Review of the Year I like to think of St Andre￿5 as a gloriou5 opening at the centre of Rugby. A non-utilitarian space, visible, open and accessible to all; a place that, precisely because ivs not trying to sell anything, can help people see our town afresh; a place, that, like a lake in the mountains. can refiect and reveal everything around it in new and unexperted ways. Okay. l admit this is a bit of a flight o* fancy. Hard-nosed realtty has to come in. Like any human institution, we have bills and salaries to pay (including mine!). so this building has to pay tts wayond justify its existence. But we must never lose sight of the gratuttOU5 glory of this and 50 many other grèat church building5: far bigger and more beautiful than they need be, they point to the mystery of God, who is bigger and more beautiful still. So perhaps our task a5 Stewards of this great building is chiefft to keep it aswell and as well-known as we can: its threshold smooth artd its doors open, ready for our fellows citszens whenever they need it: Enla the site of your tent. and le e curtains of your habitstion be stretched o do not hold back. Sengthen your corils and st ngthen your stske5. Review ofthe Year. The year of Our Lord 2025 saw St AndreW5 continuing to flourish as a community of worship. serYic< welcome an outreach.

Sadly. the year saw the deaths of a number of fatthful and long-standing members of our congregation, including Audrey Chandler. Ivy Parker and Noel Thomp50n.

Funding Vfas received from Rugby Borough Council to enable a point cloud survey of the building- a detsiled eleccronic visuali5ation of the building vvill proNllde a really helpful basis for all our future plans. Followinz on from this. we were delightsd to Secure a grdnt of just over £290.000 to support the cleanin& renovation and floodlighting of the Church Street frontage. funded out of Rugby Borough Council's town centre regeneration budger- works are expected to begin in May 2026. In tandem with this, work conunued on consulrarions for the replacement or refurbishment of our pipe organ wlth four organ builders invited to Vi51t and submit plan5.

A generous unrestricted legacy was received from the late Michael Griffin; and the full cost of the refurbishment of our historic gold altar frontal, one of the glories of our church, was covered by another legacy in memory of the late Stewart and Pat Smith and Brian and Margaret Newey. During the course of tlie year, the PCC carefully reviewed its pattern of meecings and after Easter adopted a new model of six longer meeting5 on Sunday afternoons. rather than the previous model of ten meetings on Wednesday evenings. Meetings now begin with a shared meal in the church cafe and then run from Ipm to around 3.30pm, allowing more Scope for extended debace of major issues. At the same time, the committee structure was reviewed and strengchened, and the majority of the Pcc's regular business is now conducted in Six key committees: Buildings, Children's and Families, Finance, Fundraising, Mission and Technical. This experiment has generLlly been considered a succe55 and it is likely that the new pattern will continue. During the year the PCC formulated 2 simplified version of its vision: Open - Inclusive - Involved. It features on the front cover of this report Clearly. confines of space mean that Dot every event. achievement or person can be mentioned, but each contribution made to our common life is valued highly by u5 all. The PCC would also like to take this opportunity to thank all those individua15 and organisations who have generou51y supported various aspects of our ministry and mission financially over this year.

When planning actiV￿leS for the year, the incumbent and the PCC has considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit and the specific guidance on charities for the adwdncement of religion. St Andrev/s exists to Serve the people of the ecclesiastical parish in which we are se¢ providing them with opportunities to: learn about the Christian faÉth ond develop a relationship vrith God through the sacrdmend. prayer and communiy life of the local church We also support people to live ouc their faith as part of our parish community through the additional three Anglican marks of mission (see above 3-5}.

Mlssion Hub This year it has been thy delight to see the mission hub really thriving after a considerable tirne of discernment and relat￿nshIp-bU1ldIng with other parishes both inside of Rugby deanery at)d in the wid¢r diocese. l am now activety working with I I Churches which includ& SL Andrew'5. Brownsover (Eden Park estate). SL George's, Harborough Magna with Easenhall. Brinklow. Monks Kirby. Ryton, 5toneleigh. Ashow, Bag"Inton. Bubbenhall and Leek Wooton. With both the Revel ￿0UP and the Stoneleigh benefice we have developed outdoor Messy Churches which are held once aimonth to engage children and families wtth the church. The numbers attending both have remained (alr￿ small due to the wl*e population l)ut we have built bug houses. put up outdoor remembrancè day disP￿y5 vthich the children have made and there is visible art work in all of the churches demonstrating that the church is alNe and acttye in small village communities. 1£ is encoura&Tng to see children listening to the bible stories they are told and participating in action songs as they learn more abbuc God'5 love for them. In addition to preachiTrg and presiding at SL Andrvw's. I have also led services at Ryton, V￿thin the Storieleigh benefice (Stoneleigh, Ashow, B¥"ng￿n and Bubbenhall) or at Leek Wooton. due to churches either being lin interregnum or there onty being one vicar for several Church's. It's impo55ible to be at 4 different Church's on a Sunday morning at the same time! One of the things that gave me great delight in the summer was wothng with the Diocesan Board of Educatton on an initiative they broughi to fruiEion, to go in w I I Church of England primary schools to do transition workkhops for year 6 children moving up to secondary school. The consisted of myself, a worker from Ising Pop and Thrtve youth academy who are also involved in schoo15 work In total we reached o&t to around 300 children Lo reassure them about their concerns in moving up to senior school and teaching them that tt￿Y are not ￿One in this transition, that God goes with them. All of the children were invited to an end of summer event which took place Lt Harris school vthere they could socialise each other. have pizz4 play on the play stations wthin the thrive youth bus they have. do karnoke and team games and just generally have fun. This enabled them tojrealise they are not the onty ones facing thi5 imminent transition and share any ongoing concems they had with others. Rugby deanery is no￿ making plan5 for this year'5 transrtion workshops which will be held at a more local level. We hope Ivicars will attend the schools they have responsibility With and put on a more local end of school yar event in their different Churches to enable a smoother transition for young people in to a youth group at their Ir)cat Churth. As part of my trrining within the mission hub. I have been privileged this year co al￿nd a year long national leaders course called 'Growing in larth, which equips people to develop 5trtte8ies to put children and young people more centrally within the Church of England and en￿ge them with Church. In addicion t'o the trrining being excellent {[ have learnt so much) it has becn really good to engage with others across England vA)o are also trying to engage chikjren and young people and learn from their good practice as well as sharing common frustrations and barriers to this vital work. I have also received t ining from Street Pastors to join their team a5 they reach out to those who need help within the Rugby are& I now regularly go out with their school team co engage with ehildren as they come out of Harris school with the hope of building relationships with them. Our hope is that once thé Chaplain at Harris school is appointed we can 5UPPOrt them to develop the Chrisuan union and Possibty start up a new worshipping community there.

Towards the end of September the Reverend Philip Morton (the vicar at SL George's) asked rf the mission hub would support him in leading a new discipleship course called 'Roots of Faith,. It's a course for new Christians to introduce them to faith. allow them time to ask any quesrions they have in a safe environment and rf they are interested, prepare them for baptism andlor confirmation. This course is held every other Tuesday evening and h3s had 6 participants attend in tottl. Thi5 course is going well. one person was baptised and two others confimied on the I" December by Bishop Sophie, with another per50n being bapused at Coventry Cathedral on Easter Sunday at their dawn servic In September the Re¢d Diane Bussey wds licensed as associate minister at Brownsover with an intention to have a pariicular focus on reaching our to the new housing estate called Eden Park I have been supporung her in this work which at the moment is still in its infancy. One of the things we have Successfully started is a weekly prayer morning every Wednesday at St Michael's and all angels Church. This 15 attended by 6 people from Eden Park are all praying for the growth of the Church and discernment as to which missional actsvity to undertake firsc One of the possibilities we are exploring is developing prnyer spaces within Eden Park infrdnc school where the children can engage creativety activities which TrMII tell them more about God in line with the school wdlues. Aside from my wider work within the deaneryldiocese I have also supported work Outside of St Andrews in our wider communiry such as services which the Uk￿nIan community asked us to hos food fesuvals, the bike fe5tiYal. the lantern parad< tree festival and Christmas tree light switch on and anything else that we think falls wtthin the remit of mission. In December Hannah and I hosted a live nativrty at May Blossom farm vthich was realty well receNed and attcnded by those who Hannah works all year. This induded children who are home schooled and d)ose she works with who havc special needs. Meanwhile, Rosebud& the new women's fellowship group, meeting at Satchmo'& has groyffi S￿dIly.

Revd Sharon Crofts Associate Minister Church Choir ond Organ This year has been a busy and rwdrding one for the Choir. A wide rnnge of Anglican repertoire has been sung. including Ireland's Greater Love and Stanford's MognifKtx and Nunc Dimitris in C.

The Young Choristers played a key role in the 5eNite and particularly enjoyed singing William Matthias's Sir Chilstemas. contributing confidentty and enthusiastically to a joyful celebrntion. At Easter. the services were also very well at￿nded, and we hope that the music provided a space for reflecuon and contempkuon during Hoty Week For a second year, a series of organ pieces helped to bring together the Good Friday lituru. and we are grateful for the thought and care that went into seletting and perfonning this music by Phil Johnson. The Young Chorister5 programme has continued to grt)w. and agreement has now been reached on a new proposal designed to generate greater enthusiasm and susrained engagemenL Work 15 underway 13

We also intend to invite addittonal builddrs to submtt quoration& with the 2im of having at least fwe proposals available for carefijl consideration. A visit was also made to Pershore Abbey to inspett the newly installed Ruffatti organ, and further visits to other instruments are planned. A concert vos held in July to ralse funds for the projeffj and the Friends of St Andrew's have now established their bank arrnngements, enabling them to manage and safward the money raised.

Technicol Services Technical Services as ia group has concinued in its mission of being a church for the wider community in 2025, with significant investments made both in tyme and financialty into the developments of broadcast and production in the earty 2026 period. We continue to suppbn production efforts across the tovm. namely at The BENN Hall. Rugby Borough Council, and Rugby Art Gallery.

Reserves Policy The Council consider that the reserves held at the end of the year were adequate for the church's needs over the nexc rwelve months. Whilst the unrestricted fund is in defico there are adequate fund5 held on deposit by designated flsnds to cover this Jnd provide sufficient working capital. The majority of the restricted and endowment funds assets are also held on dep05t( which can be realised at short notice. At presen( as mentioned abo￿ the church still has a small deficir on unrestricted genernl fiJnd5. It 15 the intention of the PCC to moye to a situation where some unrestricted genernl funds can be held in reserve to cover fijture expected general running costs with the rest of the funds held being either designated or retr￿1Cted for spectfic purposes. The PCC aims to hold the equivalent of six month5 running costs (Current￿ £81000). which includes st3ffing cosrs. bearing in mind our resporbsibility as employers. Strurture. Govemance and Manogement The Parochial Church Council of the Eccles￿1￿1 Parish of St Andrew Rugby was formed vA)en the Rugby Team Ministry VA5 dissolved on 4th July 2013. The method of apF>ointment of Parochial Church Council members 15 Set out in the Church Representation Rules. At St Andrew's Church. the membership of the PCC consists of the incumben( the churchwardens. Readers and other clergy (if COwOPted) and members of the congregation elected from the electortl roll. All those who attend our sernces or who live in the parish are encouraged to re&ster on the Elettornl Roll and vote for PCC members and Churchwardens. PCC members are responsible for making decisions on all matters of general concern and importance to the part5h, including deciding on how the funds of the PCC are to be spenr PCC members are atso trustee5 of the charity. New members receive infonnation about their dutie5 as a charity trustee. During the course of the year, the PCC carefully reviewed its pattern of meetings and, after Easter. adopted a new model of six longer meeting5 on Sunday afternoons. rather than the previous model of ten meetings on Wednesday evenings. The meetings begtn with a shared meal in the church cafe and then run from I pm co around 3.30pm. allowing more scope for exonded debate of major issues. At the same vme. the committee strutture was reviewed and strengthened, and the maiority of the PCC'S regular bu5ine5s is now conducted in Six key committees.- Building& Children's and families, Finance, Fundraisin& Mission and Technical. This experiment has generally been considered a 5UCC25S and it is likety that the new pattem wtll continue. Ensuring the Christian govemance of two church schools, St AndreY¥s Benn Primary School and Harris Church of England Academy is an additional responsibility of the PCC. Wrth the Diocesan Board of Education, the PCC appoints Foundation GoYernor5 to both Board5 and two members of our congregation serve on each board of governors (Edmund Newey and Isabelle McKenzie at SAB and James Sampson-Foster and Ltz Pichon at Harris), alon8side those whose appointrnents the PCC endorses. 17
