Achievements and performance
Worship and prayer
During 2020 - 2021 the God is able have made regular adaptations to respond to the restrictions of
the Covid-19 pandemic. There have been times of closure enforced by the
Government restrictions, and times of closure when the God is able Ministries considered it was
necessary for the health and safety of our fellowship. Each week there has been a
recorded service available on the church website and online services, and a DVD
recording has been made available to those who do not have access to the internet.
Any services that have been held in church have been subject to all the latest guidance
on the necessary health and safety precautions. The church remained open for one
session each week for private prayer, help for elderly and vulnerable people in the community to get hot meal and collect their medication from the Pharmacist. During the year we reviewed our services and held a
consultation day, the outcome was a change in service format that came into place in October
– the new format will be reviewed in March 2022.
Youth and Children
The usual weekly activities for youth and children moved to an
online provision using creative solutions to maintain contact, whilst meeting all
safeguarding requirements whilst the church was closed and returned to in person meetings as
soon as was possible. It was not possible to hold any residential trips, but an in person,
reduced size, holiday club was run in the building during August.
Schools work has been restricted for the whole of this year due to the Pandemic, however we
have provided some pre-recorded Collective Worship sessions.
A review of the youth and children’s work was completed during the year and the new
provisions put into place at the start of the autumn term including a new Youth Café on
Tuesdays and new Sunday morning groups.
Pastoral Care
Our pastoral care team have continued to take care of those members of the
fellowship who are unwell or in need. This work has been especially important whilst
many of our fellowship are experiencing such isolation. The work continues to be led
by the Pastoral care co-ordinators and supported by our volunteers.
Mission and Outreach
The mission committee have led the support for many organisations throughout the
year both financially and prayerfully and by raising awareness. We have also run an online
Alpha course during the period when the building was closed.
Volunteers
We would like to thank all the many volunteers who work so hard to make our church
the lively community it is, and without whom the work would not take place.
