|Weekly worship services<br>- We have been|

|the church and the community. We have|
|been pleased to see the numbers of|
|attendance grow over the year as we have|
|made connections in the community.|
|Foodbank care packages<br>- We partnered|
|with the school where we meet for services,|
|and donated large food packages for all the|
|families at the school who are known to be|
|in financial need.|
|Children’s church<br>- Children’s church has|
|been one ofthe highlights ofour first year.|
|We have had so many children regularly|
|attending that we have employed children’s|
|workers to run sessions on Sunday|
|mornings. We believe this has enabled us|
|to advance the children’s knowledge and|
|understanding ofthe Christian religion as|
|well as provide them with a safe place to|
|have fun within their community.|
|Midweek support groups<br>- Our mid week|
|support groups have been another point of|
|connection available to anyone within the|
|church. This has helped us to ensure we|
|are fighting loneliness in our community. It|
|has also been one ofthe main ways we|
|have provided pastoral support to|
|attendees as is one of our stated Charitable|
|Purposes.|
