The PCC is also spirttually responsible tor the maintenance of the church. The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our church and to become part of our parlsh communlty at Tong. The PCC maintains an overview of worship throughout the parish and makes suggestions on how our services can involve the rnany groups that live within our parish. Our seNce5 and worship put faith into practice through prayer, scripture. music and sacrament. Also, through nonsacramental activitie5 of hospitality and fellowship we aim to reach non churched members ofthe communlty. lic Ben The trustees of the PCC are aware of the Charity C£Jmmission's guidance on public benefrt in The Advancement of Religion forthe Public Benefrt and have had regard to it in their administration of the Charity. Thetrustees believethat, bypromotingthe work of the Church of England In the Ecclesiastical Parish of Ton& it helps to promote the whole misslon of the Church (pastoral. evangelistlc, Social and ecumenicall more effectively. within the Ecclesiastical Parish. and that in doing so it provides a benefit to the public bv: Providin8 facilrf(ies for public worshipi pastoral care and spiritual. moral and intellectlsal development, both for its members and for anyone who wishes to benefit from what the Church offers,. and Promotirbg Christian values and service by members of the Church In and to their communsties, to the benefft of indivldua15 and society a5 a vthole Vicarfs Re ort 2025 It is now approaching 18 months Sin Rev Pippa left St Bartholomew's for a very well-earned retirement. I, Jess and. more recently Valerie, have continued to hold the team and the congregatlon together as we patiently awalt a pèrmanent replacementfor such a wonderful priest and guardian of this Parish. Things go on as nom)al and we have all been pleased to see that our congregation numbers have not dwindled, on the contrary* numbers are up and we are pleased to welcome new families into our midst and the growth in younger members of the congregatlon glve us great hope for the future of worship in this pla. As you all know we have worked hard wlth others to raise money forthe restoration of the tombs, work on which is ongoing and will be rekN)rted on within these accounts by Fred Myer5cough. who ha5 worked tirelessly alongside Sally Beard and the other members of the team to progress and monitor thi5 project. We can all see in church the result of their labours a5 our hlstori¢ tombs emerge forthe darkness of dirt over the centuries.
We have had the privilege of h05ting slx weddings thls year, a record In modern times I believe, and have also celebrated one bapttsm. Inevitable we have also had funerals during the year, six in total and notable we have said goodbye to especially important and loved members of our congregation. Mary Hutthinson, David Holding Rose Green, David Hallchurch and Barbara Bulley. Jess also presided at the funeral of lan Bailev, having also presided at hi5 weddlng In Compton hospice earlier on in the year, having been dlagnosed with temiinal cancer. The usual and unusual round of fixtures at Tong included some tours with the trusty Christine Oeane in char8e, to whom we owe a great debt of gratitude together wlth the other m*mbers of the team. We welcomed country kids, nursery into church for their Easter Bonnet parade and the Christmas nativity. Then there was SafeBuarding trainiThg for the team. weekly Staff meetlngs at Shifnal, PCC meètings, APCM, and continuing pastoral care for the sick. We had the di5appolntment of having to put our plans for a visitpr centre and tollet facilities on hold as cost estimates and 8overnment plans for vat rises, meant that if was not feaslble at thi5 time. We continue to pray that thing5 will change to enable us to make progre55 In the coming months and years to improve the facilities that we offer to so many visitors. We have had fundraising events, as I have already mentloned, notable the classic car Rally whrch this vear was a fantastic event which raised much need funds and my ihanks go to Mick Pilsbury, Max Owen Ruth Kerrigan ènd all of their volunteers who worked so hard to make it such a wonderful day. For me St. Bartholomew's this year has been about God at work in the people he continues to send to assist in the work here. Special thanks BO to Revd Jess and Revd Valerle who have ass15ted me wlth services. To our church wardens Robert Kerri8an and Sandy Bakerfor thelr outstanding work.

Church Warden5 Re 0rt2025 Well once again it has been an interegtlng year for Tong church. The good news is that our congregation number5 are rernainlng stable with a steady attendance average of 35 to 40 parlshioners. With regard to ongolng projett5 forthe year there has been succes5 and disappointment. The first project forthe provision of a handrai15 at the entraTh path wa5 completed and this ha5 proved a success providing a safe passage for all. The second project was the tea point and toilets lyou may remember me raisin8 this issue last year and the year before et¢.l. Well unfortunately we have to put thls project on hold for the foTe5ee3bl¢ future. This is due to the escalatlllg Costs of the materials and tradesmen required. The c05t has now been estimated at £320,000 plus the governments VAT of 20%164,0001 totalling £384.0110. So for the tlme belng the church will have to rely on the village hall to provide the toilet and caterin8 facllitles. The third project which ig the restoration of the tombs has been successful in that we have completed the first phase of the restorlng process and strttled the account of £30,000. The second phase of the restoratlon wlll hopefully be commencing very soon once we have ralsed sufficient funds to give the go ahead to the restoration team. To help in the fund-raislng process Sally Beard and her team organised a Tong Talk and so far ra15ed the surn of £1,385.92. 5 believe there are more events to come in the new year with regard to the in-depth hlstory of Ton8 and its famou5 associations. Oyr VE day lunch also raised £452.06 held in the village hall, thank you to all who attended this remembrance lunch. This year the Tong tours have raised £3419.94 after paying for the Village Hall hlre so once a8a¢n 8 big thank you to Christine Deane, the tour guides and the ladies who have assisted with the catering to Make the toun a success.
