2022 Year End Finance – Annual Report
This is a very different year end to last year!
When our budget for 2022 was prepared we were aware that the on-going effects of the pandemic could deplete our finances. In 2021 we were able to make use of the government furlough scheme of £10,188. However, in 2022 we have had to rely solely on our reserves to meet the cost of our £20,000 deficit, as our voluntary giving has reduced even further. The increased cost of living has of course taken its toll worldwide.
Our total income for the year ending 31[st] December 2022 was £102,451 and our total expenditure £122,760.
The largest amount in our budget was salaries and their associated costs. We honoured our commitments to our staff - Pastor, Administrator and Cleaner, despite our monthly giving being drastically reduced. Following Graeme’s notice to retire, consultation meetings were held towards the end of the year where it was made clear that if we wish to employ a full time person in our church we would need to be able to fund this (approximately £48,000).
We have also honoured our commitments to Missionary giving for the year:- £1,500 to HEBA home missions, £5,588 to CAP, £7,833 to BYSP and £2,400 to Nicky Brand. In addition to the Specific Gifts raised of £2,179.75 for King’s Kids Christmas appeal, £315 for CAP Christmas Hampers, £150 for Food Bank and £1,085 raised for Graeme’s retirement gift.
In 2022 it was also necessary to carry out some urgent structural work on the Church roof and Number 7 roof and gutters, staircase and window lintels amounting to £9,940. Following our recent quinquennial inspection we now also need to have the Church electrical wiring inspected. I am hoping that we will be able to carry out much of the other necessary work ourselves without incurring too much cost (volunteers are very welcome!).
For some time now the Lord has been reminding me of Hebrews 10:23-25 – ‘Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for He who promised is faithful. And let us consider how we may spur one another on to love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day approaching.’
