THE ANNUAL PARISH MEETING AND ANNUAL PAROCHIAL CHURCH MEETING Minutes of Meetings held on Tuesday, 20 April, 2021 at 7.30pm.

This was a Zoom meeting

Present: Revd Canon Peter Greenwood (Chair) , Revd. Eve Pegler Revd. Tim Heaton, Charlotte Armstrong, Frieda Attwood, Susan Bailey, David and Jane Banham, Pat Brain, Richard Coles, Meriol Cottrell, June Desouches, Teresa Goatham, Carol and Jeffrey Hall, Jean Harding, Linda and Alan Jeffs, Phil Jones, Helen Long, Anne and Colin Marsh, Joan and Ray Palmer, Eileen Piper, Mary and Mike Sargent, Sarah Snook, Allen Walker, Lois and David Wardle, Cate and Tom Wickson.

The Meeting closed at 7.40pm. And was followed immediately by the Annual Parochial Church Meeting.

Annual Parochial Church Meeting

1. Acceptance of the Minutes of the last meeting

The Minutes had been circulated before the meeting. There were no corrections to be made and their acceptance was passed unanimously.

2. Matters Arising from the Minutes

There were no matters arising from the Minutes.

3 . Address by the Revd Canon Peter Greenwood

Peter quoted from a letter sent to the parishes from the Diocesan Board of Finance, “Last year we had a simple message for parishes around the payment of Share which was to ‘pay what you can and don’t worry too much about what you can’t.’ This year the message is a little different reflecting a

4

new reality and a new urgency in our appeal – that if we truly value the Church and believe it has an ongoing, perhaps a reinvigorated and thriving future post Covid, then we must cherish it, serve it and support it.” Peter left us all with this question to consider for ourselves in a broader sense, and not only financially - that if we truly value the Church and believe it has an ongoing, perhaps a reinvigorated and thriving future post Covid, then how are we each going to cherish it, serve it and support it?

4. Elections

Helen Long stood for election to the PCC. Proposed by Tom Wickson and seconded by Charlotte Armstrong.

Cate Wickson volunteered to fill the casual vacancy of 2 years for Deanery Synod Representative. Tom Wickson proposed and Mary Sargent seconded. The meeting unanimously agreed both appointments.

Aims and Purposes

Every Church of England Church has the same aim: “To promote the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical”.

Structure, Governance and Management

Members of the PCC are either elected by the Annual Parochial Church Meeting, (APCM) in accordance with Church Representation Rules, or act ex officio. All Church attendees are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and stand for election to the PCC.

Objectives and Activities

St. Mary’s PCC as trustees have the responsibility of co-operating and working with the incumbent in the ecclesiastical parish of Gillingham, sharing in the whole mission of the church, pastoral, evangelical, social and ecumenical. It also has maintenance responsibilities for the Parish Church of Saint Mary the Virgin and the Vicarage School Room in Queen Street, Gillingham.

Achievements and Performance Church Attendance

St Mary’s Church remained open for public worship throughout 2021 always in accordance with the guidance given by the Church of England and the Government. Sunday attendance grew from approximately 30 in January to 50 at the end of the year with larger congregations at festivals such as Easter and Christmas and other special occasions. The midweek communion began again and numbers at this service vary from 3 to 12.

We celebrated the major festivals including Advent Carol Service, Burning of Ashes on Shrove Tuesday, Ash Wednesday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Easter Eve, School Leavers Service, Remembrance Day, Christingle, Crib Service, Christmas Midnight Mass and Christmas Day.

REVIEW OF THE YEAR 2021

During the year 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2021 the PCC met either in person or on Zoom on six occasions. The Standing Committee met in between as necessary usually to approve risk assessments related to church opening re Covid19. The PCC continued using two committees ‘Build’ which looks after finance, housekeeping and buildings and ‘Grow’ which looks after the ministry, worship and mission of the church. The Annual Parish and Annual Parochial Church Meetings were held via Zoom on 20 April 2021.

When Cafes were allowed to open the ‘Pop-Up’ cafe and Loose Goods shop began again in the Vicarage School Room with the new name Eden. This has continued to offer hospitality, enable fellowship, and seeks to offer a service to the local community to recycle and refill comestibles without unnecessary packaging. It provides a drop off point for Terracycle Recycling. These activities flow from the fifth mark of mission “To strive to safeguard the integrity of creation and sustain and renew the life of the earth”. Lack of bookings in the Vicarage School Room created the space to open more regularly and there are four sessions each week. This has provided a space to make deeper connections both with members of the church and with those from the wider community. This continues to develop with a monthly games afternoon, creative workshops, tea dance and other groups planned.

The méditation group continued to meet weekly. The walking in faith group restarted, covering mostly local walks to avoid car sharing or public transport and joined in with the towns walking festival. During Lent there were ‘Do it yourself’ walks with a destination given and something to be collected on a Lenten theme for all who participated. Where possible clergy and parishioners continued involvement in the schools, either with online collective worship or in person and representatives of the church continuing to be on the governing board. The Open the Book team were all set to begin in school again when the Omicron variant of Covid19 postponed this and a small team have continued to have an input by reading and videoing stories online at Easter and Christmas.

The informal service on the first Sunday in St Mary’ School and Messy Church have not yet restarted due to pressure on space in relation to Covid19 precautions. We have managed to keep in touch with families informally and through the festival services. Free Breakfast Friday started again and has seen a growing number of children and families come together to eat lots of toast and cereal before school. It provides a great space to chat as well as eat!

Our annual stewardship appeal took place on Passion Sunday and we joined in with the Diocesan Generous Giving Campaign in the autumn.

The PCC continues to manage the maintenance of the church. The Fabric Report gives more detail below. The safety checks and maintenance were continued, e.g. lightening conductor, fire extinguishers, gas safety checks.

The PCC reaffirmed ‘in-full’ the Church of England’s Safeguarding Policy

The church continues to hold a Bronze eco award and is hoping to work for silver.

FINANCE REPORT SUMMARY

RESERVES POLICY

It is PCC policy to maintain a balance of unrestricted funds (if possible) that equates to at least two months unrestricted payments in order to cover emergency situations that may arise from time to time.

It is also our policy to make every effort to pay the Parish Share to the Diocese in full.

CLERGY REPORT

“If then there is any encouragement in Christ, any consolation from love, any sharing in the Spirit, any compassion and sympathy, make my joy complete: be of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility regard others as better than yourselves. Let each of you look not to your own interests, but to the interests of others. Let the same mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus…” St Paul’s letter to the Philippians 2.1-5

In the clergy report for 2020 and the address at our last APCM in April 2021, we repeated our vision, Open to God and open to Gillingham, and committed ourselves once again to the patience, persistence, endurance, flexibility and kindness that you have exhibited to keep faith during a time of pandemic.

The story for 2021 has been similar. We have not this year been locked down from meeting together for public worship. Yet we continued with the disciplines of face coverings, social distancing and restricted public worship because, in the words of St Paul from his letter to the Philippians, we have regarded others as better than ourselves.

The numbers attending public worship have grown as the situation has improved and public confidence has grown. At the beginning of the year the average number attending public worship on a Sunday morning was about 30; by the end of the year that number had grown to about 50; with many more attending Easter and Christmas services. It was a joy when music and singing were reintroduced to worship. Our thanks go to our organist, Dr Daniel Cummins, and our choir too.

As a clergy team we said au revoir to the Revd Tim Heaton who went to help in the Shaftesbury benefice. It was au revoir and we look forward to welcoming Tim back to the benefice again when the vacancy at Motcombe is filled. (We offer our congratulations to Tim again on his appointment in February this year to the role of Rural Dean of the Blackmore Vale. We are delighted to see his gifts used in this way.)

The ministry of the whole church continued to be curtailed by the pandemic. Yet you persevered to find new ways to welcome and reach out. Fundraising for the church was hit by the loss of bookings in the Vicarage Schoolroom (VSR). You

10

married these tasks of welcome, reaching out and fundraising by opening the VSR to the Eden loose goods and cafe on four occasions through the week. This has become a lovely place of inclusion, welcome and Christian hospitality in these difficult days.

I would like to thank my clergy colleagues, stipendiary and self-supporting, full time, part time, and retired, and the lay officers of the church. Particularly this year Tom Wickson who steps down after seven years as church warden, and Mike Sargent who volunteered to take on the role of honorary treasurer to the church PCC. Tom has worked very diligently, with good humour and grace as church warden. Happy retirement! There is a vacancy for a new churchwarden… Mike has very ably filled the treasurer gap highlighted last year at our APCM. Thanks to the Revd Tim Heaton for keeping the books ticking over during that gap. Thank you to Mrs Carole Blackmore who so ably runs our church office. Thank you to you all who fill named and unnamed roles in the life of your church.

In conclusion I would refer you to the minute of the report of the clergy address at last year’s meeting, and reiterate the question the Diocesan Board of Finance gave us all in April 2021, “if we truly value the Church and believe it has an ongoing, perhaps a reinvigorated and thriving future post Covid, then how are we each going to cherish it, serve it and support it?”

The Reverend Canon Peter Greenwood

FABRIC REPORT

The last year has seen the slow and phased return towards normal church life following the Covid-19 pandemic. Although things are not completely as they were before March 2020, great strides back to the regular pattern of our activities have been made.

At each step, following the guidance offered by the C of E, risks have been assessed and modifications to our work have been kept in place to ensure safe use of the building by all visitors and parishioners – as far as has been possible.

A major difficulty has been getting the contractor who quoted successfully, before the pandemic, for some work resulting from the Quinquennial inspection to fix a date to carry out the jobs. This remains the case at the time of writing and we shall shortly be suggesting to them that such a time has elapsed that we should forget the agreement between us and re-advertise the work. The key job will be the work on the east corner of the north porch, which has some loose masonry which is allowing damp into the area at the top of the stairs to the north parvise.

Meanwhile, we have undertaken some self-help work to tidy up the south porch, which is the main entry point for those coming to services and for visitors. I express thanks to the Revd Allen Walker especially for his help with this job through the summer of 2021.

Following the completion of a condition report on the Saxon Cross fragment which has been kept for many years at the west end of the south aisle of the church, this has gone on loan for a period of five years to the Gillingham Museum, where it may

11

be seen more clearly and is kept under better environmental conditions. The condition survey – the final requirement of the Faculty under which this work was carried out – was paid for by the History Society. A temporary interpretation board has been placed where the stone used to be, to advise visitors of its whereabouts and tell a little of its long and interesting story. Thanks are due to Dr John Shephard of the Gillingham Local History Society for his work on this whole scheme.

As the pandemic has loosened its grip on us, the Vicarage School Room (church hall) has been used more frequently, and is being converted on Wednesday afternoons, on Thursday and Friday mornings, into Eden Café and Loose Good Shop – with Terracycling facilities. To help make the hall itself, and the Stable Room, more practically useful and welcoming, we decided to complete the replacement of the old strip lights with modern, energy-efficient LEDs. While the contractors were on site, they added some extra electric sockets and replaced the lights in the Parish Office. This work was carried out in January 2022.

While the maintenance of the fabric of St Mary’s is an on-going responsibility, I feel that we can look forward to the future with confidence.

Tom Wickson (Churchwarden)

BLACKMORE VALE DEANERY

To be tabled at the meeting.

PARISH OFFICE

Mrs Carole Blackmore has continued to work tirelessly throughout the year. She is completely amazing! Looking after the administration of the whole benefice we also recognize and are grateful for the pastoral element of her role in the office in listening to and dealing with parishioners queries and supporting the clergy with her good humour and efficiency.

The Vicarage School Room (VSR)

The lockdowns and pandemic restrictions has limited the bookings in the VSR during the year. Groups that could be accommodated according to the safety advice given have gradually begin to meet and bookings began to increase during the latter end of the year.

Thanks to Trish Down our cleaner, who has continued to keep the church and the VSR clean throughout the year.

Diocese of Salisbury

The Parish Church of Saint Mary the Virgin

Gillingham, Dorset

‘Open to God, Open to Gillingham’

Statement of Accounts for the year ending 31[st] December 2021 Registered Charity Number 1158272

Overview of Finances as of 31[st] December 2021

Another year where Covid has taken a financial hit on our church and many a charity. Saint Mary the Virgin Church, Gillingham also had to contend with the loss of their Treasurers at the end of 2020 with the Revd. Tim Heaton stepping into the breach to keep finances on an even keel and to add his financial skills to our accounting procedures. Tim handed over to me at the end of May. So many thanks to their previous efforts.

At the outset finances, to me, looked precarious with a potential deficit of some £18,000. As part of the Generous Giving Campaign promoted by diocese an appeal was made in church and a letter sent to everybody on the Electoral Roll. Seven people responded by increasing their standing orders amounting to an increase of annual giving of £1,320. A few donations were also received roughly equivalent to the given example of an annual cost of a cup of coffee per person per week. However, we were also blessed with £1,000 legacy and, out of the blue, two most generous donations amounting to £10,000. This together with our Stewardship Recorder bringing forward our Gift Aid claims as far as is possible (a once only option netting approximately £9,500 extra for 2021) allowed us to end the year with a surplus of £1,639.87 as opposed to that dreaded deficit mentioned above.

Despite the pandemic, fundraising held up surprisingly well through an initial and very successful Plant Sale and subsequently through significant donations from the Pioneering Project driven by the Revd. Eve Pegler of the Eden Café/Eco Shop which is beginning to look a permanent feature. The latter is a way to enjoy good company and easy for everybody to support our finances which, if it continues as now, is estimated to bring in over £11,000 in 2022 - so why not drop in for coffee and cake and consider buying some of the loose goods, a greetings card or a recycled book or jigsaw.

However, make no mistake, a long-term financial plan is very much required. We are fortunate that our predecessors left us with strong reserves but, if we continue as we are now, those reserves will be depleted by 2025. Without those significant unexpected donations, we are living beyond our means!

The Diocese tell us that the average giving per person across the diocese is £10 per week; for us it is £5.94 per week – we respond well to appeals but we also need to keep our own ship afloat? We also hear much in the press of the misunderstanding of the Parish Share – it is NOT simply a large gift for diocese to do with as they like; it pays for clergy stipends, pensions, housing and support. Of the total diocesan income (which is more than Parish Share) 88% comes back to the parishes in kind. Is it any wonder that if parishes do not pay their Share that some diocese cut clergy numbers! To put that into context the current share requires a payment to diocese of approximately £454 p.a. per person counted as a church member (or, put another way, £8.74 per person per week just to pay the share) – we may not all be able to give that much but are you giving what you can?

Despite this gloomy summary, the PCC will undertake long term planning to ensure we have a stable financial environment to take us forward to 2030 and beyond.
