TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

CHARITABLE OBJECT

The primary aims of the Trust are to fulfil the role of a Christian Church in the Rochdale and district area and to provide help to others in promoting the Christian faith in the United Kingdom and overseas.

THE CHURCH : ITS AIMS AND OBJECTIVES

The Church is a gathering of ordinary people of different ages and backgrounds, whose lives have been changed by Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the Saviour of the World.

The New Testament describes the Church as a community of people, properly taught and cared for, who by knowing Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour and loving and serving Him, are also committed to love and care for each other and to bring a blessing to the area in which they live.

Milnrow Evangelical Church, its Trustees and members are committed to the maintenance of these New Testament principles, as also are many other Churches, not only in this country, but also all over the world.

The powers of appointment or removal of Trustees rests with the Trustees. New Trustees are selected from within the elders and deacons of the Church, appointed in accordance with the Members’ manual. This means that the Trustee body is whole heartedly involved in fulfilling the mission of the Church worked out in practice. New Trustees are made aware of their responsibilities and of the legal and financial framework in which the Church operates.

The Church employs one Elder full time and one part time Administrator, but all members are involved in the work. Each member does what they are able as time and abilities permit. Some are involved in leading the worship services, or in a teaching ministry. Others are able to visit the sick and needy. All are involved in prayer for the work and in its financial support.

THE YEAR: ITS OBJECTIVES AND ACHIEVEMENTS

During the year ended 31 March 2023 the church faced further challenges, as government rules concerning covid were further relaxed. In April 2022, the government said that churches could sing without people wearing masks. Due to ongoing concerns by some, this practice was not implemented until 1[st] May 2022. Even with this delay, some struggled with the change.

In July and August 2022, the paid pastor had a two-month ministry break to allow him time to deal with practical matters in connection with the death of his parents and the advanced dementia of his mother-in-law.

The work of the church continued with activities becoming more like how they were before covid. Home Groups restarted in October 2022. Outreach activities returned to how they were before covid, with a Light Party started for the first time at the end of October. A men’s meeting was started in April 2022, which met on Saturdays, once a month at first. This increased to twice a month in 2023. Communion continued to be held just once a month, not twice a month as happened before covid.

The main ways that the Church has sought to achieve the calling of Christ upon it and its charitable purposes for the public benefit have been as follows:

• Lord’s Day Services.

Our main Sunday services continued each Sunday at 11.00a.m. and 6.00p.m. We continued to ventilate the hall and sanitize our hands to limit the spread of germs. We also provided a no singing room for those who prefer not to sing as part of a congregation indoors, but this then returned to its former use for praying before the services.

A time of fellowship was held after the evening service with refreshments.

We continued to live stream our services, and keep the video recordings on our church Facebook page, but stopped including the words for the hymns and the PowerPoint slides on the live stream. This was to save work and encourage people to return to the meetings in the church.

Page 3

* Morning Prayer Meetings.

This prayer meeting was kept online using Zoom and met three mornings a week at 9.00a.m till 9.40am. This was to retain the increased numbers we had had during the pandemic.

* Midweek Meetings.

On a Wednesday morning and evening the ladies meet for Bible study, fellowship and prayer. These meetings have continued to use Zoom, but increasing numbers have met in person as restrictions were eased.

On a Thursday evening at 7.45 p.m. there is a Bible Study and Prayer Meeting. Home Groups restarted in October 2022.

Two of our older members died and both funerals were held at the church.

* Trainee.

The church took on a self-employed trainee, called Paul Morgan, on 1[st] October 2022 for a further twelve-month period. He was supported by the church and lived in the church flat. He helped with outreach, youth work and preaching.

* Missionary Support.

This year £26,430 was donated for the support of missionary work worldwide.

In addition, we had a special gift day in December 2022 to support Christians working among Ukrainian refugees. This was divided equally between a church in Poland and UFM, and raised a total of £10,142.65.

We had a separate gift day in February 2023 for the work of African Pastor’s Conferences (APC). We raised £5,615.81.

We also agreed to lend £17,500 to Wilstead Evangelical Church in November 2022 to enable them to buy a new church building. The funds were transferred in February 2023 and are expected to be repaid within 12-18 months.

* Outreach.

This work returned, more or less, to how it was before covid.

Book table work. We continued our outreach using book tables. We offer Bibles, Gospels, Christian books and leaflets. We run 2 book tables

Page 4

in Rochdale town center each week and help with another in Halifax once a week.

Open Airs. We continued with our open airs once a month in Rochdale, meeting on a Saturday. We have Gospel messages preached with the help of visual aids, hand out Christian literature and have discussions with any who show interest.

Door to door visitation. We have restarted door to door visitation now that covid concerns have eased. We do this when the weather is not suitable for the book tables and during our Week of Outreach.

Leaflet Distribution. We continue to deliver Christian literature and invitations to various church meetings. These are mostly done in connection with special events; Christmas, Easter and ‘Week of Outreach’ meetings in particular.

Personal Bible Studies. We run personal Bible studies for those who want to understand more about the Christian faith. In particular, we often run ‘Christianity Explored’ for those who are desiring to be baptised and join the church to ensure that they understand clearly what being a Christian means.

Our annual Week of Outreach took place in late August / early September as usual. We ran a normal programme of outreach in 2022 with an encouraging number of helpers and gospel conversations. We ran an evangelistic men’s breakfast and special Sunday services, to which people were invited.

We continued running our meetings for mothers / fathers / carers and their young children, called Stay & Play . The purpose of this meeting is to build relationships with local families and seek opportunities to share the gospel.

We continued running our youth work . This included Good News Club for primary school age children and JETS, for secondary school aged children.

During the month of December we had a Christmas Supper, a Carol Service and a Christmas Day service to which neighbours and friends were invited.

* Word of Hope Ministries.

This work continues to be in demand, with orders coming for the literature from various parts of the country and a number of requests coming from abroad. The drop in demand due to covid gradually picked up as more outreach was being done.

Page 5

This work is maintained by a group of devoted volunteers who give many hours of their time each year.

* Hospitality.

Hospitality was gradually restored as people become less worried about the risks of catching covid.

* Church Website.

The church website (www.milnrow.org) continues to be a valuable asset to members of the church and viewers from outside. MP3 audios and MP4 videos are regularly accessed through the website. These include messages preached at the church on Thursdays and Sundays, by various speakers. Videos are available to watch, sharing personal stories of faith in Jesus Christ, and answers to life’s questions. A book offer is often available for visitors wishing to know more.

Activities of the church are advertised using this platform; from Youth groups to seasonal Suppers.

The website continues to be linked to other sites such as www.the christiananswer.org; which provides more educational materials on the Christian faith, resulting in a number of requests for Christian literature. Jesus-islam.com is another; providing information for the many who enquire into the Christian faith from a Muslim background. It is now available in English, French, Arabic, Urdu and Persian. AndyMcIntosh.org is another website that provides helpful information on science and creation.

The church’s website is updated by a member of the church skilled in the area of IT, guided by our previous Pastor; the author of the website.

The church also has a Facebook page on which most meetings are livestreamed. These videos are then available for people to watch at any time.

* Supporting Other Christian Works.

Help is provided with a number of other churches and organisations, particularly in support of their outreach;

Halifax Grace Baptist Church : Members of our church help weekly on a Thursday with general outreach. We also participate in their annual outreach week in September.

Chorlton Evangelical Church . We support their week of outreach, which was in June 2022 with helpers and in prayer.

Page 6

United Beach Missions . Church members are involved in leadership of and participating in teams throughout the year. These teams operate in the UK and also in continental Europe.

Many from our church helped the Christian Answer (CA) team in London in June 2022, during Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee, as well as other CA teams around the UK over the summer period.

The Open-Air Mission . Members support their monthly outreaches in Manchester and have worked together with them occasionally in Bolton.

We also assist other local churches by providing preachers from the church to assist them in their ministry.

* Food Bank and Samaritan’s Purse

We have an ongoing voluntary collection of food from members, which is donated to the local food bank. In addition, some members fill shoe boxes and donate them to Samaritan’s Purse.

* Pastoral Care.

During the year our pastors have also been involved in the support of a number of members and others who attend the church who have had a variety of problems.

* Personal Bible studies.

These studies have continued in person and online with the use of Zoom if preferred.

* Safe-Guarding Policy.

The Church operates systems to ensure that all people working with children and vulnerable adults are appropriately vetted with regards to their suitability for their work, including all necessary legal checks. The safeguarding policy is reviewed annually.

* Public Benefit.

The Trustees have read the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit, and are satisfied that the activities outlined above clearly demonstrates that the church is providing a benefit to the public.

Page 7

* Trustees.

This year, Stephen Perrott, a long-standing trustee, retired from the diaconate and trusteeship. A further new deacon; Edgar Moreira, was appointed, and also became a trustee. Two men from outside the church, were considered as possible new elders and trustees, but one chose to serve elsewhere and the other did not prove suitable.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

The work of the church during this past year has been both challenging and encouraging. We have adjusted the life and work of the church to take account of the relaxation of covid restrictions. We have started up a new men’s meeting and held a Light Party for the first time.

The membership has seen a number of changes. Two of our older members died. One member was removed from membership due to lack of attendance and one new member rejoined us after a period away during the pandemic. The total membership thus reduced by two to 63.

The various mid-week meetings continue to be well attended.

THE NEW YEAR

The spiritual goals of the church remain the same. The impact of Covid19 has largely passed, but there are still some lingering impacts. All the activities of the church and needs of the members are under regular review, and ongoing adjustments will be required to face the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.

The church is actively addressing the vacancy left by the retirement of David and Colette Harding.

Page 8

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The church is entirely dependent upon the generous giving of its members as we have no collections, but there is an offering box at the back of the church. The full financial results for the year are set out in the accompanying financial statement.

The Trustees have set a policy of retaining reserves sufficient for the foreseeable needs of the church to enable the church to function effectively in the coming year.

The Trustees have made an assessment of the major risks facing the church, and are satisfied that there are insurance policies in place to minimise these risks. All major insurable risks are subject to normal Churches and employers’ insurance.

Charity law requires the Trustees to prepare accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the church and of the profit and loss of the Charity for that period. The Trustees confirm that the accounts comply with the current statutory requirements and those of the Charity’s trust deed.

Approved by the Board of Trustees on 4/12/23.
