All Saints N20 Report and Accounts for year ending 31st December 2021 Aim and purposes The Parochial Church Council of All Saint5. Friern Barnet (the "PCU or'we") co-operates with the clergy based in the parish. in promoting public worship, teaching, evangelism and pastoral work in the ecclesiastical parish of All Saints, Friern Barnet lalso known as All Saints, N201, and in supporting other charities in the UK and overseas. The PCC is also responsible for the maintenance and operation of All Saint5. church hall. Objectives and activities The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our church and to become part of our parish community at All Saints,. Our services and worship put faith into practice through prayer and scripture, music and sacrament. When planning it5 activities for the year the PCC and the incumbent considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. The PCC tries to enable people to live out their faith as part of our parish community through: worship and prayer, teaching the gospel, and developing their knowledge and trust in Jesus the provision of pastoral care for those living in the parish missionary and outreach work. All of this can be summarised by the PCC considerin& in everything tt does, the core tenets of its Mission Action Plan= Reaching out Making disciples Growing in God. To facilitate and support thi5 work it is important that the PCC maintains the fabric of All Saints, Church and the church hall.
All Saints, N20 Report and Accounts for year ending 31st December 2021 All Saints N20 Achievements and performance Worship and prayer Last year we said that the year 2020 was a year quite unlike anything seen in the history of All Saints,. 2021 has been better- especially towards the end ol the year, although still not a normal year. All our service5 are open to the wider comrnunity beyond our regular All Saints. worshipper5, and we welcome equally all who join us for worship. We began the year as we had ended 2020, with the Covid-19 pandemic meaning we were without services in church, with our regular weekly Eucharist being broadcast online. Sadly, this continued until a joyous return to 'in person" services on Palm Sunday, Sunday 18, March. Even then. services were very different to normal- every other pew closed to enforce social distancing, people were asked to wear masks and use hand sanitizer, a largely said service with organ and an anthem from the choir, and we used a temporary altar at the top of the chancel steps. We continued to broadcast our services live from church for those who were shielding or felt unable attending large gathering5. Junior Church returned ftir the first time in over a year after Easter. and we thank Lucy Meredith for leading Junior Church throughout the rest of the year. From then on there came a gradual relaxation of rules: from late July we began to sing one hymn in the service. from August we sang the responses too- 2nd at the end of September we began to sing three hymns, did not enforce social distancing Iwhile retaining one or two "distanced" pews for the vulnerable). relaxed mask wearing and stopped broadcasting online as few, if any people, were tuning in. This was an end to 18 months of live streaming our 10am Sunday Eucharist. which would not have been possible without the commitment and hard work of our warden, Julian Olver and Linda Folan. with assistance from David Lane. Julian Olver was also responsible for much of the work in church and in the background to enable us to open for service5, for which we give thanks. A weekday Eucharist returned in September, gathering a small but loyal congregation, and after 18 months, our regular Sunday morning Eucharist at 8am according to the Book of Common Prayer returned. Sadly. in the intervening period some of the stalwarts of this service had died, and the service struggled to achieve a congregation, which would lead in the New Year to it moving to a monthly, not weekly service. We continued throughout the year to broadcast Fnorning and evening prayer daily to a small but very loyal congregation. This has become a regular part of our spiritual life, continuing throughout the year.
All Saints, N20 Report and Accounts for year ending 31st December 2021 All Saints N20 We also held weekday study groups in Lent and in the Autumn, led by Fr Harry and our Licensed Lay Minister, Marina Sotiriou. for which we thank them. Throughout the Autuffln, services continued, more or less normally until the end of the year, although there was a return to mask wearing during the December surge in Covid infection rates, following our usual pattern. albeit with congregations smaller than we were enjoying before the pandemic= a weekly Sunday morning Eucharist at 8am according to the Book of Common Prayer a weekly Sunday morning Eucharist at 10am according to Common Worship designed for a broad range of people, including families a Eucharist one morning a week Weekday morning and evening prayer online. The most significant ovont of the year, however. was the arrival of our new priest-in- th charge. the Revd Kim Quak-winslow, who w35 licensed on 5 September. It had been announced in February that we were to share our new priest with St John the Apostle, whose parish is the other half ol Whetstone. Accordingly, the licensing service began in St John's, progressed to All Saints. and concluded there. This means that in the future the PCC will have to develop a spirit of co-operation with our friends and colleagues at St John's. The PCC looks forward to working closely with them in the future. The parish is enormou51y grateful to Fr Harry. who throughout the eighteen-month interregnum took the majority of our services and offered spiritual comfort to our parish. The PCC'S standing committee should also be thanked for its leadership of the parish throughout the interregnum. Deanery Synod The Barnet Deanery Synod met once duringthe year, and provides the PCC with an important link between the parish and the wider structures of the church. Children and Young People During term time we run "Little Saints" a playgroup in the hall, open to the wider community, and which is usually busy and great fun. Since the return of Junior Church numbers have been lower than before the pandemic struck, but it is wonderful to see the children in our church services again.
All Saints. N20 Report and Accounts for year ending 31st December 2021 All Saints N20 Before the pandemic. we started to develop a scheme. working with the school, to provide meals and play activities to disadvantaged local children during the holiday5. £1,800 was raised before the pandemic struck. but ur)fortunately subsequently those who were loading this project moved away or could not devote the same time. We could not see that we could easily resurrert this scheme. and so, with the consent of the donor5, we closed the scheme and donated the moneyto All Saints, School to help fund their provision of wrap around care. Pastoral care The Wednesday morning Coffee, Cake and Cleaning Club in church. which brings together priests. cleaners, flower arrangers and gardener5, a5 well as those wanting a cup of coffee and a chat, was able to restart in July. We are grateful to all those who attend for their work cleaning the church and maintaining the garden. Mission, outreach and evangelism The PCC distributes a weekly newsletter by email- at thè end of the year there were over 190 recipients. The PCC maintain a website. a "Church Near You" page, a Facebook page followed at the end of the year by 389 people and a Twitter feed. Throughout the year, even when the church was closed for services. we have collected for the foodbank at St Barnabas's Church in North Finchley. The Organ The organ at the rear of the church is almost 40 years old, and for the first time required substantial repairs in the135t year, to remove, repair and replace about forty pipes, which were bent or broken- including being held together by gaffer tape - through continuous use, and replace corroded tuning wire5. Fortunately we were able to pay for this work using part of a legacy for the repair of the church. The organ will in the near future require a significant clean, for which we will have to raise funds at the time. Inter-faith relationships The PCC maintains good relationships with the adjoining Sha'arei Tsedek, the North London Reform Synagogue, which uses the church hall for overflow services. The PCC was sad that the Muslim prayer group that had used the church hall on a Friday afternoon for many years did not return afterthe pandemic having found new premises.
All Saints, N20 Report and Accounts for year ending 31st December 2021 All Saints N20 Safeguarding The PCC confirms that it has complied with the duty under Section 5 of the Safeguarding and Clergy Discipline Measure 2016 (duty to have regard to House of Bishops. guidance on safeguarding children and vulnerable adults). Financial review Just like 2020, 2021 was a very difficult year financially due to the pandemic as our income fell substantially through the lack of, and later low, attendance at services, especially Christmas, and the inability to let the hall for much of the year. Looking at church, as opposed to church hall, unrestricted Voluntary Giving fell over the year to £35,75012020.'£40,225), but was supplemented by one large donation which is only to be used for rep3ir5 to the church hall. The reduction is principally due to a significant reduction in collections at services to £4.47712020.- £8.967), and 15 less than a third of the 2019 figure. Income was helped by a very successful Christma5 Fair, which helped fund raising events raise £4.51612020.- £938) before c05tS. The costs of running the church rose, but. unlike in 2020, where we paid our Common Fund contribution to the diocese in full (unlike a good many churches), in June 2021 we agreed with the diocese to reduce our payments in the Second half of the year because of the continuing impact ofthe pandemic. As a result, we paid £32,50012020.- £40.0001. All this meant that on ordinary non-church hall item5. our income was £64,09612020.' £68,247) and our expenditure was £60,804 (2020.- £64,6461. Thus, there was a surplus on the day-to-day activities excluding the church hall of £3,2932 {2020.- £3. 7811. As in 2020, the church hall was closed for part of the year. although in practice it wa5 open more than 2020. As a result. income from hall lettings rose to £26,92712020.' £19,870). but this is still about half of the 2019 figure. On the other hand, bar takings declined slightly to £4,03412020.' £5.465J which is still less than a fifth of the 2019 figure. This reflects that the dance groups were able to return later than other groups, and numbers attending their events. which drive the bar takings, has not yet risen to previous levels. Sadly, at the end of tho year our most profitable dance group decided to stop operating. We were able to mothball the hall for the early month5 of the year and make savings in running costs, leading to a reduction in hall running costs to £11,61312020.' £15,227), and we employed no bai staff and bought no bar stock until afterjuly. Our hall staff were on full or partial furlough until late in the year, which meant we received, in respect of the hall, £7,70012020.- £10,066) in Coronavirusjob Retention Scheme grants.
All Saints, N20 Report and Accounts for year ending 31st December 2021 All Sainis N20 Overall, our hall income was £39,489 {2020.- £36,837) and expenditure was £43,183 12020.. £48. 7521, leading to a loss on activities in the hall of £3,69412020.- £11,915). Thus, overall, on ordinary activities. we made a loss of £40212020.. £8.1341. Do note that all 2020 figure5 have been restated to a Receipts and Payments ba515 to reflect the 2021 figures. Reserves Our reserves, which had been built up against the likelihood of contribution to the cost of the spire works now stand at £61,260. The PCC will use the remaining funds as a day to day reserve, and for anticipated future works to our heating and lighting in church and to the hall. Volunteers The PCC would like to thank all the many parishioners who volunteei to work so hard to make All Saints, the lively and vibrant community it is, whether they be churchwardens. our welcoming team, PCC members, choristers. servers. cleaners, gardeners, flower arranger5, bell-rinEers, those helping to run the halls, those helping in our fundraising or to organise social events orthose who work ehildren and young people. Their contribution is invaluable, and All Saints. could not function without them. The PCC would like to thank Steph Williamson, who stood down as churchwarden during the year, for everything she did and achieved for the church in her seven years as warden, having stayed on an extra year to assist during the pandemic and to cover the interregnum. We wish her well in her retirement and move to North Yorkshire. Administration, structure, governance and management All Saint5, Church is situated at 122 Oakleigh Road North, London N20 9EX.
