The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules.  All those who attend Church services are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and stand for election to the PCC. 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

Holy Trinity PCC has the responsibility of co-operating with the Incumbent, the Revd Jim Taylor, in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the Church – pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. 

## **CHARITABLE OBJECTIVES;** 

2022 provided the PCC with the opportunity to return to a regular routine but recognising that a return to “normal” was a way off as the consequences of the pandemic and lockdowns continued to have impacts upon church life, especially upon finance and services. However with the uncertainty and the need to rebuild there have been many positive opportunities for the PCC to consider and implement. Above all 2022 has shown us that our God is not uncertain or inconsistent and he has remained faithful and steadfast to His Church and we have been richly provided for both practically and spiritually, as we continue to rebuild upon old and new foundations to ensure the work of the church can not only survive but thrive in the years to come in this area of Bradford that God has chosen for us to serve in. 

This report documents some of the highlights of the year and the PCC’s involvement in the leading and directing of the church’s stated aim of _PROMOTING IN THE ECCLESIASTICAL PARISH THE WHOLE MISSION OF THE CHURCH._ 

The PCC met 6 times in 2022.

Attendance continues to grow since the lockdowns and we are regularly having new people join us at both Sunday services. 

The 9.30am service and Wednesday are continuing to prove to be consistent with the 9.30am being almost back at 2019 levels of attendance with a solid community formed even as new people attend. 

2022 saw growth for the 11am service which was the hardest hit during the pandemic and the early part of 2023 suggest the trend is continuing to increase. Challenges remain in this service in terms of forming community and discipleship but the refresh of Home Groups, review of children’s church and Worship (not to mention the re-introduction of refreshments after the services!!) are all helping to make headway with these issues. 2023 will see the introduction of more social and discipleship events that will help that congregation in particular to form deeper bonds and opportunities for growth in their discipleship walk.

Life services continue to be ever popular at Holy Trinity with most services seeing an increase in numbers. The life services are an important part of church life, not only for the incomes they bring in but most importantly they are a valuable opportunity to connect with the wider community, for us to build long term relationships and give us an opportunity to serve those in our communities who we may not see in church services. We are blessed with some fantastic volunteer teams who serve in these ministries and the PCC offers its sincere thanks and gratitude for the work they do.
