water filters distribLrted to families. The Zeo family gave so generously in our March 2024 Gift Month which enabled us to lal give £20,000 to enable Paul and Elaine Little {our Zeo Pastors in Mexico}, have funds to build 5 houses in their community, (b) Give £8,00010 support the rehabilitation of Ethan Bums {8 21-year who was paralysed in an accident), {c) £13,000 in to our Community Fund. We undertook a major team reslructuring to align with the new vision. It was difficull for much-loved team members to find their roles redundant, but they handled Ihis with such grace, and they were rightly generously honoured by the church. The restrtjcturing also led to new roles and we've been very blessed by Nicola Foster coming into position as our Hitchin Pastor, and Elijah Ogidi-olu as our Creative Manager. We ran several Christmas events giving us one of our biggest Christmas, ever including over 400 attending The Kings Chamber Orchestra, over 50 attenijing the Winter Wonderland Kids experience, over 250 at Carols at the Town Hall, and around 200 at our Christmas Eve candlelight service. We have had another really good year at Zeo Kids. 53 children signed up for the summer club called Pyramid Rock. This year many of the children were from the community and schools in the area {33 ofthe sign-ups) which has been one of our goals. This was a great success with at least 25 adUS {including 4 from CAP) and about 6 teenagers supporting and using their skills and lalents. Average attendance as Zeo Kids on Sunday Celebrations 1$ 27. The incorporation of a prayer cirde, worship and thanksgiving stations during the sessions has encouraged the children to pray short prayers out loud and enjoy the fact that there are different ways lo thank God through praise and worship. Over 30 teens and adults attended the Satellites youth carnp in August 23. Close friendshi s were fomied with Page4of11
each other and with God. We're very grateful for the 24 people who volunteer in the Pastoral Team who provide a range of support for people e.g. visiting, praying, pradiG81 help etc. The team meets lce a year for friendship and training. Thè Helping Hands were involved in practical help projects on 11 Saturdays throughout the year. 28 families helped (including 4 Zoo families helped> with projects including 11 Gardening Jobs (including one new play areal, 11 Painting Jobs, 7 DIY Jobs (including 2 declutter jobs wilh tip runs}. An average of 16 people each Saturday (max 19, min 12) with a minimum of 795 man hours. The review and closure of the CAP Debt Centre went smoothly with special thanks lo Carlton Andrews and His team. We're grateful for debts of over £1 million being cleared during the lifetime of the CAP Debl Centre. The work in the Job Club and Lifeskills courses have been very quiet and under review for the coming year. We ran Warni Welcome throughout the winter months offering a safe space for people lo come for warmth, food, fun and friendship. Numbers varied between 6-12 people. Following much discussion and prayer, the difficult and sad decision was tnade to close Playbox at the end of the academic year (July 2024) - celebrating nearly four decades of incredible community impact, whilst then tnaking room for a wider impact as Zeo Centre becomes available in the week for more community offerings.
