ua r"I "f EMMANUEL CHURCH HASTINGS Our mission and vision The PCC has the responsibility of co-operating with the incumbent, the Revd Martin Lane, in promoting the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. At Emmanuel, we have stated our mission as follows.. Our mission is to help people of our town and local commLtnity become fully committed followers of Jesus. We have summarised our vision for Emmanuel in the following statement.. Imagine a church that's flooding its loca I community with the light of the gospel and making a visible difference to the lives of all kinds of people.. that's what we long to see at Emmanuel Church, on the West Hill of Hasting5, to the glory of God. As we look to the future, we envision a growing and dynamic, gospel-hearted church, full of men, women, and children who find their identity in Christ and rejoice in living for him. It's a church with multiple, vibrant gospel ministries for all ages with trained and trustworthy leaders; where faithful bible teaching isvalued and expected, where thegospel is proclaimed with urgency and purpose. It's a church of disciple-making disciples,. where members are experiencing the life-changing power of the gospel and helping others to experience it too. It's an others-focused church where we cherish one another in Christ,. a fam ily of believers who think of one another before themselves and gladly accept sacrifice for each other's sake,. where we love one another in practical ways, and everyone gives and receives. It's a church in which relationships are loyal, supportive, and accountable,. where names are remembered and absence is noticed,. where we join together to laugh and cry, challenge and encourage, pray and praise. It's an outward-looking church that works for the good of our local community and seeks the lost with the gospel of grace in creative and relevant ways; a place where the needy find help, the broken find heaSing, the lonely find friendship, and all hear the offer of new life in Christ. It's a church that's committed to supporting other gospel ministries, in the UK and overseas, by giving its money and sending its people to serve in various ways. This is our dream. We believe, under God, it will soon be reality, and we invite you to be part of it. What we planned to do to achieve our mission Over the past year, we have sought to: enable as many people as possible to pa rticipate in the life of our church,. reach out to non-believers; teach, baptise and nurture new and existing believers; provide care and support for those in need,. give financial support to other Christian organisations; maintain the fabric of the church building. What we achieved Enabling participation in the life of our church We welcome visitors from both inside and outside the parish.
Visitors attend by personal choice, and we are delighted to welcome people of all backgrounds to participate in the life of the church. Voluntary attendance of our church services is a major demonstration of the public benefit of our activities. We love to welcome families to the church and run a Sunday Club and supervised Crèche every Sunday morning during the service. The music group continues to lead our congregational singing and introduce new songs. 2024 marked the 150th anniversary of the consecration of the Emmanuel church building. We marked the anniversary with a special celebratory service and meal, which was open to all. We held a Church Lunch and Harvest Lunch after the Sunday service during the year, as well as a Summer Picnic, to which all were welcome. We welcome newcomers to the church at our Welcome Tea, which is an opportunity to ask questions and find out more about church life. As at the 31 December 2024 there were 73 people on the church electoral roll, 52 of whom were not resident within the parish, two names were added during 2024 and one was removed through death. The average total weekly attendance at services in the building during October was 86, of which, on average, 68 were adults and 18 were children. We provide regular training for all who are involved in our ministries, including training for preachers, home group leaders, youth and children's ministry leaders and helpers, and the music m inistry team. We continue to take safeguarding very seriously and follow the guidance set out in various documents including.. Care and Protectlon of Children12002, 2009}, Protecting God's Children12010) and Safer Recruitment {20131, and the Parish Safeguarding Handbook120181. We continue to carry out Disc105ure and Barring Service IDBSI checks for all new volunteers who are then invited to join the DBS Update Service, thus obviating the need for three-yearly renewals. We have completed the diocesan safeguarding programme, Simple Quality Protects Level One, an audit tool aimed at helping all parishes to achieve the highest possible Safeguarding standards. Safeguarding is a sta nding item at PCC meetings and the channel through which the PCC is kept up to date on current Issues. All Church members involved with Children's Work have completed a DBS dlsclosure and are part of the DBS Update Service. We are grateful to Rowena Pelling for serving as the Parish Safeguarding Off icer. The PCC has adopted the Principles for Commending Ministry set out by the Bishop of Ebbsfleet to commend complementarian evangelical ministry and to enable healthy m inistry and leadersh ip. We did not hold any weddings at Emmanuel during 2024. Two funeral services were held in the church building and we hosted two memorial services. Reaching out to non-believers Our Sunday seNices are planned with non-christian visitors in m ind with the intention of making participation as easy as possible. All visitors are welcomed at the door by our team of stewards. Seasonal services such as Carols by Candlelight and our Christingle Service are particularly well attended. We hold All-Together services on Christmas Day and Easter Sunday, where all ages come together to celebrate the good news of Jesus, birth, death, and resurrection. We also hold Guest Services th roughout the year which have a particular evangelistic focus. In 2024, we hosted an evangelistic event for the whole church with a meal and live music, wh ich was open to al I: A Big Night In. It included a short presentation of the gospel by a guest speaker and was well attended. We also held a Flower Festivol to mark the 150 annlver5ary of the church, wlth flower displays on the theme of 'Gospel Misslon,, which was open to the local community. Our toddler play group, Buttons, meets on Friday mornings and continues to be very well popular with families from the local community. Our intention is that it is a distinctively Christian toddler group in which the children lèarn about Jesus through hearing stories from the Bible. reinforced through craft activities and si nging Christian songs, along with other popular pre-school Songs. We provide craft activities and toys to play with. and a safe and fun environment for all who come along. Each year we hold a Buttons Christmas Special and Buttons Easterspecial with a particular focus on evangelism. The group uses resources produced by Faith in Kids.
Once again, we were able to run the Christianity Explored course "ThES COIITS& kas op.tsned my eyos during the year, for those wishing to find out more about the l TrvoLild l 00% Icii(P tkis coiip'se cigriin. Christian faith. This is an informal and enjoyable courseth3tenables Christianity Explored people to answer three important questions from Mark's Gospel: Who is Jesus? Why did he come? What does it mean to follow him? It explores clearly and faithfully the good news of Jesus that is at the heart of our church life. Teachingj baptising and nurturing new and existing believers Our main teaching happens during our Sunday services when we come together around God's word, the Bible. This year we have studied Genesis 1-3, the second half of I Samuel, Luke 8-9, Romans 12, 2 Corinthians 4-5 and 2 Thessalonians. During the week, members of the church meet in Home Groups. Every member of the church is encouraged to join a home group. These groups have continued to meet -groups throughout the year, during daytimes and evenings, providing further opportunities for small groupsto studythe Bible and pray together. We meet in small groups to support and encourage each other as we seek to grow in Christian maturity. The groups contain a mixture of new and existing bel levers. We provide one-to-one Bible studies for those who are hungry to study the Bible, either as interested seekers or to grow as disciples of Jesus, Once a month, through our Church Prayermeetings, we set aside a Tuesday evening to come togetheras a church familyto prayforthe mission of the church,for individuals in thechurch who are particularly in need of prayer, and for missionary organisations that we support. The Women@Emmanuel ministry has organlsed a Women's Book Group and an evangelistic Christmos Craft Evening with a short talk about Jesus. A group of women from the church attended the Southern Women's Convention in Crowborough. The Men@Emmonuel ministry draws men together to encourage one another as we seek to l ive for Christ at home, with friends, and in the workplace. This often involves food, whether a cooked meal, a takeaway or a fried breakfast. This year we took a group of men to the Kentmen's Convention in Sevenoaks. An encouraging number of church families attended the SGPAnnuol Conference and Bible by the Beach, where there was Bible teaching forall age5 in a fun environment. A supervised Creche provides age-appropriate Bible teaching and activities for pre-schoolers during our Sunday services. sunday Club has continued strongly; we use 114ustord Seeds material to explore the Bible together as well as playing games, singing and doing crafts, and had a good num ber of regular attendees. This year the ch ildren have followed a series called 'Jesus beyond the mangerf and studies in the books of Genesis, Joshua, Judges, 1&2 Samuel, Mark, Luke, John, and Acts, as well as a Christmas series in Isaiah. A Youth Bible Study group has continued successfully for those in Year 7 and upwards. The young people have studied the book of l Thessalonians, a series on spiritual ha bits, an overview of Old Testament History, a series on The Kingdom of David followed by an overview of Esther, Ezra, and Nehemiah, and a series on Ilving as a Christian. We were able to hold an Easter Partyfor primary school age children, a Summer Holiday Club, and a Light Party as a Christian alternative to Halloween - all of which were well attended by church children and their friends. chiii"chprayer WOMEN @EMMANUEL MEN EMMANUEL Some of our young people attended Woolhampton 3 and Orwell 4 CYFA Ventures in the summer of 2024, providing Bible teaching, friendships and fun activities for them and their friends. We held two adult baptisms and one infant baptism during the course of the year.
Providing care and supportfor those in need Pastoral care and support for members of the church is provided mainly through our home groups. Our vicar, and members of the congregation, also regularly visit the sick among our congregation, either at home or in hospital, to talk, read the Bible and pray. He also provide5 pastoral support forthose who have been bereaved both in the church and in the parish. Donations of food and household items to support the work of Family Support Work, a Sussex based charity providing practical support to families i n crisis in our town, are now collected from the church building once a month. Giving financial support to other Christian organisations In 2024 we supported three Christian organisations through f inancial giving and regular prayer. They are Bornabas Fund, Cros51inks and Speak Life. Barnabt75 Fund acts on behalf of the persecuted Church, to be their voice making their needs known to Christians around the world and the injustice of their persecution known to governments and international bodies. They send financial support to projects which help Christians where they suffer discrimination, oppression and persecution as consequence of their faith. The projects aim to strengthen Christian individuals, churches and their communities by providing material and spiritual support in response to needs identified by local Christian leaders. The majority of aid goes to Christians living In Muslim environments. Crosslink5 is an international mission society with its roots in the Bible and works principally within the worldwide Anglican Communlon. Thelr prime focus is the proclamatlon and teaching of God's word. They are enthusiasts for creative worldwide mission. Their slogan Is 'God's word to God's world,. We have a particular link with a missionary family in the Czech Republic and a church in south Africa. Speak Life is a UK-wide evangelistic ministry which exists to preach the gospel, train Christians in evangelism and resource the church for its mission to the world. Maintaining the fabric of the church bullding During 2024, necessary maintenance has been carried out and the buildings kept In good repair, We are verygrateful to the volunteers who give time to clean the church buildi ng and to look after the church halls and gardens.
