## HAVEN CHURCH TRUST 

## Trustees’ Report 2020/2021 

Along with most charities, we report a year unlike any other.  While we have been challenged to rethink the way in which we work and worship as a church, we are grateful to God for the way in which we have been able to adapt to the effects of the coronavirus. 

Apart from the first three months of the year, we have been able to worship in our church building with various covid-precautionary measures in place.  We formed a special covid policy to protect members and visitors, and this has been very successful.  During the first three months, we recorded a service each week and distributed it by CD, email and social media.  We also supplemented this with weekly visits to each of our members and friends.  While some of our regulars have been reluctant to return to us yet, we are encouraged by those who meet with us weekly, including some new folk who have been attending regularly. 

Certain regular church events had to be suspended, including the young people’s work and various ministries to men and women.  We were unable to hold the VE75 exhibition as had been planned, although it is hoped to hold this again in the future. 

The church continues to support the St Austell Foodbank and is interested in jointly developing a local community help fund for the neediest in our parish.  Once again, we have had a tremendous support for Operation Christmas Child. Despite the pandemic, we were able to send 270 tightly packed shoeboxes from the church to needy children in Eastern Europe. 

We continue to be satisfied that the use of the church building has been in line with the Trust Constitution and for the benefit of the community.  During the summer, the building’s exterior was cleaned, repaired and repainted.  The interior is regularly maintained and remains very presentable. 

While the thrust of our work is local, we are not parochial in our concerns or efforts. We believe that the Good News of Jesus is for all the world and therefore we are especially supportive of work in Madeira, the Philippines and in Central Asia.  While the workers we have supported in Central Asia will be reluctantly returning to the UK, to continue their ministry remotely, our members in Madeira are planning to settle on the island shortly, making several contacts in their frequent visits.  Together with another family from the UK, they plan to be active on the island and have detected a growing interest in their mission to Madeira.  Our church supports them in their efforts to share the Gospel with Madeirans and to grow a ‘sister church’ on the island. 

The church is also supportive of friends who are working with churches, societies and relief organizations in the Philippines. 

The usual annual inspections of the church building have been conducted and updated where necessary.  This has included fire protection as well as the testing of the church’s electrical and AV systems.  Trust policies are constantly revisited, reviewed and renewed where appropriate. 

Our vision for the future includes a consolidation and extension of existing work, together with the recruitment of additional, younger church members and families. While age, infirmity and circumstances have inhibited the contribution that some 



valued members can provide, we pray that the Lord will send his workers into the Gorran Haven ‘harvest field’, where we look for fruit to be harvested.
