Charity Commission

Trustees Annual Report for the year ending Dec 31[st] 2022 St Francis Church, West Bessacarr Registered Charity No 1169458

Aims and Purposes

St. Francis Parochial Church Council (PCC) has the responsibility of cooperating with the incumbent, the Reverend Richard Heard, in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical.

The PCC is also specifically responsible for the maintenance of St Francis Church and Meeting Room and its operation both as a church and as a centre for community activity in Bessacarr.

Objectives and Activities

The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our church and become part of our parish community at St Francis. At each meeting the PCC reviews how effective our recent activities have been. Our services and worship put faith into practice through prayer and scripture, music and sacrament. Our pastoral team works with those in the church community who have needs due to ill health, aging, isolation, financial or other reasons.

The PCC also sees that part of its evangelistic role is to minister to the local community through a variety of activities based at our hall and café which provide a social and community benefit as well as the opportunity to discover, explore or grow in faith for those who are interested. The church hall and café is centred on the shops in Nostell Place, West Bessacarr and so we reach local people as well as many of whom do not live in the ecclesiastical parish.

When planning our activities for the year the incumbent and the PCC bear in mind the Commission’s guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. In particular we try to enable ordinary people to live out their faith as part of our parish community through:

Worship and prayer; learning about the Gospel and developing their knowledge and trust in Jesus.

Provision of pastoral care for people living in the parish Evangelistic and outreach work

In addition, we offer the use of the building, at a rate which is aimed to cover our costs, to any member of the local community regardless of race, religion or any other factor with the one proviso that only Christian worship takes place on the premises.

To facilitate this work it is important that we maintain the fabric of St Francis Church and Meeting Room.

As the year progressed more of our activities have resumed since the interruption of the Covid Pandemic. By the end of the year, most but not all activities had resumed.

Achievements and Performance

A: Worship and prayer

Between January and October the church offered on a Sunday a 9.15am communion service and an 11.15am more informal all age style service. As a result of a consultation from October 2nd these were combined to form a 10am service with a group for children and a creche for the youngest children. Alongside this we have continued to provide a pre-recorded online service on you tube for those not yet ready to return to church as well as for those outside of the faith who are looking for an easy and non threatening way to "dip their toe in". The church continued to offer morning-prayer including Bible study every week day morning and a prayer meeting every Thursday evening on

zoom. We also had several extended prayer and worship events to draw closer to God pray for our community and especially seek the help we needed for particular issues e.g. Funding for building development and recruiting youth workers. The WhatsApp prayer group for urgent prayer continues to be well used. Growth Groups continued to meet online or in person.

All our services are open to the whole community and are advertised on our noticeboards, website and social media. We also offer a number of seasonal guest services to help people celebrate the seasons and also to people outside the church community an easier way to connect. The Christmas services were the first services since 2019 that felt "normal" and had good church and wider community engagement.

B: Pastoral care

A group meets together regularly with the church’s pastoral care coordinator, the pastoral worker and the incumbent to discuss the health and personal problems which members of the congregation are facing. Any practical help which could be of benefit is arranged and prayer is offered in all cases. In August the pastoral care co-ordinator moved out of the area and we have recruited additional people to the pastoral care team to seek to cover some of her work.

The Café Theo our community cafe re-opened in March with some adjustments to how the cafe runs in order to minimise the risk of covid transmission. Customers from the church and wider community returned and the cafe was once more able to provide a means of reducing social isolation as well as enabling pastoral care to take place.

Toddler group restarted under the new name of Fledglings in April with some new team members and it has met weekly in term time since. It begins with singing time and a bible story and song. Then the children play with a vast array of toys and activities giving them opportunity to learn to interact with others. Parents and carers as well as enjoying watching their little ones play get the chance to find support and encouragement from each other and the team. Part way through the play time there is drink and snack time for adults and children. The group finishes with more singing time and announcements

about upcoming activities and a prayer. All major expenditure is by agreement with PCC.

The work with older people also involves much pastoral care. This has restarted initially in the hall where there is more space. There is a different activity each Monday afternoon. This draws in good numbers of people from the wider community as well as people from the church congregation. The team are always ready to offer a listening ear and offer support and help where needed. The pre-covid J.O.Y (just older youngsters) resumed with the one change of the Meet and Eat meal was not restarted as the previous cooks were not in a position to resume. It was replaced with Coffee Cake and Quiz which is also very popular.

Here again overall financial control rests with PCC. There are always trained listeners on hand if bereaved people want to talk through their experience of grief with someone outside of their immediate family.

Two groups are associated with the church but are financially independent. The first is a large Mothers’ Union branch which up until the end of March held a monthly Soup Lunch in the café. The second is an initiative called Aspire which brings together people who live alone and there is something they wish to do but have no one to share it with.

The Tuesday evening outreach youth group Connect and monthly Sunday afternoon discipleship youth Deeper continued until the summer. These provided opportunities for young people to explore faith and/or grow in faith as well as being a safe place for young people to have fun and also have a listening ear if they wished to speak about the issues they were struggling with in their life. Connect did not restart after the summer break as our part time youth worker moved on to a full time job and we had difficulty recruiting another part time youth worker. We could eventually restart Connect in November with some Youth for Christ workers leading our St Francis youth volunteers.

Integrate the families group did not resume although plans were made during the year to restart the group early in 2023 with some new team members and a slightly different emphasis.

C: Deanery Synod

Three members of PCC sit on the Deanery Synod and bring issues from the wider church to the notice of PCC. Usually Synod meets 3 times a year. We explore a variety of topics this year including Living in love and faith (Human sexuality and the church), Refugee crisis and discipleship.

D: Mission and Evangelism

As part of our vision statement we seek to be a church that grows, loves, builds community and brings transformation in Christ’s name. To this end our café, toddlers, community fun mornings, youth work, older people’s work all seek to bring something of God’s love and care to those outside of our “regular congregation”. People from the congregations are encouraged to seek to make a positive, loving difference wherever they are and whatever they are doing.

At Christmas we provided over 60 food parcels for low income families at 4 local schools. We also provided smaller gift parcels to those outside the church community who had recently been bereaved or had experienced some significant difficulty that year as a way of practically demonstrating love and care for them.

A small team provided regular assemblies at both local schools and also received one of the schools to church for a special Christmas service. At Christmas we held a big community fun morning that was free as a way of showing love to the community and also to help people know about the different activities we have on offer.

Cafe Theo, Fledglings Toddlers, J.O.Y (Just older youngsters) & Connect all seek to provide practical help and support for the people who attend these groups and they are also a way for people to find out about the faith if they wish and also find out where they can find out more.

Aspire, a group for social activities for those living alone also seeks to do this and has introduced a thought for the day slot at the end of the meeting. Holiday at Home is a 3 day event aimed at older people that provides a variety of activities to enable people to have fun, build friendships and break down

isolation. Gentle "thought for the day" short talks are also provided each day in order to help people to know how to begin to make connections.

This year we ran two Alpha courses partly as outreach for those not yet part of the church or the faith and partly as nurture and discipleship for church members keen on growing in faith.

The services in the building and online as well as special seasonal services, and weddings, baptisms and funerals always have an aim to help people to grow in faith and also designed to help those outside the faith to find reasons and practical ways to join the faith and get to know God for themselves when they are ready.

A group of church members began to meet to look at ways of helping the church as an organisation and church members to become more environmentally aware looking at practical ways to reduce waste including plastic waste, recycle and reduce carbon emissions. This group called “Green Church” was formally launched in February and began working towards the A Rocha Bronze eco church award. This group encourages the whole church to care for creation which is good in itself. They also look at ways to reach out to others with the message of creation care as well as God’s care for them. One event that helped with this was a well attended Eco Friendly Christmas which provided practical ways of providing and creating beautiful presents by repurposing and reusing things that may well have just been thrown away.

Throughout the year several members of church worked with the Diocesan digital mission enabler and a local web designer to develop a new website that is helpful for church members but is primarily designed for those not yet part of the church family. This was finally launched in December.

In July after a giving campaign and a whole night of prayer we had a gift day to help us raise funds to redevelop the cafe and kitchen, provide storage in the hall and develop the toilets to include two fully accessible toilets. After the successful gift day and many grant applications have also been made to enable us to have the funds to be able to complete this work in 2023. The giving and applications that make this project possible will enable us to be more effective in reaching out to more people through the cafe, more community meals and more welcoming of wheelchair users.

E: Relationships with other Churches

The church is part of a deanery and the incumbent is co-area dean and so is involved in meetings that are at least monthly and the church seeks to be engaged in supportive relationships with other Anglican churches through the deanery chapter. The curate is involved with the weekly One Heart One Voice ecumenical ministers’ prayer meeting for Doncaster.

Volunteers

An organisation such as ours could not exist if it were not for the voluntary efforts of a considerable number of people. The PCC are grateful for all who make the church the lively and vibrant place it is.

Financial Review

Treasurer’s Report 2022

For ease of understanding figures below are approximates, commentary is given for principal expenditures only

Giving / Income

The year marked our first of budget stability in a post Covid environment as we returned to committing to a full diocese share of £55,000 and our congregation returned to full time worship in the building. Giving in the year was at budgeted level but flat against 2021 at £86,000. However, we did hold a gift aid day to raise funds for the building renewal in which we raised £52,500.

A closer analysis shows giving through plate rose by 800% as we returned to worshipping in the building on a regular basis, but it remains at levels about half of traditional giving. Envelopes remained at a static level whilst standing orders (bank transfer and PGS) grew by 3.6%. Gift aid funding although down 8% was above expectations and added £3,200 to income above budget. We continued to support the activity of a youth worker throughout the year with regular income / grants covering the costs. The Parish Giving Scheme (PGS) continues to be the predominant way of donating to the church accounting for 72.5% of our income compared to Plate at 2.5%, direct debit 11% and of course envelopes at 14%. The scheme continues to be the best way of donating to the church as it prompts people to regularly review their gifting and delivers the benefit of receiving gift aid almost immediately as opposed to waiting for an annual return. Once again I would like to make my request for

as many people as possible to consider moving to donation via this scheme to guarantee our cash flow.

Activities

Hall Activity – rent rallied during the year against 2021, and delivered £10,300 income (93% of budget). Dance On, Rugbytots and the various uniform groups form the mainstay of our income. We need to continue to seek new renters to drive income back to the pre covid levels of nearly £18,000.

Toddler activity – the group recommenced with a new team and whilst not financially profitable provides excellent outreach into the community.

Cafe Activity – Our cafe continued its return to growth achieving sales of £28,700 and a profit to the bottom line of £2,900. It remains one of our key outreach activities and thanks must go to Liz Smith, Jodie Picken and the myriad of volunteers who make it such a success.

General events – our outreach events were slow to start up during the year, however, we did run holiday at home and the Christmas fun morning at a net cost of £404.

We once again delivered bags of kindness during November and December. These activities were funded through a combination of grants and the generosity of people’s time and financial donations.

Finally we launched our new web site during December moving us to have an online presence that finally reflects the values that we as a church embrace – all costs were within our annual publicity budget.

Funds

dishwasher (an item that can be transferred into the new refurbished kitchen).

Charity

In addition to our own funding we collected and distributed money to ten charities - Shelter, CMS, MAF, Christian Aid, A Rocha, Calcutta Cathedral, Leprosy Mission, Trussel Trust, Children's Society and the two appeals through DEC (Ukraine and Pakistan). Due to banking problems we were unable to fulfil our commitment to Agape - £500, but we hope to restore this relationship during 2023.

Conclusion

Our overall funds grew from a starting position of £106,429 to £149,441, an increase of £43,000 which is a solid financial performance and puts us in a good position to commence renewal of our building, deliver a realistic Diocese share and continue our expansion of faith and outreach into our community.

We have yet to commence our construction work to improve the operation and fabric of the building, but we now have a set of plans and hope to commence work during 2023. This once again leaves me with the conclusion that we remain in a strong position to continue our growth. My thanks extend to Liz Smith for her accurate recording of transactions and Michael Fenton for his support with the auditing of the figures.

Structure, governance and management

The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. At St Francis the membership of the PCC consists of the incumbent, the churchwardens and members elected by those members of the congregation who are on the electoral roll of the church. All those who attend our services and are part of our worshiping community are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and stand for election to the PCC.

The PCC members are responsible for making decisions on all matters of general concern and importance to the parish including deciding how the funds of PCC are to be spent.

The full PCC met on ten occasions during the year with an average level of attendance.

Urgent business was dealt with by a Standing Committee consisting of the incumbent, any curate, the wardens, PCC lay vice chair, PCC secretary and PCC treasurer which also acts as the agenda committee for PCC. This committee, except in an emergency, has a limited budget and reports all matters of relevance back to PCC for approval.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE PCC OF ST FRANCIS CHURCH. BESSACARI< DONCASTEF I report on the accounts of th8 Church for the year ended 31° De(xmber 2022. Respedlve Responslbllitles of Tru$tè•s and Examlner The Churth's Irustees are responsible for the preparati<)n of the financial statements. The Church's 's trustees ￿)nSIdets that an audit is not required for this year under section 144{2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an indeperKlent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to: examine the financial ststements (under section 145 of the 2011 Act); follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(51(b) of the 2011 Act): and stste whether particular matters have corne to my attenticffi. Basls of Independent examlnerfs report My examination was carried out in 8(X(Xdan￿ with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination indudes a revtew of the accounting rettjrds kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented wtth those records. It also indudes considerats'on of any unusual items or disdosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees conceming any such matte￿. The procedures undertaken do r￿t provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the acrnunts present a Irue and fair view. and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. Independent examlnerfs statement In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any matwial resped the requirements: to keep ac¢ounb'ng records in a￿)rdance with seclion 130 of the 2011 Act; and to prepa￿ accounts which accord with the accwnlitvJ records and comply with the accounting requirements of Ihe 2011 Acl have not been met., or 2. to which. in my opinion. attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understsnding of the accounts to be reached.
