The address for correspondence is All Saints Church Office, Moseley Street, Ripley, Derbyshire, DE5 3DA (Telephone 01773 570011).

Structure, governance and management

All Saints’ Parochial Church Council (PCC) is a corporate body established by the Church of England and operates under the Parochial Church Council Powers Measure. The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. All church attendees are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and stand for election to the PCC.

The full PCC met nine times in the year, 3 times in person and 6 times over Zoom videoconferencing due to restrictions present during the Covid-19 pandemic. This included two extraordinary meetings.

During 2021 the PCC considered the request from the diocese made to Revd John Wigram that he should become Priest in Charge of the neighbouring benefice of Swanwick and Pentrich, while also remaining Vicar of Ripley. Careful consideration and concern was shown, and when in due course John accepted this role the PCC and church as a whole were active in supporting him and preparing for this change.

Aim and purposes

The PCC has the responsibility of cooperating with the incumbent, the Reverend John Wigram, in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. The PCC is also specifically responsible for the maintenance of All Saints Church, Church Street, Ripley and the old Police Station site, in Moseley Street. The All Saints vision is to be a church that is ‘transforming lives and communities through the love of Jesus’.

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 include scripture and teaching, prayer, music and sacrament, and aim to help people put faith into practice. The Covid pandemic required development of online worship services which have expanded the number of people able to worship with us.

We aim to enable everyone to live out their faith as part of our parish community through:

An important part of facilitating this work is the maintenance of the fabric of the Church of All Saints.

Church Attendance

All are welcome to attend our regular services. Since the Covid pandemic we have developed online services, and now attendance is both in-church and online. Starting at Easter were able to gather in church again, and have had gradually increasing physical attendance. By the end of the year our numbers in church were around 45 and online about 15 each Sunday, with more people catching up online later in the week. There were fluctuations depending on Covid regulations and local infection levels. Festival services were in church as well as online, and we held outdoor services for Remembrance Sunday and our Christmas Carol and Crib services, with encouraging attendance, particularly at Remembrance.

In 2021 there were 2 weddings and 1 renewal of wedding vows, 11 baptisms and 2 thanksgiving services for children. We held 17 funerals in church, 1 funeral at a graveside, 7 at the crematorium and no burials of ashes. We have seen a drop in requests for church and minister-led funerals during Covid.

Electoral Roll

At the time of the Annual meeting reviewing 2021 (April 2022), there were 103 people on the electoral roll, 40 of whom are not resident in the parish. Since the last APCM (June 2021), 1 person was added to the electoral roll.

Worship and prayer

At the start of the year services were only online, livestreamed from the Vicarage using Facebook Live. At Easter we began services in church again, while also producing pre-recorded services online for Facebook and YouTube. From September we began livestreaming the services in church on Facebook so that all were involved in the same act of worship, a recording of which was later uploaded to YouTube. We have a single morning service each Sunday at 10am, with varying style and content. Some weeks a more formal order of service is followed and hymns are sung, other weeks services are less formal with more contemporary music, and including our “Young Church” group for children during the service. This way our congregation to have a choice of online or in-building worship, and experience a range of worship styles. Our Young Church and ‘Jam!’ monthly Saturday service for families met by Zoom initially, then in person after the summer, with sessions outside for Jam!, with an encouraging mix of old & new people.

South East Derbyshire Deanery Synod

Our church has an allocation of four places on the deanery synod, and those who take that role also become part of the All Saints PCC. Through 2021 only 3 of those places were filled. The deanery synod continued to hold broadly quarterly meetings of clergy and lay people appointed from parishes within the deanery, mostly online except later in the year. This link with the deanery has been a valuable connection between the parish and the wider structures of the church.

Home Groups, Residential Home Services and Pastoral Care

All church members are encouraged to consider being part of a Home Group, although during the Covid pandemic groups were not able to meet in the usual way. The church also has other less structured groups. These groups are for encouragement and support, both practical and pastoral, for study of the Bible, prayer and enabling of Christian living.

Pastoral care happens both formally and informally in the church, with pastoral coordinators and many people involved in supporting others. During the pandemic a team of people have ensure that vulnerable or potentially lonely people have contact from a church person on a regular basis. At Christmas we were able to visit 3 care homes for carols, having missed our previous regular visits to 4 homes that used to happen pre-pandemic.

Mission Giving

The church regularly supports four charities from its annual income, as chosen by the PCC: Links International, SAT-7, Betel and Valley CIDS. Speakers from the charities spoke by recordings in our Sunday services through the year. We also ran specific appeals through the year for current needs around the world, with money being directed through Tearfund.

The Church Building

As lockdown eased during the year the church was able to be used for more of its regular purposes. Funerals were the only services allowed at the start of the year, but by Easter we were able to open up for Sunday services. By May we were able to begin to conduct baptisms again, and by July to conduct weddings. In September our Open Door Friday community café restarts, and towards the end of the year our Squeals on Wheels toddler group was able to restart. At each stage the use of the building and procedures for these different services and events were assessed and risk assessments completed, to ensure we were complying with current Covid guidelines that everyone could remain as safe as possible. Use of the church by outside organisations for occasional or regular meetings was also enabled, so that they could take advantage of the extra social distancing available in a bigger space.

During the year the church was kept in good repair, with regular inspections during times of long term closure, and small problems being picked up and dealt with. The Quinquenial inspection carried out at the end of 2020 did not report any major problems, and works required and recommended in it were gradually carried out during the year, as restrictions allowed. Further information about work on the church buildings can be found in the Churchwardens’ report in the Appendix (p 14).

The gardening and flower teams tended the outside and beautified the inside of the church as much as restrictions allowed throughout the year, with care and consideration.

The church continued to be a hub for various kinds of recycling, as part of our ‘Rubbish Campaign’, although somewhat limited by Covid travel restrictions at times. This encouraged and enabled people from the church and community to be considerate in their use of resources and recycle less usual household waste and items.

Activities and events, January – December 2021

We continued to work with 5 areas to enable us to focus and prioritise our ministry in 2021, Prayer and Presence (our worship of God), Children and Families (investing in children and family life), Town Connections (engaging with the wider community), Building the Body (growing in faith and mutual care) and Building the Beacon (developing facilities to enable our ministries, planning for building on the land adjacent to the church). Despite many of our planned activities being hampered or curtailed by the pandemic throughout the year, life and growth in the church continued. The following events and activities are a flavour of the year:

January on: Sunday services being were livestreamed, Jam! and Young Church were meeting over Zoom. After the Sunday services Zoom ‘Coffee and Chat’ meetings were started to keep people in contact.

End Jan until Easter: Zoom Alpha Course – the group continued to meet long after the course ended.

Start April: Good Friday and Easter services in church – first public worship since March 2020. Regular Sunday 10am services both in church and online from soon after, with online services recorded Saturday.

Safeguarding

Safeguarding of children and vulnerable adults is a vital part of all that we do in All Saints. We follow the framework laid down by the Church of England and Derby Diocese. In March 2022 the PCC amended and approved the All Saints Safeguarding Policy (a copy of which is on the notice board by the serving hatch). We have 2 Parish Safeguarding Officers, Maureen Graham and Jenny Roberts, who have both completed the Safeguarding Leadership Training in 2021.

In 2021 there were around 44 people in the church whose ministry roles required them to gain DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service ) clearance. The period before renewal is required for these has recently decreased from 5 years to 3 years, so this is an ongoing process at the moment, as many need renewing. Leaders of Squeals, Open Door, Jam! and the Ministry Team have completed Safeguarding Leadership courses during 2022. The Safeguarding Dashboard Audit continues to be under review and further Safeguarding Training will be undertaken in 2022.

All Involved

All Saints is very blessed to have so many people from within its community who have given generously towards the ministry of the church by using their time and gifts, their energy and resources, and often their ingenuity in serving God and others through the past year. We are very grateful to all who work hard to make All Saints the loving and lively community that it is, whether their contribution is visible or more hidden. The Covid-19 pandemic continued to bring us particular challenges during 2021, but that resulted in particular care and thoughtfulness being shown.

We aim to be a church community which values and enables all those with whom we are in contact, near and far. We look to grow in our faith together, and in our ability to do the things that God calls us to do, and to be who he wants us to be, even in uncertain times.

Financial Review – Year ended 31[st] December 2021

When compared to last year there was a drop of £4,393 (4.7%) in our church income. What in the previous year had been a deficit of £1,912 became a deficit of £3,466. (This figure is our income minus our expenditure over the year). As usual this bottom line figure hides the detail; in this case that whilst restricted funds increased by £1,003, our unrestricted funds fell by £4,469.

Unrestricted planned giving went down by 5.3% or £3,740 to £67,502. (This followed a rise of 3.4% or £2,354 to £71,242 in the previous year). Total unrestricted giving income (including collections) fell by 4.3% or £3,112.

Expenditure relating to the work of the church went down £1,130 to £76,595, despite the need to spend £3,888 on changes to the clock mechanism during the year. This cost was offset by grants from Ripley Town Council (£500) and £648 from the Listed Places of Work Grant Scheme which offset the VAT element of the repair bill.

Mission Giving was maintained at 10% of giving income. It addition it will be noted from the accounts that there was a range of other charitable giving by church members during the year. Total giving under this heading amounted to £9,382.

The restricted funds are detailed on page 13 of the financial statements. The balance in the restricted Fabric Fund fell during the year to zero. This was due to an intentional policy to spend from restricted funds in order to maintain a higher level of unrestricted funds. The Building/Police Station Fund stood at £408,429, up from £405,134 in 2020. The Youth Worker Fund balance was £12,165.

The PCC had unrestricted "free reserves" of £52,006 which was down from £56,475 last year and £62,267 the previous year. Included in this sum is an amount of £21,327 designated to the Fabric Fund and £1,767 to the Community Fund.

Reserves Policy

The PCC considers the free reserves being held are adequate for the general operational running of the church. The reserves held for the Old Police Station Fund combined with the Property (Building) Fund are for the proposed future major building works on the former police station site adjacent to the church.

Churchwardens’ Report for the Year 2021

2021 was an interesting year. The early part was mainly devoted to managing the prevailing Covid restrictions that were in place, particularly with regard to social distancing and hygiene measures. The restrictions in place brought challenges to us with regard to buildings maintenance and repairs. As a result it was not until late in the year that we progressed the on-going situation with regard to the defective smoke detector. Subsequently it has emerged that the control panel is the problem and we hope to rectify this with a new panel over the next month or so.

As mentioned in the Annual Report, the Quinquennial Inspection was completed in late 2020 and the wardens are working on the matters raised in that report. The report contained a list of 16 items requiring urgent action either immediately or within 12 months. 4 of these have been done, but a number of those outstanding relate to external works and it has proved difficult to source the necessary and qualified contractors to do this work. This covers roof work, guttering, lead flashing etc. We are hopeful however that these can be resolved during this summer as normality returns.

Whilst we have been operating with a reduced number of ‘duty wardens’, this has been offset with there being only 1 service on a Sunday Morning instead of the 2 prior to the pandemic. However we are very grateful for the continued support and flexibility of the current team and are hopeful of expanding this over the coming months. It is also intended to hold a ‘training session’ later in the year for both existing and new duty wardens.

At the APCM, there will be a short visual presentation of ‘A Year in the life of the Church’ which will give some background as to what goes on behind the scenes.
