Achievements and Performance
1. Introduction
This past year has been an encouraging year for Encounter Church. In many ways we believe God has used it as a turning point for us as we have come out of covid and into a new season. We realise afresh that what could have been a crippling period of time for us during the pandemic has turned into a season of expansion and growth. Emerging from the implications of the pandemic we have had an ongoing sense of focus and direction as we have given ourselves to our mission and vision. As always, this has been supported by all those who are Trustees, on the Leadership Team, Staff, volunteers and wider church family.

Achievements and Performance (continued)
1. Introduction (continued)
This year, as we have continued to give ourselves to helping people ‘Find and Follow Jesus.’ During the past year we have taken time to try and answer three essential questions: How are we doing? What have we learnt? and What is there next for us?
This has been another year where our ability to be agile and flexible has continued to develop, as we have discovered new ways of serving those in the church family, as well as the immediate and wider communities that we represent.
Ultimately, it has been a year where we have been reminded once again of the faithfulness of God. Whether it is increasing numbers being gathered into the life of the church, new initiatives and partnerships being launched, ever improving financial provision for all that we are doing, or an ever-increasing impact in the community and the wider region, we give thanks to God for His goodness, provision and faithfulness.
2. Mission, Vision & Strategy
Our vision continues to combine our charitable objects, based on our Christian faith, the requirements of a growing and vibrant local church, and our desire to serve those around us in the community and beyond in the wider region. Wherever possible we seek to work in collaboration with others agencies in serving those who are vulnerable and in need as we collectively use the resources we have to make a difference in the lives of others.
Charitable Aims & Activities
To advance the Christian Faith through the leadership of a church and related activities in Winchcombe and the surrounding region. To support mission and those in need or distress.
Vision, Missions Beliefs and Values
At Encounter we believe that vision, mission, beliefs and values go hand in hand. Our vision and mission determine the direction and destination of the church, and our beliefs and values determine the culture.
Our Mission (What we exist for)
We want to create a church culture where together we Practice the Way of Jesus.
We want to create a church culture where we collectively help people encounter God: find freedom from the past, purpose for the present and hope for the future
Our Vision (What it will look like)
To be a community that is devoted to Jesus, irrevocably committed to loving and supporting one another, and relentlessly dedicated to serving those in the community and beyond, as we share God’s love and bring hope to those in need.
To be a community where everyone is made to feel welcome, where we recognise that nobody is perfect, but that we celebrate everyone’s significance, as well as believing that anything is possible.
Our Strategy (what will make this happen)
We believe that strategy is essentially the ‘roadmap’ that tells us how to get from where we are to where we want to be.
Our leadership has been focusing primarily on what we know and believe about God, and His purpose for us, as this is the most important dimension of who we are at Encounter. We are committed to helping people explore the spiritual side of life and the implications for the whole of life. We seek to make Encounter a place for people in every stage of their spiritual journey...a place where people can belong even before they believe. For those who are seeking, as well as those who have been part of the church for many years.
Part of our strategy is to see Encounter’s ministry become increasingly innovative, whilst remaining true to our core beliefs, that are ultimately centred in Jesus and His message as found in the Bible.

2. Mission, Vision & Strategy (Continued)
Our Strategy (what will make this happen) (Continued)
During this year, the Pastors, Leadership Team and Trustees have sought to:
-
Hear what God is saying to us
-
Continue to make changes that help us move towards increasing health and productivity
-
Be selective in change and implementation
-
Train and equip staff and volunteers
-
Encourage an enthusiasm that is contagious
3. Spiritual Activity
The primary ways that we determine the spiritual health of Encounter are through our corporate regular worship, our prayer life, belonging, our giving and our serving.
During this past year, we have once again seen growth in all of these key areas.
Our weekly patterns of worship and engagement have enabled us to gather regularly to celebrate, teach and respond. This happens both in the building and online.
We have continued to see the development of our corporate worship, with worship leaders and growing teams who have played a significant role in serving in this key area of ministry.
Encounter Kids has continued to grow, both with our innovative online contributions, as well as in the building. We now have a Kids Worker who heads up this key area. Alongside this has been the development of Encounter Youth, with a team that now lead this for us.
As always, we are so grateful to our volunteer teams that have helped facilitate the different dimensions of our Sunday ministry over the past year.
Along with continued growth on Sundays we have continued to see a growing commitment to Firefall, our corporate prayer meeting. We have also seen increased growth in Encounter Equip, which has become an increasingly interactive and popular arena for discipleship.
Most of what happens here at Encounter is only achievable as a result of the many volunteers who serve in the different areas within the life of Encounter. We are so grateful for each and every one of them. Whether it is serving in the many and varied ministries, the care and maintenance of the buildings and facilities or the pastoral and leadership support that is needed across the board, we are grateful to partner with so many committed members of the church family.
We also live with gratitude for the significant increase in revenue streams that have made much of what we’re attempting to do possible. We have had fruitful gift days, as well as increased regular giving which has meant that we have not only been able to ‘keep the lights on’ but expand the work that we believe that God has called us to do.
As already noted, there have been the ever-increasing numbers joining the church and for the first time, finances that allow us to have reserves that are in line with our reserves policy, allowing for wise and prudent fiscal control. We give thanks that we are a debt free church, as well having buildings and facilities that are being continually upgraded, cared for and invested in.
No 9 Counselling continues to be offered to those in the community and beyond, who want to go on a journey of self-exploration, in the context of a safe environment. It is run by one of the Pastors who is a Person Cantered Integrative Counsellor and Spiritual Director. We hope to develop this arena of ministry as we explore mediation as a dimension of what we might offer in the future.

Achievements and Performance (Continued)
3. Spiritual Activity (Continued)
We have had many other encouragements and areas to reflect on during this past year: Open Space continues to offer space for reflection and contemplation in the ever-increasing busyness of life. Our New Year Awaken Fast 2022 initiative was a significant ‘kick start to the New Year. Wrestling with what it means to operate within a ‘new cultural moment’ increasingly shapes our view of what it means to be church and we are seeing a growing hunger for ‘In-Person’ church. We grow in our desire to wrestle with deeper discipleship in challenging areas and explore what it means to create rich diversity within the life of Encounter.
This past year we have begun to reimagine what it means for Encounter to be associated with a wider stream or network here in the UK. We believe that it is right for us to be connected to a movement where we can be blessed and be a blessing to others by association. As an independent church we have our strengths and weakness and so the journey to be related and connected to something bigger has begun. We believe that this is important for future succession planning, training of future leaders, access to resources for kids, youth and adults and a wider sense of journey together. We will be looking for a movement which shares our theological convictions, our vision and values, as well as outlook on all that we believe the church is called to be.
As we keep moving forwards together, we have an ever-increasing conviction that we exist to bring hope and illumination to those who are in need of hope. But in many ways, we recognise that we are only just ‘scratching the surface’ of what we are called to do, as we see lives being transformed and changed.
We know that we are called to continue growing and expanding and that we will need to increase our giving to invest in future youth provision, other celebrations, reaching others and what we would call ‘kingdom growth.’
4. Community Benefit
We understand that our calling on our church is to go beyond just serving inside the walls of Encounter. We are constantly looking for opportunities to celebrate all that is good in our community and to honour God by serving others around us. Through our commitment to the local community and the wider region we aim to bring hope and help to those around us, as well as expressing the heart of all that matters to us at Encounter.
Over the past year we have continued to invest in our community and regional involvement. Our buildings have been used most days of the week, with many hundreds of people regularly using the facilities, many of whom are not Church members. Once again, we have seen more people pass through our doors and engage in our activities than the year before.

5. Partnerships
Like many churches we recognise the importance of collaboration. We recognise that we can accomplish more through co-operation than competition. Practically working with others, where possible, helps us concentrate more of our resources on impacting the community and region around us and less on maintenance. It allows us to have a national and international engagement. It allows us to share expertise, be developed, and avoid unnecessary duplication.

-

6. Conclusion
In what has been a dynamic and stretching year for us we give thanks for all that has happened in the last year, especially the growth that we have experienced on a number of fronts. We recognise the outstanding contribution of all those who have served in so many different ways. We give thanks for all those who have given their time, their resources and their energy, in allowing us to achieve all that we have been able to achieve.
As we look to the future, we will do so with confidence and we will continue to explore and investigate the many different ways that we believe are before us as we seek to achieve our charitable objectives, step into our mission and fulfil our vision.
Financial Review
The total income for the year was £176,691 and total expenditure on charitable activities amounted to £177,257 The balance on unrestricted funds at the year end was £74,863 and restricted funds £300.
Reserves Policy
The trustees have examined the charity’s requirements for reserves taking account of the main risks to the organisation. It has initially a policy whereby unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets held by the charity should be £30,000. This represents less than 20% of all budgeted expenditure for the year and it remains our three year ambition to increase the reserves to £60,000 if at all possible. The reserves are needed to meet the ongoing working capital requirement of the charity as it continues to grow and the trustees are confident that at this level they would be able to continue the current activities of the charity in the event of a significant drop in funding.
Structure, Governance and Management
Governing Document
Encounter Trust Winchcombe is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission. It is a charitable incorporated organisation and was formed under a Deed of Trust dated 4th June 2014.

-
g) Fund Accounting
-
Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of the Charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the Charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose. Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for the particular areas of the Charity’s work or for specific projects being undertaken by the Charity.
-
h) Expenditure and Irrecoverable VAT
-
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:
-
Expenditure on Charitable activities includes the cost of running the activities of the church and associated projects.
-
Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading.
-
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
- i) Tangible Fixed Assets
Individual fixed assets costing £1,000 or more are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives on the straight line basis as follows:
Asset Annual Category Rate Fixtures and fittings 25% per annum Equipment 25% per annum

- l) Creditors and Provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the Charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

15. Pension Commitments
The Charity operates a defined contribution scheme, the assets of which are held separately from those of the Charity in an independently administered fund. At the balance sheet date unpaid contributions of £38 (2021: £Nil) were due to the fund. They are included in other creditors.
16. Other Financial Commitments
The charity signed a lease in the year for rental of a printer at a cost of £201 per quarter. At 31st August 2022 £3,628 remains outstanding.
17. Prior Year Adjustment
During the year the trustees discovered that donations made to a Go cardless account had not been remitted to the charity's bank accounts and therefore had not been recorded in the charity financial records or accounts. £12,413 related to last year and the comparatives for last years income from donations have been adjusted for this. £11,087 related to periods before 1st September 2020 and have been adjusted by increasing reserves brought forward as at that date.
