undertake initial training into the workings of the PCC provided by the diocese. Since our
entitlement is for 9 elected members. we have 3 vacancies for elected members. There
are no churchwardens or PCC Secretary.
The full PCC met 11 time5 throughout the year with an average level of attendance of
66Yo. Two meetings had only 40% attendance, that is 4 members out of a possible 10,
which makes it difficult to have constructive discussions or make decisions.

resources for our mission and outreach.
AchieVeme￿S Perforw￿£t
Worship and prayer
Our Sunday services were led by both the Reverend Edmund Cargill Thompson I"Father
'Mund ) and the Reverend Patty Linders { Mother pat￿). During their absence due to
illness, we welcomed a variety of visiting priests including Bishop Pete. We welcomed our
new Bishop Lusa at the beginning of May and enjoyed lunch and fellowship together.
Bishop Lusa visited again in November as part of his Prayer Pilgrimage, walking the
Northolt & Greenford churches. We have obtained the service of a monthly paid pianist
Stephen Daltry to lead the music and have been using recorded music on the other
Sundays.
An average of 36 adults and 7 children have attended the Sunday mass.
In December 1170 people participated in Advent orchristmas services, the overwhelming
majority of these being services held in the local community such as in pubs or atthe tube
station. {By participated we include those who engaged in some way with the service and
exclude those (for example at the tube station)

year.
Church membership
The year ended with 73 parishioners on the Church Electoral Roll.
Maxcine Hill-Beattie moved from the parish to Kent, when Fr Angus Started his
new ministry in Ramsgate. At the beginning of February 2023. we lost our beloved
sister Enid Mitchell at the age of 97; she will be sadly missed by many.
Pastoral care
Some members of our parish are unable to attend church due to sickness or age.
These receive a mix home communions and telephone services from our clergy.
Care for church members who are going through specific personal difficult
situations is provided by our two clergy.
A WhatsApp Group was established during the Pandemic and offers a two-way
channel of communication from notices to personal thanksgivings and prayer
requests.
The Barney Group (see below) led by Margaret Cobley and Jane Nicholls offers
mutual support and care for our over 55s.
Children's Work
Sunday School (which during the pandemic had taken place only in an online
form) began again in physical form this year. Funmi Hinimikaiye has been leading
this On￿ a month while the fact we now have Iwo prwts in the parish means Fr Mund
has been able to lead ad hoc additional sessions.

and a celebratory lunch for Eileen Seal's 100 birthday.
The Community Payback Team. undertake a lot of tasks both in and outside the
hall, around the outside of the church and in the Garden of Rest. Their work
reduces maintenance expenditure on our buildings.
Our Building fund holds £5000 for security work.
Mission and evangelism
Christmas events were advertised on our website and through social media and
through the distribution of Church Christmas Cards to local schools and around
some of the local streets. A number of our sermons were posted on YouTube and
have been viewed by people beyond the parish.
In December Christmas outreach events including the carols at the Blackhorse
pub and the Greenwood pub and two sets of carol singing at Greenford Tube
Station. The Church hosted visits from various uniformed organisation5 groups
and from Greenwood Primary khool to learn more about the Christian Faith.

Funds are made up of Unrestricted (general), Designated and Restricted funds. Designated
funds are monies set aside for particular activities but may, if necessary, be used for general
activities. The fixed asset value of Vemon Rise is treated as a Designated Fund-the property
belongs to the London Diocesan Fund but St Barnabas are pemiitted to retain the rent.
Total receipts for non-restricted (general and designated) funds were £83.204 (up £18,478 on
20211, of which the total voluntary income was £29.348 lup £l.(X)4 on 20221. Voluntary income

restricted donations. In addition. a tax refund of £6.077 was received on unrestricted Gift
Aided Donations.
Planned giving by envelope had reduced during 2022. Partly due to a couple of members
moving to bank givin& but maybe since some have been unable to get to church. We are
grateful for all your efforts in supportingthe ministry of our church overthis past year.
At the beginning of the yearthere were 44 members {36 gift aided their payments) in the
planned giving scheme and the year ended with 38 members {30 gift aided their payments). In

Annual Rewrt2022

Hall Income was £24,728 {up £14,886 on 2021}. This income is used to cover general expenses
not covered by voluntary donations. We have a huge increase this year due to the weekend lets
includingthe Church of God led by Pastor Luke, who meet in the hall most Sundays and Friday
nights. Birthday party lets continue to be popular.
Rent from the house in Vernon Rise is outstanding for half of November and December {and
onwards into 20231. Action is being taken to deal with the situation.

of £145 was received from CCLA bank interest, which was up on 20211£133}. The same funds
remain in this account but the interest rate has increased leading to a good increase.
£45,441 {up £8.208 on 2021) was spent from non-restricted funds to provide the Christian
ministry of St Barnabas Church, including the parish's contribution to the Diocese of £27,500
(£25,000 in 2021) which contributes towards the stipends and housing for the clergy. This
amount represented around 32% of the amount required to cover our relevant costs for one
member of clergy- the remainder is covered by the generosity of other churches.
Clergy expenses were reimbursed up to an agreed budget.
Utility bills in the thurch cost £2,925 (up by £1,609 on 20211. Hall utility bills totalled £4.186 lup
£2,913 on 20211. Heating timers are being carefully monTtored to keep costs down, but new
contracts for gas and elertricity had to be negotiated for 2022 resulting in much higher prices.
As already mentioned, a grant was received from the dioceses to help with the church utility
bills.
We have been able to set aside fijrther moneysothat we have. at the end of the year. £60,739

ReseYVS poLiGy
It is PCC policy to try to maintain a balance on free reserves (net current assets) which equates
to at least three months, non-restricted payments. This is equivalent to £12.287. It is held to
smooth out fluttuations in cash flow and to meet emergencies. The balance of the free reserves
at the year-end was £60,739. The Reserve Fund is being built up to carry out quinquennial
repairs. The agreed figure for Common Fund in 2023 is £30.250
A ftjrther £5.000 in restricted funds are held for a security System
The balance in the CCLA Church of England Deposit Fund belongs to the Screen Fund, Purple
Fund, Youth Walsingham donations and Youth Club funds.

voLbLVLteers
We would like to thank 311 the volunteers who work so hard to make our church a welcoming
community. Being a volunteer is part of what it means to be.the Body of ChrisV11 Corinthians
121. With the exception of the vicar, every job at St Barnabas is carried out by volunteers.
However. the burden continuesto be great- lacking Churchwardens and a PCC Secretary has put
considerable stress onto so few.
Paid Employees
St Barnabas is not currently employing any staff.
