andrew's, other local churches and the community and it raises funds for the interdenominational charity Christian Aid. Visitors can be sure of a cup of tea and a chat there. The Bridge meeting room is used by a number of organisations as well as the church itself.

The Church’s Mission

The Parochial Church Council (PCC) co-operates with the Minister in promoting in the Parish the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelical, social and ecumenical.

Mission Statement

We wish to be

a transformed people who love God and each other,

a people set on fire by the Gospel of Jesus Christ,

a community that wants to share His Story with everyone we can,

seed-throwers and fire-starters, hope-peddlers and grace-givers, risk-takers and dreamers, young and old.

We aim

to seek the lost, empower the poor, strengthen the weak, embrace the outcast.

We want

to serve together, play together, worship together, pray together, laugh together, cry together, learn together and live life together,

to grow as a church in numbers and in loving service

and to see our village changed by the love God has given to us to share.

The funding needed comes mainly from the donations of individuals and a few fundraising initiatives during the year. Much of the upkeep of the Cornerstone and No 1 Main Street is funded by rent and fees for lettings. A Parish Contribution is paid to the Diocese of Leicester for the salaries of the stipendiary clergy and central services.

Structure of the PCC

The PCC is a corporate body established and operating under the Church Representation Rules of the Church of England and is Registered Charity No 1135711.

Elected Members Christine Baxter the late James Mackley Alison Dale (Treasurer) Jacqui McAughey Gill Gillespie Eva Morris (PCC Secretary) Christopher Gradden Deborah Perkins Anne Jelves (Churchwarden and Vice Chair) Edward Thomas Geoffrey Kirk (until November 2022)

Membership

There were 100 people on the church Electoral Roll on 31 December 2022. The average Sunday attendance was 63 adults and 7 children in 2022. A few other people attend Messy Church and the young people's group Breathe.

Ministry

The Rector of the Four Saints Benefice is the Revd Richard Reakes. Two retired priests with Permission-to-Officiate (the Revd Rod Allard and the Revd Mick Gillespie) lead many of our services. The benefice has four Reader Ministers (June Ainge, who is also Pioneer Minister for Messy Church, Helen Stokes, Michael Oates and Lindsey Jelves) and an Associate Minister/Pastoral Assistant (Gail Mackley). We also have a trainee Associate Minister (Jacqui McAughey).

Worship and Groups

Church members are served by a wealth of services of worship and other activities. On Sundays there is a ‘traditional’ Holy Communion service at 9.00am, using Common Worship. The 11.00am service is more informal and varied. Mid-week Holy Communion is at 9.30am on Thursdays. 'Messy Church' is held on the third Saturday of each month.

The young people have their own mid-week group, Breathe. Home Communion is provided for those who cannot get to church. Prayer ministry is available to those who request it. The church has midweek groups for Bible study and prayer. Currently there is no Sunday School.

St Andrew’s has a long-established Mothers’ Union branch, which has a full programme of monthly meetings, including the Rally in October hosted by St Andrew’s. The church takes part in the annual ecumenical World Day of Prayer service in early March. There is a Men’s Group called MAFIA (Men And Faith In Action). There is a regular Craft Corner. Singers and musicians work faithfully and

competently to lead the Sunday worship and other events. The tower team ring the bells before the Sunday morning service and for weddings. New members are welcomed to our groups.

Outreach to the Community

Funerals and weddings take place in St Andrew’s Church. The 11.00am service sometimes includes a baptism. On these occasions St Andrew’s endeavours to offer a welcome and ongoing pastoral care.

A good relationship is maintained with the local schools and we have links with the Scout and Guide organisations.

St Andrew’s hosts the Remembrance Service for the whole village. In 2022 the whole service was held in the churchyard, where the village War Memorial is situated.

A Service of Light was held on Advent Sunday 2022. This is a service when people are enabled to remember their loved ones. A carol service was held in December and on Christmas Eve there was a Christingle service and a Midnight Communion.

The Cornerstone and The Bridge are used regularly by church and outside groups. There are ‘Friendship Teas’ on a Monday afternoon.

The Bridge garden is a quiet space accessible to the community, with a dedicated team to maintain it.

As a founder member of the Countesthorpe Foodbank the church continues to support it. Similarly we support the Community Fund for which money is raised by the collection of newspapers. Towards the end of the year, the church hosted 'Warm Space' sessions in The Bridge, in conjunction with the Parish Council, for people struggling with fuel bills.

Safeguarding and Other Policies

The church has Safeguarding Policies for both children and vulnerable adults. The PCC has adopted the House of Bishops' Guidance. It has a Statement on Domestic Abuse. It also has a Health and Safety Policy, an Equality and Diversity Policy and a Data Protection Policy.

Communication

St Andrew's has an informative benefice website (www.standrewscountesthorpe.co.uk). There is a St Andrew's Church & The Bridge Facebook page and a St Andrew's Church Facebook group. The church also contributes a section in the local village newspaper, with the Baptist and Methodist churches - the newspaper is delivered free to every home and is available online. There is a weekly news sheet for church members called What’s On Where (WOW) , which is also on the benefice website .

Financial Review

We started the year with very little in the bank, following the expense incurred of around £20,000 on repairing the Church wall at the end of 2021. During 2022 we have benefited financially from many fundraising events and activities, as well as some very generous donations. This has resulted in a surplus on the General Fund of £20,882, so our reserves are largely restored. We are very thankful to everyone who has organised and supported fundraising, and all who have given generously to the Church.

Net current assets (for all funds) totalled £20,961 at the end of the year, compared with only £1,338 at the end of 2021. The coming year’s budget contains some uncertainties, especially in relation to utility bills, so it is good to be starting the year on a firmer footing. It is likely to be another challenging year financially, so we will need to continue with the fundraising efforts.

We paid off £8,000 of capital on the Diocesan loan during 2022, less than our annual target, bringing the balance owed down to £86,000. We hope to increase this repayment level in 2023 and stay on track to repay the loan by the end of 2029.

Reserves Policy. We normally aim to keep our reserves at around £20,000, although the balance has been less than this in recent years. At present we do not have a sufficient surplus to put into a separate reserve fund. However if we ever do it is our policy to invest in the CBF Church of England Deposit Fund.

Parochial Church Council of St Andrew Countesthorpe Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ending 31 December 2022

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Accounting Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing accounts in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102, and with the Charities Act 2011.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and on the Going Concern basis.

Funds

Restricted funds represent donations or grants received for a specific object or invited by the PCC for a specific object. The funds may only be expended on the specific object for which they were given.

General funds represent the funds of the PCC that are not subject to any restrictions regarding their use and are available for application on the general purposes of the PCC. Funds designated for a particular purpose by the PCC only are also unrestricted.

The accounts include all transactions, assets and liabilities for which the PCC is responsible in law. They do not include the accounts of church groups that owe their main affiliation to another body or those that are informal gatherings of church members.

Incoming resources

Voluntary income and capital sources

Collections are recognised when received by or on behalf of the PCC. Planned giving receivable under Gift Aid is recognised only when received. Income Tax recoverable on Gift Aid donations is recognised when the income is receivable. Grants and legacies to the PCC are accounted for as soon as the PCC is notified of its legal entitlement, the amount due is quantifiable and it is received.

Other income

Rental income from the letting of church premises is recognised when the rental is receivable.

Bank interest is recognised when credited

5

Parochial Church Council of St Andrew Countesthorpe Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ending 31 December 2022 continued

Resources used

Grants

Grants and donations are accounted for when paid over (i.e. a cheque is issued), or when awarded, if that award creates a binding obligation on the PCC.

Activities directly relating to the work of the church

The Diocesan Parish Contribution is accounted for when paid (i.e. a cheque is issued). Any Contribution unpaid at 31 December, but is intended to be paid, is provided for in these accounts as an operational (though not a legal) liability and is shown as a creditor in the Balance Sheet.

Fixed assets

Consecrated property and moveable church furnishings

Consecrated and beneficed property of any kind is excluded from the accounts under the provisions of the Charities Act 2011.

Moveable church furnishings held by the Vicar and Churchwardens on special trust for the PCC, and which require a faculty for disposal, are accounted as inalienable property unless consecrated. They are listed in the church’s Inventory which can be inspected (at any reasonable time). For inalienable property acquired prior to about 1990 there is insufficient cost information available and therefore such assets are not valued in the accounts. Items acquired since 1 January 1990 have been capitalised in the accounts and are now being depreciated on a straight line basis over 10 years, their currently anticipated useful economic life. The railings and gates, having a much longer anticipated useful life, are being depreciated on a straight line basis over 40 years.

All expenditure incurred in the year on consecrated or beneficed buildings, or individual items under about £1000, or on the repair of moveable church furnishings acquired before 1990, is written off.

Other fixtures, fittings and office equipment

Equipment used within the church premises is depreciated on a straight line basis over 5 years unless the decision is taken to not do so. Individual items with a purchase price of £1000 or less are written off when the asset is acquired.

Current assets

Amounts owing to the PCC at 31 December in respect of fees, rents or other income are shown as debtors, provided they are not considered to be irrecoverable.

Liabilities

Liabilities are recognised when it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the PCC to pay out resources, and the amount can be measured with reasonable certainty.
