March 2025 Dear Brothers & Sisters, Please find the Trustees Report for Tabernacl Penrhyndeudraeth 2024. Whereas previously I would have gone through the report page by page, it will be easier if I go through them line by line. At the top of the fi rst page, you will see two titles, Unrestricted Funds and Restricted Funds. A Restricted Fund contains money that has been given for a specif ic cause, and therefore its use is Restricted for that use only. For us, last year, that was only Tabernacl. In A1, all the entries are self-explanatory, a part from 'Other Receipts, which covers the sale of surplus items. A2 This is for sale of assets & investments. As we have not sold any, there are no entries here. A3 Payment8. The titles usad here diff8r from what we were used to, and some items appear under different titles. The increase of about £10,000 in Payroll Expenses was because Pete's 2023 pay award was not paid until April24, and there was another pay award in Sept 2024. You will be aware that we have made a claim against our Executive Income Replacement Plan (Insurance) with Unum. This was rejected. We have appealed against this decision, using written evidence from Phil Swann. We are awaitingtheir reply. In line with Pete's increased salary, we have increased the 8mounts we give to Missionary Causes, although the total arnountgiven has decreased as we have ceased to support Rob & Gill Burridge, and Andrew Facer. You will notice that Connect Supply have provided analysis of the payments in Notes To The Financial Statements, sections A301 to A304. However, a further analysis of our Missionary Giving is as follows , Lydia Adams Lois Adams Grace Village Slavic GospeL Heledd Job Fiec 1256 560 1256 2240 1050 7312 Vislting Speaker 7462
The Travel Expenses £867 A302 includes both Pete and John Boiger's travelling. On the last page, in B1, you will see £102,059 in Restricted Funds. Theoretically this 8t should be the amount available to spend on Tabernaclon the 31 Dec 2024. However, £30,000 had not been transferred f rom the U nrestricted, giving a tot8l of £132,059 and leaving us with a Cash Reserve of £9,405. B2 showsthe Gift Claim forthe last quarter of2024. That has now been received. The 'Financial Activities by Month, show how money has come in overthe year, but includes gifts forTabernacl and General Fund together. Again, for this year, I cannot give an accurate estimate, but again it will be diff icult. The expenditure on Tabernacl will remain high, but we endeavour to get value for money. Thankyou to those who have bought items for the church but have not asked for renumeration, and to all of you who have helped in all sorts of practical ways. Thank you for reading this, and thanks for allyour prayers and help over the l8St twelve months. Again, ifyou have any questions, please phone me, email, or ask a question at the AGM. Robin (on behalf of the Trustees)

Services The main work ofthe church isthe gatheringforthe worship of God, and the preaching of His word has carried on overthe l8St year. We transmit Audio Recordings of our services online forthose unable to attend. We are again encouraged bythe small numbers of individuals who have started to attend our meetings for the firsttime over thisyear, although some other members have died or moved away. From 1°, March to 8t 31 May, Dave Owen a ministrytraineefrom Newtown Evangelical Church was seconded to us for work experience. Unfortunately, our pastor, Peter Campbell was off sickfrom mid-septemberto the end ofthe year. Thetwo remainingtiustees were greatlysupported by other church members, as well asvisiting ministers and members from other churches. Sunday School and Creche This has continued through the year with about 6 children attending regularly, more on some weeks, 8nd other children comingwhen theyare on holiday. There isteaching f rom the Bible and craft activities. We are grateful for the three helpers who run both activities, and a very good time of learning & fun is had by all. Youth Class Due to the increasing number ofyoungteenagers attending, it was decided to start a Youth Class (now known as the ? Class) which runs at the same time asthe Sunday School. This is led byone member, but alwayswith another member presentto meet the need of our Child Protection Policy. Mums and Toddlers This has continued throughoutthe year, and runs on a Thursday in the back room ofthe Neuadd Goffa. There are two helpers. Mothers, some ofwhom have on other links with the church attend with their children for craft, Bible Stories, cups of tea tor the Mums, squash, and fruit for the children. We are hoping to see this work grow by word of mouth and advertising in the village. as we feel it meets a real need. Explorers Children's Club This ran on a weekly basis during term time until the end of July. The difficult decision to postpone the work was taken due to the falling number of volunteers. About fifteen children of primaryschool age had attended each week. Ladles Meetings These are run twice 8 month on Thursday Mornings, afterthe Mums &Toddlers. About a dozen ladies attend where they have some meetings where they read a spiritual book, and some where they soci8lize.

Cafivyd bod y symiau a dalwyd yn cydfynd gyda'r symiau a nodwyd ar y '$twb' yn y Ilyfr sieciau, yr anfonebau a'r cyfriflenni banc. 2. Cafwyd bod y symiau a dderbyniwyd yn cydfynd gyda'r symiau a nodwyd ar y 'slwb' yn y Ilyfrau talu i mewn, y cysoniad a'r cyfrifl8nni banc. 3. Yn y cysoniad misol a therfynol, roedd y cyfansymiau yn cydfynd gyda'r symiau ar gyfer pob pennawd fel y'i p8ratowyd. l.

The amounts receNed matched the sums on the paying in book stubs, the ConCl118t10n and tha bank statements. 3. In the raconciliation the monthly and total amounts matched the amounts for each heading, as they had been presented. Roedd y doofennau i gyd wedi eu cyflwyno yn drefnus, yn 01 dyddiad, gyda thystiolaeth bod anfonebau wedi eu talu gyda sél bendith person arall, Ile'r oedd yn briodol.

The files werp neatly presented in date Oler, with evidenc6 attached that each invoice had be8n paid with the seal of approval of another person, Whe relevant. Th8 files showed a clear guidance through the expenditure and income, which facilitaled the work of crDSS-checking the payments.
Serch hynny, gyda'r drefn newydd o ga<tW'T cyfrrfon a gwneud taliadau cyflog ac ati, mae rhai anhawsterau yn anorfod. Adnabuwyd y canEynol'. Nid yw'r drefn newydd yn caniatau adnabod sieciau sydd heb eu cyflwyno. Nid yw bob amser yn glir pa dderbyniadau sy'n gymwys ar gyfer 'gift aid, neu GASDS. Nid yw'r dadansoddiad o'r cyflog, Treth Incwm, cyfraniad YG a chyfraniad Pensiwn yn cael ei ddangos ar wahan yn y cysoniad. However. with th8 new system of r8coftY k8eping and making payroll payments elc, a small number of issues will inevitably arise. The following We idpntified,. The new system does not identify any cheques that have not been presented. It isn't alw8ys clear which donations 8re eligible for gift or GASDS. The breakdown of th8 S818ry, Income tax, Nl contribution and Pension contribution is not shown separately in the reconciliation. Yn olaf, dylid nodi hefyd fe welwyd gwariant anarferol wrth adneddU capel Tabemacl yn ystod y flwyddyn, ac sydd yn parhau ar hyn o bryd, ynghyd a'r costau perthnasol. Finally, it should also be noted that the extr8oKlin8ry expendlture of upgr8ding C8pel Tabem8d happened during the year, 8nd whiGh is still ongoing, along with the essoGigted costs.
