Church is also subject to the cost-of-living crisis facing the nation. Inflation Is

pension costs and rises In Nat5onal insurance costs are al50 impacting on our

Trustees will continue to monitor the situation closely. Nevertheless, with God's
grace and providence we pray that our financial Fx)sltion will improve to a point
where we can l¢)ok forward to our income exceeding expenditure and the Church's
flnancial posltion becorning sustainable for the long term. We must pray that God
will guide us and continue to provlde resources to build his Church in this
