We recognise under God a group of Elders who, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, encourage the spiritual life of all members and provide leadership and direction in the Church's ministry. These Elders include a Pastor, Jamie Cater, whose gift in teaching, pastoral care and outreach has been recognised by the Church, and is appointed and employed by the Church to exercise such a ministry. Until August 2024 the Church employed Lizzie Starkey as Youth and Children's Worker IYCWI. Following Lizzie's resignation for personal reasons, the Church employed Zach G Wilson in this role from September 2024. The YCW has overall responsibility for ministries to and/or irbvolving young people land, where appropriate, their families) although the ministries may be headed up by other church members.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE Object5 and aims The purpose of the Church is the advancement of the Christian faith lin accordance with the Statement of Beliefs set out in the Memorandum of Association) in the surrounding neighbourhood, in Reading, in the United Kingdom and in overseas countries where we have connections. Our Christian faith is given practical expression in the local community arbd further afield through various forms of social action. Worship and service Our main act of corporate worship is on a Sunday morning, with a combination of singing, prayers, teaching and other supporting content, with separate activities IL-Zone and T-zonel for young people during part of the service. Although struttured this is a generally informal time. The teaching Isermonl 15 primarily undertaken by the Pastor, supplemented by occasional guest speakers, following a programme of topics and Bible passaEes. Since early 2020 this seTvice has been live-streamed on our YouTube chanrbel Ihttps'./lwww. youtube.com/argylecommunitychurchl. As in previous years, we have taken advantage of our streaming software to include remote presentations and pre-recorded sermons when a speaker could not be present locally. Although not live-streamed we were also able to make available online the video of a service we held outdoors in the summer. During 2024 we held 3 baptism services, with nine church members affirming Jesus as their Saviour. Communion (the Lord's Supper) is normally celebrated every week, either in the Sunday morning service or as part of a Sunday evening prayer meeting. Other meetings for prayer, Bible study, fellowship and mutual support are held at various times during the week. Some of these meeting5 use Zoom lor 3 hybrid of Zoom/live attendance) where this makes practical sense, for example: Elders, prayer meetings at 7..30am on a Friday morning. or lifegroup or evening prayer meetings in the winter months.

ARGYLE COMMUNITY CHURCH READING TRUSTEES, REPORT, contlnued FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 Public beneflt We look to be active in our community seeking to help our neighbours through friendship and social action, providing activities designed for young and old, men and women, families and the many different nationalities that live nearby. To this end each week we run.. English Language classes for Internationals- term-time only I'Bridges'l,' a parent/carer and toddlers group I'Honeypot'l weekly pre-booking is required to ensure numbers are manageable; a parent/carer and baby group I'Little Bees'l- no booking has been needed for this- a youth evening 'Connect' Ifor year 95 and abovel- a debt counselling service, in partnership with 'Frontline'. With support from other local churches we host an international cafe, 'iCaf'. twice monthly in a local community hub- this is a social event primarily for internationals, giving them an opportunity to use English in an informal setting. Along with other churches we are a full partner of Torch Ihttps'./ltorchhub.org.ukl which offers 'A helping hand from local churches. to those in need in our area. Throughout the year we hold regular and irregular social events. such as a men's breakfast lat the local IKEA), a ladies, coffee morning, and men's and ladies, walks. The church building and its facilities have also been available, subject to certain criteria, for use by individuals and local or national organisations for private use such as parties, meetings or conferences. In particular in 2024 we had arrangements with Hope into Action (Reading), 2..19 Teach to Reach, Grow Faith, and Horizon Therapies for regular use of our building. We also regularly support, both financially and prayerfully.. local social action organisations such as 'Christian Community Action, (furniture exchange and social care advice), The Mustard Tree Ihelping individuals in needl, and Street Pastors,. Christian organisations working in Reading schools, such as 'Reach' and 'REln5pired'; Christian workers with whom we have particular contact, in the UK and around the world. In 2024 we supported the TearFund 'Big Quiz Night, and raised almost £500 for this organisation. A5 a result of the above activities and links, there are tangible benefits in personal and family relationships including those affected by drug and alcohol related problems, as well as deeper spiritual relationships for all. As a Church we support Fairtrade, ethical and sustainable products as much as possible, for our beverages. consumables and cleaning materials. We look to recycle plastic and paper waste, collect food waste after Church lunches, and have had solar panels for over ten years.

ARGYLE COMMUNITY CHURCH READING TRUSTEES, REPORT. continued FOR THEYEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 Integration of International church members One of our 'straplines' is 'A church for all nations, and we are pleased to welcome worshippers of many nationalities from across the world. From September 2021 in particular, a number of immigrants from Hong Kong have joined us and become an integr31 part of the fellowship taking on key roles, joining rotas and helping lead services- a Cantonese- speaking lifegroup meets twice a month and in 2024 two Cantonese-language Alpha courses have taken place. No separate Cantonese fellowship is planned. To help those in the Church who are from Hong Kong - and their friends/contacts - settle in the UK we have run a number of Welcome Courses over recent years, in conjunction with the UKHK organisation, explaining about healthcare and other aspects of life in the UK. In 2024 this continued with a course in the Autumn with over 50 people registered. Although Hong Kong members form a significant proportion of the Sunday morning congregation, we have welcomed many other nationalities, in particular Spanish and Portuguese speakers, some of whom were living in Reading with refugee status. As many new people have recently joined Argyle certain Sundays during 2024 were designated 'Label Sundays, when we wore name labels and got to know each other better. Exceptional financial expenditure As mentioned in last year's report it had become apparent in recent year5 that the external fire escape steps leading from the upper room at the south end of the building need replacing, and this was expected to be a major item of expenditure in 2024. However, the design of the new fire escape has proved complicated and there has been some delay in progressing with this projett,. it is now expected to be completed in 2025. The current fire escape remains useable but mitigating measures have been put in place to reduce the risk of using The 'Manse' in Deepdene Close 15 occupied by the Pastor and hi5 family, and has suffered from damp in recent years. Investigations have taken place to identify the cause of this and some remedial work has been undertaken in 2024, but more is anticipated in 2025. As stated above, our full-time Youth and Children's Worker has been replaced by another full-time YCW but supplemented by a part-time YCW and our costs in this area have therefore significantly increased. These three major items have had an impact on costs in 2024 (with more anticipated in 20251, and our budget was significantly exceeded. However, partly thanks to a generous restricted gift to cover the extra YCW costs, our income also increased and matched the budget excess. Future costs, particularly for the fire escape. are expected to be covered by reserves without affecting our principle of retaining a cash buffer of three months, planned expenditure, although we continue to rely on God's provision through his people.

It is constantly reviewed in the light of changes to the safeguarding standards developed by the thirtyone.'eight organisation Iformerly CCPASI. In 2023 we were made aware that a married couple within Argyle were experiencing relationship issues. and our Pastor and the Safeguarding lead were involved in attempting to help the couple with their difficulties. In late 2024 we were contacted by a third-party who was concerned that this response was faulty. Whilst recognising that matters could have been handled better, the Trustees 5UPPQrt the Pastor and stand by the Statement of Beliefs as listed in our Memorandum of Association,. however, this incident has prompted a complete review of our Safeguarding and Complaints procedures which will take place in 2025.

The Church's primary asset is an unencumbered freehold building which is gaining in value although it is being depreciated at 2% per annum. The ChLtrch maintains 3 healthy cash balance- £104,002 at 31 December 202412023 - £97,557). Reserves polity The Trustees aim to maintain free reserves equivalent to three months average giving to the general fund, which equates to £35,000.

Financial reports to Trustees, meetings always include details of the level of free reserves to ensure that spending decisions are made in accordance with the policy.
