He talked through the Action Plan and added other things that had happened to it: Ladies Night, Men’s Breakfasts, Carols at the Mausoleum.

There was a sincere ‘Thank you’ from Adrian to everyone who contributes to the teams who help in Church. Adrian was mindful that, at Trentham, we are blessed with so many people who give their time and energy.

The complete list is at the end of this document.

Vision document for next season. Action Plan 2020

Adrian re-shared the values we have before going onto the plan.

  1. Derek was Priested on June 20[th] , 2020 – this happened later because of Covid-19

  2. Youth and Children’s Pastor to be appointed

  3. Administration hours now 18 per week

  4. New caretaker appointment

  5. iKnowChurch fully implemented. Wendy is familiar with the system and trying to get everything in place

  6. Continue to encourage those who have a sense of leadership in Ordained or Lay ministry to come forward and to evaluate the Growing Leaders course

  7. Encourage young leaders too

  8. Expand Life Groups

  9. Newcomers lunch – to be regular when we can

  10. Continue Alpha course annually and other courses. Dick and Anna are running the Alpha course online with 18 people taking part from a start of 3. This is continuing through Zoom (not the ideal way to do it) but Dick is pleased with how it is proceeding. Jesus is on the case!!

  11. Discipleship course to get started, maybe online. Adrian suggested a meeting in Church

  12. Create Service Teams – not happened yet due to current situation. 8am service is going well and 10.30am on Wednesday is good. Not all the services are full at the moment. Services need to be booked and Track and Trace is used

  13. Develop a Vision for Prayer and Worship at 7pm on Sundays.

Focus on going deeper

  1. Away weekend – didn’t happen this year, but hopefully next year

  2. Outreach in the Community – to be as intentional as we can in the next few months. Pray we can connect more.

  3. To continue with the mini-series in Church services

  4. Ash Green outreach. Open The Book is going well in School and online now.

  5. Finalise the new website and branding – Dick France has worked very hard on this

  6. Connect with the Community whenever we can

  7. To grow the link with Malaysia

  8. Greenhouse Project. This is an outreach project which we looked at. It hoped to achieve what we have in our values. Derek thinks it never really caught on

  9. Youth Alpha. James and Cathy said the course went really well. It is hoped to run it again

  10. Youth Work – how can we disciple the young people in our Church? Stephanie Howie spoke about how she has been part of the various Church groups since she was 2 ½ years old, from the group at the back of the Church progressing through Basement. She said that Steff and Jason played a crucial part in her development and bringing out the best in young people. Children’s work is difficult at the moment and Steph feels a bit distant as Children’s work and Youth group are not happening

  11. Adrian said that the PCC want to do something about Youth Work and will advertise for a Youth and Children’s work Pastor, but we also need a dedicated team of people to support and work with them.

Adrian showed the APCM an advert that has been created by a small group. It needs to be someone who is a qualified youth worker, forward thinking and is passionate about God. The post should, realistically, have a salary of about £30,000. The APCM were positive about this step forward.

Proposal: to advertise for and pledge a team to this person. Proposed by Adrian. Seconded by Janice Hawkins. All in favour.

To support this proposal, it was suggested that we have people to intercess and pray for this situation regularly, get more young people involved in the services, i.e. Zoom, to encourage them. To have a day of prayer and fasting on November 7[th] ,2020. To pledge a team of people to support the new appointee by intercessions and to create a management team to support them.

David Finn prayed for this proposal.

Sue Thomas added ‘If I were a butterfly, I thank you God for giving me wings.’ She also thanked Stephanie too.

Adrian said that the Action Plan needs to work forward but also to adapt to any changes in the current situation.

Lisa Walters prayed for everything that had been discussed at the meeting. Jon Mueller prayed for Christian parents. Prayers too for Clive Willshaw. Janice Hawkins gave thanks to Adrian and Esther for their love and the vision documents. Final prayers were by Adrian.

Meeting ended at 8.30pm.

Reports submitted for the 2021 APCM

Church Wardens Report 2020/2021

This year we have completed several projects.

The church Centre now has two disabled toilets, a conversion on the first floor and a New Toilet in the Basement. The job has been finished to a high standard.

The final phase to replace the kitchen area is currently been considered, because of Covid we have had to delay the process.

The Graham Vestry Roof has now been completed. We have protected roof with the best modern material which should last for many years ahead.

We have installed a disabled alarm in the main disabled toilet in the church, installed two hand driers., a new electrical boiler to give instant hot water for the kitchen, and in both toilets.

We have installed a new Pump in the central heating boiler room to dispose of excess water from the system.

Phase 2 Electrical were called, to sort out an electrical fault in the Sutherland chapel and Vicar’s Vestry. A New main cable had to be fitted.

We had to replace some tiles from the main roof and point some of the brickwork on the south side of church as we discovered a leak in the vicar’s vestry.

Thanks go to all the contractors who have all done an excellent job.

Ben Lawton and his teams, Mellor Mottram, Phase 2 Electrical, Brown Haywood Brown.

Iris, and Ann George. have been occupied in making sure that all our church family are on our contact lists during this difficult period. Throughout August they organised and invited parishioners who are unable to Zoom to attend a service. We really hope that all our church family have been kept informed about our services.

We said Goodbye to of our wonderful staff this year Ray and Julie Lewney and Elaine who served us so well for a number of years.

We have been fortunate to employ Elaine’s daughter Mandy and now have two excellent newcomers Wendy Blantford as administrator and Paul Topping as caretaker.

We have throughout the Covid 19 pandemic ensured that the church has operated safely and appropriately, by keeping up to date with the Church of England and Government guidelines.

We have continued to hold prayer gatherings both online and by email during this difficult time, we believe this has contributed to the church moving in blessings during the lockdown.

Trentham Parish Church Caretaker Report for 2020-2021

It was with great joy that I took up my post as caretaker of Trentham Parish Church in the summer of 2020. I do believe it is one of the greatest blessings of my life to serve in Gods house at Trentham Church. I am very thankful for all the help and support of our previous caretaker, Ray Lewney and in his handing over a very cared for and well looked after church.

I feel really fortunate working alongside Wendy who started her post as Secretary at the same time as me and we have formed a good working relationship. I have felt very supported by Adrian, Derek, David and Iris and other members of the church family of which I am extremely grateful.

There are many routine tasks in my working day and no two days are alike. I have set out a list of the jobs that are ongoing or completed.

This is just a general overview of my work carried out since I started my job in September.

Jobs planned for the Spring/Summer painting vestry, toilets and hall.

I think 3 key elements to my role are, observing, reporting and repairing.

I must say one of the greatest delights of my job is meeting people who come into our grounds and having time to talk to them about our lovely church and our great God. Unfortunately, due to the current situation I have to deny access to the church building.

Deanery synod report - APCM March 2021

There has only been one meeting since the last report. This was held as a Zoom meeting on 8[th] February 2021 and was chaired by Tommy Phillip in the absence of Shaun Morris due to health reasons. The meeting focused on a new initiative from the Diocese of Lichfield, Shaping for Mission, and was presented by Dr Lindsey Hall, Director of vocations at the Diocese.

Shaping for Mission -

“Shaping for Mission is the process across Lichfield Diocese to strengthen our life of discipleship, vocation and evangelism while facing a significant reduction in financial income. We are working together as people of hope to make our mission sustainable in helping fulfil our diocesan vision”.

The impact of Covid has particularly affected the Church in many ways and has exposed the fragility of the finances. There is a need to reduce costs. The aim is to develop the strategic deployment of (lay and ordained) ministers and reduce the number of paid ministry posts over the next three years, working towards reducing the budget by £1.75million by 2023

Shaping for Mission commenced in autumn 2020 with meetings in each archdeaconry for rural/area deans, lay chairs and their assistants. During the autumn, deaneries have formed Shaping for Mission teams and begun the work of reviewing their deanery. The teams are made up of Clergy and Lay Persons.

The first phase of Shaping for Mission is underway with Shaping for Mission teams carrying out reviews of their Deanery.

The second phase will begin from Easter 2021 when deanery teams move into the vision-setting phase. During this phase the teams will work with the wider deanery to ask questions about who and what God calls us to be and what our priorities for mission are.

The third phase will begin later in 2021 when Bishops’ Senior Staff and APCMs (Annual Parochial Church Meetings) will together begin the process of translating the vision into action and aligning resources accordingly.

“My prayer is that through this work we will respond to change faithfully, courageously and be people of hope” – Rt Rev Dr Michael Ipgrave – Bishop of Lichfield

Pastoral Care 2020 – Report for AGM 2021

“My dear friends, let us love one another, because the source of love is God”, says John in his first letter. Pastoral care is the outpouring of that Christian love, not only within our own family or church, but out into the community and beyond. This year the Covid 19 pandemic made that love even more vital, as we sought to bring comfort and support in new ways to our neighbours.

Early in the year, the pastoral team visited people in their own homes and in residential care. They took Holy Communion out to individuals and to Haversham House. Arrangements were made for a Sunday afternoon tea party and to deliver training in listening skills.

The announcement of the first lockdown on March 23[rd] abruptly changed all that. Help was urgently needed for those isolated at home, without family nearby, to do shopping, fetch prescriptions, offer advice and other support. Many were isolated and anxious, appreciating regular phone calls offering reassurance and practical help. Trentham Church was ideally placed to meet these needs: over 40 volunteers from the church family signed up to offer practical or telephone support. Existing contacts with GP surgeries, Helen Taylor of Cuppa Club and Councillor Dan Jellyman meant that many referrals could be acted upon without delay.

Church groups, especially Life Groups, continued to provide pastoral support for their members. Acts of kindness from many of the church family, such as leaving gifts on doorsteps or organising socially distanced VE Day parties, helped to foster a tremendous community spirit. Mothering Sunday flowers were delivered to many doorsteps.

The pastoral team met regularly over Zoom. We had a visit from the owner of “Home Instead” care agency and we plan to support their work in the community. Some of us attended virtual bereavement training. We are aiming to become a Bereavement Friendly church: a bereavement support group will be activated as soon as gatherings are allowed. In November we were able to hold a memorial service in church, for those who had funerals over the past year. Social distancing and masks meant it was very different, but still meaningful for those families.

In the absence of visits to Haversham House, we decided to bless the staff with cakes which were very well received. At Christmas, contact was made also with Trentham House, Lindly House and NG Healthcare. Cards, with a personal inscription where allowed, and Hope magazines were delivered for each resident. Further ways of providing spiritual support, such as access to zoom services, are being explored. Also at Christmas, gift bags were delivered to those known to us who were alone on Christmas Day.

This year, more than ever, we have experienced the need for human contact, to know that others are with us, in spirit if not in person. Pastoral care is the responsibility of everyone in our church and this has helped us to come through a time of hardship, of brokenness and lament; to acknowledge what we have lost and to give us hope and strength for the future.

Worship Music at TPC, 2020-21

Since the start of lockdown in March 2020, the team of musicians has been amazing in its efforts to bring worship to the Church Zoom services on Sundays.

The live worship by Adrian & Esther has been wonderful, while the rest of us are not so brave and have recorded songs and videos in advance. One of our aims in this context has been to support the theme of each service: many thanks to all those who have worked so hard to provide this.

Great work was done in the run up to Christmas to supply songs for four services in a short space of time Other musicians who hadn’t previously been able to participate, met in small teams to video in Church, a feature which was much enjoyed by the online congregations. Special mention to Esther and Philip here for their collaboration in recording many traditional carols, also in Church.

We have held a couple of workshops over Zoom during the year, which have been helpful in supporting the team as a whole. In one of them, Adrian introduced us to his song “I Will Never Forget This Awful Time” (Lamentations 3:20) which has resonated so powerfully during this latest lockdown.

We are probably still around three months away from all restrictions being lifted, but I know that the worship team can’t wait to get together again in Church for live music again!

"Life-group" report (2020 -2021)

I have had the privilege of facilitating our "Life-groups” programme during the past year, taking over from the Reverend John Hall. Life Groups are the best way to connect, grow and feel known within Trentham Parish Church. These small groups meet together to "Share the Love of Jesus" and provide the perfect opportunity to connect with others. They are the place to grow in faith and to go deeper with God and each other. They provide the opportunity to explore your faith and build deep relationships. Our Life Groups are usually between 8 and 12 people and provide an informal opportunity to get together, to worship, to learn and to grow your faith. They continue to provide the opportunity for worship, learning, fellowship and mission as well as opportunities for pastoral support and discipleship.

2020 has been a difficult year. as I know that groups have missed meeting in person but most of the groups have grappled with and come to terms with Zoom. Sadly, we had to postpone the second half of our Growing Leaders course.

Despite the challenges we have successfully created 2 new groups, following the 2020 Alpha course. enabling new people to step into this important leadership role. Including these new members we have welcomed 20 people into our network of now 13 life groups.

The year started with a course based around Holy Habits and have then run courses based on a linked sermon series, firstly looking at the Old testament book of Judges and secondly based on Beauty and Brokenness. We have introduced an afternoon life group meeting over lent and taking a closer look at Psalm 91.

Looking forward into 2021 we hope to revisit Growing Leaders to expand our network of support and Life Group leadership and if you want to be involved in a group or in leading a group please do not hesitate to get in touch. I am also pleased that we will be looking to launch the newly revised Saints Alive course which is all about living life in the Spirit today.

A particular thank you to all the leaders and members during a particularly difficult year. We thank God for all who faithfully lead and participate in the groups.

Reverend Derek Pamment.

Accountants Report

I report on the accounts of the PCC for the year ended 31 December 2020, which are set out on pages 3 to 10.

Respective responsibilities of the charity / PCC and the examiner

As trustees of the charity, the members of the PCC are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. They consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent Examination is needed.

It is our responsibility to :

Basis of this report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity/PCC and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit , and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below..

Independent examiners’ statement

In connection with my examination, no matters have come to my attention:
