STRUCTURE GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

The Church in Wales is governed by its Constitution, set up under section 13(1) of the Welsh Church Acts 1914, as amended from time to time by its Governing Body. The MISSION AREA CONFERENCE is not a body corporate. Its composition, procedures and powers are regulated by the Constitution, which provides that before assuming office, every member must sign a declaration that he or she will be bound by the Constitution.

The Constitution provides that the members of the MISSION AREA CONFERENCE shall be: The Incumbent, Vicars and Assistant Curates; two Church Wardens, one appointed by the Incumbent and one elected at the Annual Vestry Meeting (AVM); two Sub-wardens for each Church where there is more than one Church in the MISSION AREA, one appointed by the Incumbent and one elected at the AVM; Up to 25 lay members elected at the AVM; co-opted Secretary and Treasurer (if not already exofficio or elected); and up to 7 further co-opted members. Lay, communicant persons over the age of 16 may be entered on an Electoral Roll (subject to certain conditions) and all such persons, so entered, are entitled to vote and to stand for election.

OBJECTIVES, ACTIVITIES AND PUBLIC BENEFIT

As required by the Charities Act 2011, the MISSION AREA CONFERENCE has given due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission in respect of the operation of the public benefit requirement. The activities undertaken to fulfil the MISSION AREA CONFERENCE's purposes for the public benefit are described and detailed hereunder. The Church in Wales is a Province within the Anglican Communion and seeks to advance the Christian religion through world-wide mission. It is the responsibility of the MISSION AREA CONFERENCE and the Incumbents to work together and cooperate in all matters of concern and importance to the MISSION AREA for the promotion of the mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical in the MISSION AREA. The MISSION AREA CONFERENCE is responsible, inter-alia, for the MISSION AREA budget and all expenditure thereunder, the care and maintenance of Church fabric and of the Churchyards, and for any action or other matter referred to it in accordance with the Constitution and is the normal channel of communication between the people of the MISSION AREA and the Diocesan Bishop.

Please Note : In 2021 churches continued to be restricted due to Covid regulations. The figures are therefore limited to the last 4 months (Sep-Dec) of 2021.

*These figures show the number of attendees at the main Christmas Eve/Day Services, however other Services such as Crib and Carol Services drew quite large congregations and have become popular community events.

**Most Churches were closed for a large proportion of the year in 2020 and 2021 and Covid restrictions were in place.

MISSION AREA LEADER’S INTRODUCTION

The past year has seen a very slow emergence from the total lockdowns of 2020. However, we have still been very limited in our activities as the Covid Regulations changed at regular intervals. Many of our business meetings have continued to be virtual and this has led to decisions by all our

MA Committees to mix our types of meetings in future. Virtual meetings have a distinct advantage on those winter evenings when getting into the car to attend a meeting in a (sometimes cold) church or hall is the alternative. However, we will be together physically for our Annual Vestry Meeting in Northop on 7[th] April, when we will share in Worship, decision making, refreshments and fellowship.

The year has seen some changes in our MA and in the way we are approaching Mission. In June the Rev’d Adrian Johnson joined us as our Non-Stipendiary Curate based in Bro Famau. Then in November we were delighted to welcome the Rev’d Canon Martin Batchelor into our Shared Ministry Team. Martin has been appointed as Mission Hub Specialist based in St Mary’s Mold, and as the priest rooted in Northop. He will be the Leader of a team which will (eventually) include a Family Lay Worker and a Curate, all of whom will focus on finding ways to connect with the communities in Mold and the rest of our MA. This not only means that we are fully staffed again, it also means that we have a little spare capacity so that some of the things we would like to do can now be attempted.

Page 5 of 16

At the end of 2020 we were finally able to put a Mission Action Plan together based on the Mission Area Review of 2020. This will be re-examined regularly as we begin new activities and either end, or decide not to begin, others. It is a living document which will change as the circumstances of our MA and our communities change.

The departure of Archdeacon John Lomas at the end of 2021 will, inevitably, impact upon us during the coming year as decisions are made at Diocesan level regarding the future of the Archdeacons in the Diocese.

There is no doubt that we are gradually becoming a more united entity as members of the various church families get to know one another better. This was illustrated when Bishop Gregory came to officiate at the licensing service in Mold Church on 28[th] November. It was lovely to see so many people from across the Mission Area, sharing together as we welcomed Martin into our midst, and I was relicensed as Mission Area Leader.

The small groups (Treasurers, Buildings and Shared Ministry) which work together at the centre of the MISSION AREA continue to work really well. My thanks go to the members of those groups whose participation isn’t limited to official meetings as they are always ready to help one another whenever needed.

Obviously, none of the work that goes on throughout the Mission Area could be done without the small army of volunteers who staff our churches. My thanks go to all who enable the work of worship and mission, including (but not restricted to) Members of the Shared Ministry Team, Worship Leaders, Pastoral Assistants, Wardens, Treasurers, Secretaries, Committee Members, and the many others who give of their time and talents to enable church life to flourish. A special “Thank you” to Mel Morgan Condren and Kevin Weston for their continued support as Mission Area Wardens, to Sue Churm our Mission Area Treasurer and, of course to our Development Officer; Dr Emily Clarke-Jones who keeps me, and everyone else organised.

Rev’d Carole Poolman Mission Area Leader

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Mission Area Leader’s Report

Despite the difficulties associated with the Pandemic, THE MISSION AREA PERSONNEL have continued to maintain regular worship. When possible, this has taken place in the Church Buildings, otherwise, a mixture of virtual services and written services/readings delivered by hand or post have been the substitute. Pastoral Care, often via phone calls, was provided across the Mission Area with the help of the Pastoral Assistants and retired clergy.

Within the SHARED MINISTRY TEAM, The Rev’d Adrian Johnson joined us as our MA Curate based in Bro Famau and The Rev’d Canon Martin Batchelor joined the team as Mission Hub Specialist working from St Mary’s Church, Mold and as priest rooted in Northop.

Within the MISSION AREA in addition to the 6 clergy, a Reader, and a Pastoral Chaplain, we also have 23 Worship Leaders and 12 Pastoral Assistants. Our Mission Area also welcomed 2 ordinands on placement in September 2020, one of whom will be ordained in July 2022 and will then transfer to Mountain and Estuary Mission Area. The other is due to be ordained in 2023 and therefore remains with us during the coming year.

Page 6 of 16

It was with great sadness that we marked the death of Mr John Foxlee who, as a Reader and MAC Trustee, had been active right across the MA and Diocese. We will continue to miss his contributions to our corporate life.

THE MISSION AREA TRUSTEES/CONFERENCE agreed in 2020 that all MISSION AREA meetings could be held virtually, by phone, by email or by post, and this has allowed the necessary business of the MISSION AREA and churches within it to continue to be conducted. In December, the Trustees agreed a Mission Action Plan based on the Mission Area Review of 2020 together with the instigation of the Mission Hub. The Mission Area Action Plan will be re-assessed at regular intervals. The MISSION AREA TREASURERS continue to pay as many bills as possible from the centre. Once again, we have received grants from the Diocese to help with the lack of income due to the Pandemic, however, these have now come to an end. This means that fund raising will be needed in all our churches if we are to maintain the necessary income.

MISSION AREA WORK WITH CHILDREN. The growth experienced last year has been maintained. Once again, we have The Rev’d Kathy Stewart, Dr Wendy Shillito and the Messy Church Team, to thank for this. We are extremely grateful to them for all their hard work. Please see the Messy Church report from Rev’d Kathy.

The MISSION AREA PERSONNEL have continued to provide support, pastoral care, and worship for many different age groups across the MISSION AREA in another turbulent year when conditions and regulations changed continually.

Rev’d Carole Poolman Mission Area Leader

Mission Area Wardens’ Report

Putting pen to paper, on a sunny day in Spring, one can smile at the lambs in the fields and the daffodils in abundance: the signs of new life and beginnings. Yet this year we are witnessing the sad events taking place in Ukraine. Please pray for all in the Ukraine and help provide assistance. On Saturday 5[th] March a vigil was held at our Mother church, St Mary’s the Virgin, in Mold and vigils will continue until peace returns.

“And when the broken-hearted people living in the world agree There will be an answer, let it be For though they may be parted, there is still a chance that they will see There will be an answer, let it be Whisper words of wisdom, let it be, And when the night is cloudy there is still a light that shines on me Shinin' until tomorrow, let it be

I wake up to the sound of music, Mother Mary comes to me”

Sincere thanks to everyone involved in our Mission Area for working together and bringing us out of the Pandemic in a stronger position to move forward on our journey of hope, faith, and love. It is good to see our expanding clerical team, of Carole, Kevin, Daniel, Kathy and Adrian being joined by Martin Batchelor in November 2021. Martin will be instrumental in supporting us in the development of the Mission Area Hub.

Our thanks to the clergy, volunteers, and congregations in the Mission Area for pulling together to support people and assist them when they are in isolation, in hospital or sadly when a life was lost. Churches have remained open when possible and our fellowship has continued to move forward with the opportunity to return to more real meetings and away from Zoom.

Financially it could have been very difficult, yet once again being part of the Mission Area, we have been able to help each other when required. The Church in Wales and the Diocese have been excellent in adjusting Parish Share requirements and our congregations have been generous in difficult times. Thank you.

Meetings of the Mission Area Conference, the subcommittees of Finance and Buildings have continued to meet on a regular basis and have provided an invaluable base for sharing and preparing the Mission Area for the future. We are now in a good place to continue to develop our Mission Area Plan, for the homeless, for the hungry, for our children, our families, and our neighbours. Now our worship has become less virtual, may our service continue!

As always, we convey our thanks to every member of our MA for all they do.

Our sincere gratitude to Emily our development officer and Sue Churm our treasurer.

Every team needs a leader to pull them through; our grateful thanks to Rev Carole our leader, for binding us all together.

Melanie Morgan Condren and Kevin Weston Mission Area Wardens

Mission Area Treasurer’s Report

The Mission Area bank position at 31.12.21 was £40,054.74, this includes all 2021 monthly receipts from Churches and all amounts paid centrally, there are no balances in centrally paid accounts receivable or payable.

The 2020 quarter 2 pandemic refund of £27,178 which is held under designated funds, to be used to support churches in difficulty, now stands at £23,178, this amount is included in the £40,054 bank balance. The £4,000 awarded to St. Mary’s, Mold to help with the 2021 Parish Share has been deducted from the original amount, when the balance of the pandemic refund is eventually divided between the Churches this will be in the same ratio as the Parish Share paid. Also included in the balance in the bank is, as agreed in previous years, one year’s Development Officers salary, including provision for any increases and any expenses claimed. We have applied for a Grant of £4,000 towards the salary, if this is received the balance will be carried forward or transferred to general funds if required. The balance in the fund for Messy Church and Children’s and Young People work across the Mission Area is £1,012. The balance in general fund at 31.12.21 is £3,264.

The Church in Wales was again very generous in offering Pandemic awards in 2021, the Mission Area qualified for these by paying our parish share on time, abiding by the request to encourage Church offerings to be paid by Gift direct and acting upon the results of the inspections and the advice given afterwards. In 2021 we have received awards of 45% of the parish share in quarters one and two and 30% in quarter 3.

Page 8 of 16

There was a final balance left in the Diocesan fund at the end of 2021, this was split between Churches within the Diocese in the same ratio as the parish share and it was decided at the MMA share meeting to deduct the amount of our award from the total share due for 2022, thus reducing the amount for each of our Churches, the total amount of the final award being £10,051. These awards have been a very welcome and generous contribution to our Churches during a very difficult time. In Autumn of 2021 we were informed by our bank that they would be making charges to our account from 01.02.22, to minimise these charges each Church will be paying the agreed expenses into the bank on a quarterly rather than a monthly basis.

Thanks to Susan Hellen the Gift Aid & GASDS schemes are still running well and HMRC are very quick in paying the refunds over, usually within a few days.

Finally, I would like to thank all the treasurers, gift aid secretaries and all who have given their time freely during another very difficult year.

Mission Area Buildings Sub-Committee Report

The terms of reference of the Buildings Sub-Committee were set by the Mission Area Conference in 2017 with an overall remit ‘to support and advise individually and/or collectively all the church committees in the Mission Area of Mold relating to buildings and properties. The sub-committee has a key role to receive pre-faculty proposals for consideration and comment. This was extended by the Mission Area Conference to the exercise of delegated authority ‘to agree straightforward / run-ofthe-mill faculties to go forward as long as key people have taken part in the discussion.

Four meetings were held during the year, and due to continued restrictions, these have all been electronic. To facilitate the remit of the BSC group and in line with policy agreed by MAC considering the restrictions imposed due to the pandemic, requests for faculty permissions, etc, normally brought to the Buildings Sub-committee were circulated via email including all relevant documentation. Responses were via email and were recorded and held on file. Churches have received their quinquennial reports and are working through the recommended urgent and non-urgent repairs. In addition, permission was granted to Mold to apply for a List B faculty for repairs to their lightning conductor; Treuddyn to apply for a full faculty for hand-rails to be installed at the church entrances and for grip rails to be installed at the main door; and Northop to apply for a faculty to move items to Northop from Northop Hall.

During the year, Rhydymwyn church commenced their re-ordering project, and Nercwys church commenced work on their kitchen/toilet extension. The Buildings Sub-Committee continues to be a most useful and valuable forum for discussion and information exchange on a wide range of issues affecting the church buildings of the Mission Area. While restrictions are in place meetings continue to be electronic. It is intended that going forward, meetings will be a mix of electronic and physical, and the pattern of rotation of meeting venues and visits to cover all the churches in the Mission Area will resume.

Mission Area Messy Church Report

Over the last year the dedicated Messy Team of 6 have been able to continue to offer Messy Church to the whole mission area. It has been a joy to evolve our ideas and activities and to share a passion to be creative in delivering a service to children and families. Generally, this has involved putting together a craft activity bag for each child and delivering these before we all meet on Zoom once a month. There is a theme for each month, and we advertise throughout the mission area and on our face book page.

Alongside zoom services we offered 3 in person sessions. In the summer with games and stories in Gwernaffield, in October we had a wonderful Light Party in Nannerch and in December we held a Christingle service in Mold Church. We now deliver about 40 bags a month, which involves a lot of cutting out, biscuit making, Lego story creating and finding songs that are interactive. The children have shared their crafts on Facebook which has been good to see. We are hoping to start a 10+ group within the mission area and we have been planning for this.

Mold Mission Hub Report

In May 2021 as part of the Diocesan new 5-year strategy St Mary’s Mold was chosen as one of 3 Mission Hubs in the Diocese. The purpose of these hubs is to be centres of mission in their Mission Area and Archdeaconry demonstrating good practice. Each Hub came under the oversight of the Archdeacon, which at the time was Ven John Lomas. However, following his appointment as Bishop of Swansea and Brecon, this role came to the Archdeacon of St Asaph, Ven Andy Grimwood. As part of the planning for the hub, discussions were had regarding the facilities in St Mary’s, Mold and how to improve them. In August 2021 I was appointed as Mission Hub Specialist and licensed on 28[th] November, following which work began to put the Hub team together which will include a stipendiary Curate and Youth Worker.

Rev’d Canon Martin Batchelor, Mission Hub Leader

MISSION AREA VISION

To proclaim the Gospel of Christ and the beliefs of the Christian faith, to maintain the worship of God, and to inspire in all persons a love for Christ, a passion for righteousness, and a consciousness of their duties to God and their fellow human beings. We pledge our lives to Christ and covenant with each other to demonstrate His Spirit through worship, witnessing, and ministry to the needs of the people of these churches and our communities. We will work together across all churches within the MISSION AREA to develop a collaborative approach to mission and worship which supports the wider community.
