Section C Objectives and activities

Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document

To advance the Christian faith in accordance with the objects of the Presbyterian Church of Wales as set out in the Rules which includes serving our community through practical activity

The Elders are committed to ensuring that that Church is a worshipping and serving Christian community in our local area. The Elders are concerned to ensure that the activities that occur within the building and beyond are effective in promoting the values and principles of the Christian faith. We aim to incorporate as wide as possible an expression of activities from regular worship and praise and prayer to Bible Study and community service.

We have considered the Commission’s guidance on public benefit and in particular, the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion.

Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)

We try to ensure that there are opportunities for everyone with whom we have contact to understand the implications of the Christian faith and to live it out and practice it in the world in their ordinary lives.

We focus on worship and prayer, learning about the Gospel and the teaching of the Bible in general and helping people learn the implications of living the Christian life. We provide pastoral care for those who seek it and attempt to reach out in mission and service to any who do not yet understand what the Christian faith is.

Section D Achievements and performance

Leadership Team

During the past year we enhanced the leadership team with the appointment of Phil Jenkins as an Assistant Minister. An experienced leader, he has been able to strengthen the leadership capabilities of the church and provide specific support in pastoral care and the Worship and Teaching programme. Throughout 2022 the Minister, Rev. Owen Batstone, Phil Jenkins and elders have ensured continuity of the delivery of the aims of the church’s ministry with the appropriate stipulated support of the Presbyterian Church of Wales (PCW), throughout the variable restrictions on work imposed by Covid restriction. We have used technology and phone contact to ensure the pastoral care, worship, teaching, mission, and community support work continued.

Wherever safe and permissible we have restarted face to face meetings, within the restrictions allowed by the Welsh Government, whilst continuing to supplement with the use of Zoom or YouTube channels to enable those unwell or shielding to join us. Risk assessments for all meetings have been updated as appropriate. This included restarting our all age weekly meeting programme and the commencement of a new Church Bible Course. Each group leader has completed necessary risk assessments and room allocation and time slots have been arranged to ensure accommodation is clean, well ventilated and large enough for groups. Groups do not overlap and therefore do not need to use shared entrances. Rooms are not reused within 48 hours and the cleaning schedule has been strengthened. Changes to restrictions and consequent changes to our programme, have been dealt with promptly. When possible, anticipatory plans were in place whenever the Covid impact on the community (and therefore suspected changes in Welsh restrictions) made this appear necessary. The Minister, assistant minister and small group of Elders manage the more day to day running of the church, whilst reporting to the full group using the monthly meetings. These are held in person with appropriate distancing, with the addition of the Zoom facility for those who wish to join remotely. The Church continues to be supported by the Rev Wayne Adams of PCW. We continue to communicate with our members and community through a regular e-newsletter supplemented by communication at our services (in person and online) and in our Social media pages. When a vote for trustee business is required, we have used an online voting tool supported by phone conversations for those that are not online. This has ensured participation in decision making by the committee and Elders has been high. The team has completed the necessary risk assessments for the Presbyterian Church for any activities and has ensured content has been shared widely in the denomination.

Worship and Prayer

The return of Church services to the building in a COVID secure manner whilst maintaining an online broad

cast has meant that the form of the service has been slightly adapted. Congregational singing is still impacted by the requirement to wear masks and, the variety of contributors and musical instruments are restricted to a degree by the need for microphones and amplification. Similarly group work with Children and services requiring closer interactions such as communion have required more thought. The Trustees (Elders) remain committed to ensuring that there is a variety of expressions of Christian worship from traditional organ led worship to praise band choruses, from reflective and prayerful meditation to more exuberant and energetic praise. This year we have been able to use more live music lead by the Worship group supported by recorded music. We have invested in improved Audio visual technology to improve the quality of our broadcasts, improve engagement and enhance the congregational aspect of our services. We have developed and grown our media team. We celebrated Holy Communion outside again this year as a separate, walk in service when good weather permitted and also held an evening communion service in the Church prior to the most recent escalation in December 2022. We intend to restart this as the first step in restarting evening Sunday meetings as the restrictions are eased. We welcome all those of a Christian faith who wish to participate regardless of formal allegiance. Anyone who is unable to attend can be contacted and visited at home or in hospital, as regulations permit, by the Minister and the Elder who has pastoral charge of them. We work closely with the Hospital Chaplains. The Minister takes communion regularly to members who request it.

The weekly prayer meeting continues to meet face to face with an additional Zoom participation option, to pray, especially for those who have requested such support and to remember the needs of the world and our community. House groups have restarted socially distant meetings with some using remote access as an additional option. A weekly church bible group meets in the church with an online option and, a monthly bible hour for young people uses similar methods. We have also held a series of online shared meals around the feasts of the Bible, we have been joined in this by members of other churches. During the year we have welcomed a number of new members to the Church.

The Wider Community

Despite the Church being restricted in our ability to meet in person for large parts of this year we have tried to ensure our message and online presence makes it clear we are available to serve and support the community. We have, when opportunities permit, dropped off gifts to the local community, and provided Gifts for disadvantaged Children at Christmas. We were able to hold a number of events over Christmas including community Carol singing in the Care Park. We have held a few specific Charity collections over the year. The Car Park Communion has been well attended by many from outside the Church membership and we have sought to provide comfort and support for those bereaved. There have been a number of new people who have connected with the Church output in its various forms over the past year, we have been approached for spiritual support and received positive feedback from individuals who have received benefit from some of our outreach. As we reopen our meetings we continue to ensure that the Church is both accessible to, and provides for, the practical and spiritual needs of our community.

We were pleased to start a regular weekly meeting for Children in addition to the young children work. The Trustees are concerned that such community youth and family work is important and must be built upon, not only for the long-term benefit of the church, but of the wider community. To that end the trustees are reviewing the possibility of growing the leadership team and reviewing groups offered and the need for increase in the Church leadership team for the church to continue this valued work.
