Annual Report for 2022-2023 Bro Ystumanner Ministry Area Council (MAC) Reported at Annual Vestry Meeting 25/04/2023
Annual Report
And Jesus said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the good news to the whole creation.’ Mark 16:12
April 25[th] is the feast day of St Mark, the evangelist, whose fast-paced gospel gets across the urgency of Jesus’ message of love, and compassionate ministry to a broken and hurting world. Our VOW as Bro Ystumanner Ministry Area continues to be making God’s love God’s love Visible in our churches and communities and beyond through Outreach tailored for the uniqueness of each place, that is grounded in our Worship together. In this Easter season we renew our commitment to Jesus’ call to share the good news not only with our fellow human beings, but in the context of the current climate crisis, with all of creation.
Worship and Ministry
As we look back over this last year we give thanks for signs of renewal and growth, as we have seen the churches settling into new post-Covid patterns of worship, and welcoming back more friends and visitors. Services began again in Llangelynnin Old Church in 2022 for the first time since 2019, with monthly services over the summer months, and a packed Christmas Eve Candlelit Carol service. The first monthly service at St Catherine’s Church in Arthog on Advent Sunday 2022 celebrated its removal from the closed church process and was a testament to the commitment of the community to support the church. With about 20 regularly attending monthly services, we look forward to developing the mission and ministry in that community. A variety of ecumenical services and events have shown the unity and friendship across different denominations and witness to the love of Christ which we share. It has also been good to see weddings and baptisms slowly picking up again.
Warmer Winter Wednesdays at St Cadfan’s Church in Tywyn was started in November 2022 as a response to the rise in heating costs, but its importance as a place of friendship and support is evident in its continuation into the Spring and Summer as Welcome Wednesdays. The regular Monday Coffee Mornings on Easter Bank Holiday Monday and through the summer in St Cadfan’s Church, Tywyn also restarted for the first time since 2019. With the introduction of Coffee Mornings in St Peter ad Vincula, Pennal as well, there have been regular spaces for people to be welcomed to enjoy the company and support of others. There has also been encouragement from events, such as the Llwyngwril Summer Fete, successfully restarting after a 3 year break due to Covid, being well-supported and bringing together a good number of locals and visitors. It’s also been good to get back to taking Home Communion to individuals and Care Homes
Work with children and young people has picked up again with Messy Church in Aberdyfi restarting in April 2022, and Open the Book in Ysgol Penybryn, assemblies and services with Ysgol Pennal, and The Ark and Aftershock after-school clubs in Fairbourne getting back to normal. Regular All Age Services in four of the churches provide a more informal space for worship and also see some of our children and young people developing in their ministry as they contribute to the services in different ways.
Such a rich diversity of worship and ministry is only possible with the hard-work and commitment of everyone in our churches, and those who support the work of our churches. Therefore, I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere thanks to all those who contribute to the life and ministry of our Bro Ystumanner Ministry Area. We pray that God will continue bless us as we seek to love and serve him.

Looking Ahead
As we look to the future, there are more possibilities and opportunities than we have the people or finances for. We are already stretched in terms of not having enough people to fill current roles and posts, and many people are doing more than is comfortable. Therefore, we do need to pray for ‘more labourers’. However, we will also need to be discerning in what we choose to do and take forward.
Thanks to everyone’s hard work and generosity we were able to pay our 2022 Bishop’s Ministry Fund (BMF) of £60,000 in full. Thank you. The BMF for 2023 is £65,300. This will be a challenge. Even assuming the churches can reach the commitments they have made, we will still fall short of this total. Therefore, we need to be as effective as we can in our giving, encourage new supporters, and figure out creative ways of fundraising.
Although we do face significant challenges now, and in the future, our churches are still witnessing to the risen life of our Lord Jesus Christ, so we give thanks and continue to trust in the God who brings renewal, restoration, growth, and abundant life.
Appendix - Building Issues
There are various on-going building issues across the churches. These have been difficult to deal with due to lack of people with sufficient time and expertise to sort them out, the difficulties of figuring out and going through the correct processes and procedures, and the challenges of funding the work. Therefore, progress on many of them has stalled or is very slow. The Diocese is in the process of appointing three officers – one for each Synod – to help churches deal with building issues, including applying for faculties, so hopefully it will soon be possible to draw on their support to make speedier progress.

Eco Ystumaner Report
The big news, as most of you will know, has been the granting of a Bronze Eco Church Award to St. Cadfan’s, on 22[nd] September last year. The Award specified our success in the following areas: Worship and Teaching, Management of Buildings and Land, Community and Global Engagement, and Lifestyle. This was a tremendously encouraging happening, and whets our appetite for further work. This is all the greater, because there were some areas, notably Worship and Teaching, where our record would have been sufficient for a Gold Award. As it is, we continue to look at ways of making our building “greener”, and this interest overlaps to a great extent with the work of the Building Pilgrimage Group.
St. Cadfan’s, as a Grade One listed church, naturally has certain complications in its attempts to reduce its carbon footprint. Nevertheless, as time moves on, public awareness of the urgency of taking action is increasing, and there is even a strong possibility that installing solar panels on the roof of the church would not fall foul of Cadw and the planning authorities.
One piece of good news is that through our membership of the Parish Buying system, we are getting the greenest energy supply available, and that our electricity is coming this year from the Hornsea 1 Windfarm. The only exception to this is our supply through our night meter, which Roger Whitehouse is still trying to have transferred from an extremely uncooperative present supplier.
I have mentioned the gradual shift in public opinion on Climate Change, and Paul Inman and I have recently taken part in seminars organised by Eco Church and Tear Fund. At both, we were urged to get our churches to declare a Climate Emergency. This is a largely symbolic action, but one which will grab headlines, and tell the world outside that our churches are taking Climate Change seriously. While it would be quite in order for our individual churches to take this action, I suggest that it would have considerable impact if such a declaration were to be made at this meeting by the whole MAC.

Building Pilgrimage Group Report
The group has continued to meet regularly taking forward the Stones Shout Out and Llan projects, in conjunction with the diocese, in order to restore and develop St Cadfan’s Church for use as a Pilgrimage Centre. In the last year we have explored issues regarding disabled access with relevant users, and integrated into the new Governance Model for the Stones Shout Out project, with Rev. Ruth Hansford as the Senior User and Fiona Covington-Mann as the assistant Project Manager (until 2025). We are also grateful to Fiona for taking the minutes for our meetings.
The beginning of March 2022 saw the very well-attended and successful launch of the Welsh Literary Project on the Cadfan Way at St Cadfan’s, Church. This included creative workshops with children from Ysgol Penybryn. The second Welsh Literary Project was held at Llangelynnin Old Church on the first weekend of May with a creative workshop with children from Ysgol Craig y Deryn, including a visit to the church and churchyard. A video filmed at the church could be accessed on-line on the Saturday, and the first Evening Prayer Service at the church since 2019 was held on the Sunday, where Sion Aled, one of the poets in residence for the project, preached bilingually.
Over the summer and autumn we had an exhibition in St Cadfan’s Church exploring the Cadfan Way through the photos of Jean Napier. In December Jean gave a very well-received talk and slide-show about places to visit along the new pilgrimage route following the publication of her new book The Cadfan Way: A Journey from Tywyn to Bardsey .
The diocese had hoped to submit the Stones Shout Out project application to the National Lottery Heritage Fund in November 2022, but did not have all the documentation required quite ready. The application for the Phase 1 Development Phase was therefore submitted in February 2023, expecting to hear a decision at the end of June 2023. If the grant for Phase 1 is awarded, we will then enter a consultation period over the summer and autumn. To this end, the Building Pilgrimage group are currently putting together an exhibition of the plans for Stones Shout Out and Llan projects, and will have some consultation events over the summer and autumn period to gather feedback and ideas.
Part of the Stones Shout Out plans including raising the floor of the nave and embedding a labyrinth in the new floor at the back of the nave for people to use as their own pilgrimage tool. As preparation for this, we have commissioned and now received a canvas labyrinth that will be used for workshops and stewarded use. Rev. Ruth is attending a retreat using the labyrinth at St Beuno’s Retreat Centre in May 2023 to learn more.

Safeguarding Report
Safeguarding is the responsibility of every single person and so it is important that we continue to undertake the necessary and obligatory training required by the Church in Wales. It is imperative that should any safeguarding issues come to light, then they must be reported. Remember too that historic cases can still be investigated, Remember too that anyone knowingly who does not report a safeguarding issue is as guilty as the perpetrator.
Many people have already completed Module ‘A’ Safeguarding training, (which is online) and Module ‘B’, which is face to face and have informed me of this. Grateful thanks to all who have done so.
I have requested from the lead Safeguarding Officer, Emma Leighton Jones, that she considers providing an online Zoom Module ‘B’ during an evening. I believe that this is now in the pipeline for next term (see below). This should be an easier option for those who work full time or who have young families.

The Church People is an organisation that has been developed to help with DBS, who requires it within the Church and at what level. We await further information from them and once this is up and running, then we will be able to update our records.
I have given notice that this will be my last year as the Ministry Area Safeguarding Officer so somebody will need to take up this position from April 2024.
In the meantime, the Safeguarding Policy requires reviewing at this meeting. Please do ensure that these policy documents are on display and visible in each of our churches in our Ministry Area.
