## **Truste  es A  nnual Re  por  t:** 

**f or period 01/ 11/ 2020 - 31/ 10/ 202  1** 

## **Enc  ounter Church   I l f rac  o  mb  e 1  1  45236** 

## **Overview:** 

Due to the pandemic and all the restrictions we felt it wasn’t the right time to be recruiting a Pastor 

During this period the church continued to be overseen by the Trustee Leaders Tom Bradley, Rachel Holmes, Paul Parsons, Karly Jackson and Mark Kempson and Miriam Baker as trustee and treasurer. 

## **Sunda  y e  r  v  i ces now res  u  me  d  :** 

## **Sunday Church Services:** 

From 10.30am – 12md for anyone to join in a time of praise worshipping God together. Following the government guidelines for appropriate and necessary protection. This was risk assessed and reviewed monthly. 

## **Life Gr  oup** _**[  mid week s  e  rvi ces]**_ 

These groups usually meet in people’s homes but in order to ensure minimum Covid risks these groups met in the church building to make use of safe areas and kept to smaller group numbers. 

## **Kids Church:** 

Overseen by Lis Harvery-Bryant and a team of police checked volunteers… This covers their time together on a Sunday morning during the church service, and various outings and fun activities. 

## **Youth work:** 

Overseen by Karly Jackson and police checked volunteers, who meet on a Wednesday evening and during Sunday morning service for age specific activities. She also engages with School and other youth activities as invited. 

## **Community work:** 

## **Regen Link is a Befriending service for people 65 and over:** 

This is run by Rachel Holmes with a team of police check and trained volunteers and supports folk in their own homes [if requested by Health 



and Social Seniices] as well

as in large groups. The groups meet on Mondays for Coffee and Thursday afternoons for Activities and fun. 

## **Residential Home Support:** 

A team of Encounter folk visit several Residential homes each month [at their request] to spend time with the residents and provide a church type service and any prayer and ministry to meet Spiritual needs of the folks that live there. 

_Due to re- occurring Covid infections Residential Homes have asked that we do not visit until further notice._ 

## **Food Collection and Donations:** 

This is usually brought to church, collected and delivered each week to the foodbank. 

## **Facilities:** 

We have a team of skilled volunteers who as required maintain and carry out minor repairs at Encounter Church. 

Other more major works are costed and carried out by suitable contractors. 

The building is kept to a high standard with maintenance and improvements carried out year on year, as noted by our Insurers. 

1. In this current year we invested in a more modern digital sound desk.
