Accounts for the Year Ended 31st December 2020
Report of the Trustees
The trustees present their annual report and the accounts for the year ended 31st December 2020.
On 1st January 2020, all assets and liabilities of Barnwell Baptist Church (registered charity number 1148760) were transferred to Barnwell Baptist Church CIO (registered charity number 1178568).
Objects and Activities
As we look back over 2020, we see a year that has been like no other due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Nonetheless, we are grateful for God’s continued faithfulness and provision for our Church. As of 31st December, our membership was 39.
However, in late March the pandemic struck, and the church was unable to meet in person. We then switched to pre-recording the service and providing this online to church members. All other church activities (small groups, prayer meetings and leadership meetings) also moved online (Zoom).
The lockdown had a big impact on church life and to make sure people were connected we increased the frequency of small group meetings. We also produced short videos “lessons from Lockdown” a video advent calendar and guided prayers. In December we ran 6 short carol services in the church car park using the church marquees. These were open sided and the chairs well-spaced. Despite the variable weather the services popular and well attended.
The pandemic and the disruption it caused exacerbated needs in the community. The church responded to this, and the building was used to run a food hub which was set up by Abbey People. This was open 6 days a week for most of 2020, changing to 4 days a week in October. Stuart was very heavily involved in this and supporting the church and the local community.
We are continuing to work with a group of Christian property developers and are planning to rebuild the Church. This is a complex but exciting project.
The church has been praying for several years about establishing a congregation on the Marleigh development which is to be built close to the church on the outskirts of Cambridge. In 2020 Barnwell Baptist began the process of appointing a new minster to work on Marleigh. An important step was the adoption of a Church Profile in December 2020.
Our overarching aim remains to encourage discipleship within the Church and reach those in the area with the Gospel. Despite the challenges we have much to give thanks for and continue to trust that in 2021 God will meet all our needs as He leads us in His ways.
This report was approved by the board of trustees on 7th September 2021 and signed on their behalf.
