## **Trustee Report** 

From the desk of the Vicar and MA Leader 

## Easter Vestry Report 

The word ‘unprecedented’ is one that has been used a lot during 2020. The outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic in late 2019 turned our way of living upside down. You would have got exceptionally long odds for suggesting that you could be reminded in a bank to wear a mask. Similarly at the end of 2019, no one would have suggested that churches and chapels from Holyhead to Cardiff would be closed on Easter Day. 

In Bro Eleth, we have found ourselves unable to meet in the usual way for most of the year. We have held meetings on-line as a MA or as part of our Synod. Communication has been done in a hybrid way: by post, email or on the phone. This has meant that prayer resources and Bible readings have been produced, which I trust has provided some sort of spiritual sustenance throughout the year. For a period of three months, church buildings began to open. I could not have done this without the support of the Revd Pauline Jones and the small team of stewards. 

I have met online with a small group of Trustees (members of the MAC) as we have endeavoured to ensure that the united parish is administered well. I am aware that local wardens have been active in checking church buildings and treasurers of some churches sought to ensure that people’s contributions to church finances have been received. 

Going forward the MA faces several challenges that the pandemic has shown up. 

One of the most obvious ones is the issue of finance. Bills have still had to be paid and commitments to the wider church have had to be met during the pandemic. As a group of churches, we are reliant on money put on the plate, fundraising and spending money that has been accumulated in previous years. Other MAs have a greater number of people paying by direct debit than we do. Then again, our congregation numbers seem to be smaller. Further, we do tend to see money as belonging to a specific church rather than being able to be used for the good of all. I am not talking about specific legacies, but our general pot. One colleague tells me that in their united parish they have reduced the number of accounts from over 40 to just 2. Money is still ringfenced where appropriate. We have been reluctant to consider. In 2021, we need to act on this. There is a danger otherwise of not being able to spend money wisely and the whole united parish capsizing financially. I believe money belongs to God in the final analysis. It is not ours to be kept for ourselves. My dad, who was an electrician on a basic salary taught me this, putting his tithe in the envelope before handing the rest to my mother. 

Bro Eleth has been structured as individual churches cherishing independence rather than interdependence. The small group of MAC members who have met online have tried to look after the whole. MAC members are not representatives of individual churches, but firstly leaders of the whole.  I am grateful to each other who has walked alongside me. 

But by far bigger a problem is our dwindling numbers. We have taken the step of closing four church buildings in 2020. This is not for financial reasons, but because we want to refocus our mission to reach people with the good news of Jesus. We sadly must face the fact that most of our friends and neighbours do not know the story of Jesus, and if someone in their 70s came into a church service they would find it nearly as bewildering at times as someone in their teenage years. With our limited financial and people resources, we cannot keep going the way we were before the pandemic struck, even if this would be what we might like. This does not mean that traditional church services cannot happen, but there needs to be an emphasis on doing something different alongside. Such may not be true in all places, but it is certainly the case in Llannerchymedd and Amlwch.

I am aware that many believe that evangelism belongs to the vicar. This is not the case. My wife is away this week working on the vaccine trials near Wrexham. It is important work. Data needs to be collected so that we know about the longevity of the vaccines. With evangelism, we know that more people come to worship or to a course like Alpha because they are invited to by their friends rather than anything the vicar might say. We have the data for this for a good number of years. Similarly, the data is available that shows that churches where members are involved in small groups tend to be growing. This is true in Wales as well as England, and true in rural as well as urban areas. 

It has been said to me that church buildings are ‘the icons and centres of prayer and worship in a community’. This is undoubtedly true. They should also be places where the Christian story is told, and too often this has not been the case. They should be places of welcome for all, and this is true in some of our buildings, but not in others. 2021 will present challenges that cannot be ignored. We cannot keep spending more than we get in, nor can some of our churches not pay their fair share. Given that it is the Trustees of the MA who will be held responsible for this, we must further consolidate the accounts. Further, each place of worship needs to be a place of welcome and growth. 

I am reminded of an old mission hymn that I knew far more years ago that I care to remember. It was taught to me by a missionary who served in Thailand. 

How good is the God we adore! Our faithful, unchangeable friend: his love is as great as his pow'r and knows neither knows measure nor end. 

For Christ is the first and the last; his Spirit will guide us safe home; we'll praise him for all that is past and trust him for all that's to come. 

I hope we can be grateful for all that God has done in our lives and in the life of our communities. I pray that we might embrace all that God offers in the year that lies ahead,

**MA Treasurer’s Report and Financial Reports for the Period 1[st] January 2021 to 31[st] December 2021** 

## **Introduction** 

This financial year started with restrictions to church services due to the COVID pandemic. The previous year was worse in terms of the number of weeks that services could not be held and therefore it was expected that the Ministry Area’s main source of income would improve in 2021. This was indeed the case. Although as more services were introduced some members of the congregation were either shielding or reticent to attend the church due to fear of catching the virus. This was understandable considering the average age of the congregation. Despite a campaign of attempting to persuade our congregations to contribute financially via the Church in Wales gift aid scheme it become clear that most members prefer to make their monetary contribution by putting it on the plate when attending church. 

The main financial reports are listed in this report. However, I wish to focus on the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) and the Balance Sheet. It should be noted that the Analysis of Income and Expenditure report is a summary of the SOFA report so it is possible to drill down using that report to investigate how a particular total is made up. 

## **Income and Expenditure** 

The main points to make in 2021 are as follows :- 

- It was necessary to make repairs to the tower at St Eleth due to water ingress at a cost to Bro Eleth of £12,500. Other repairs to churches included those in Llaneilian, Llanwellwyfo and minor repairs to the rental property in Llanerch-y-medd, 

- The modern equivalent of the Diocesan share, now renamed to the Bishops Ministry Fund or BMF, was fully paid up and included arrears of £11,000. However, due to the four closed churches the diocese gave us an allowance of £10,000. The amount of BMF paid in this year amounted to £45,339. Being up to date with the BMF has its benefits for Bro Eleth. As we are now fully paid up, we are allowed to apply for grants from the diocese where appropriate, 

- Llanwenllwyfo received a legacy of £15k with respect to the maintenance of that particular church. Due to the strict wording in the will, this money has been placed in a restricted fund. 

- Llanfihangel Tre’r Beirdd’s assets were transferred to Bro Eleth Central in this year. Any funds classified by this church as restricted funds have been preserved as restricted funds. Bro Eleth is now responsible for the two churchyard funds at this church. The transfer of assets for the other closed churches is targeted for completion in 2022, 

- Income from charitable activities showed an increase of almost £2,000 due to an unfortunate increase in burials in 2021. However, on a more positive note wedding fees increased on 2020 as couples who had held off on their wedding plans in 2020 were able to fulfil their dream in 2021, 

- Dividends, investment income and bank and building society interest was down from 2020 by £1,800 due to low interest, poor economic climate and us having to raid reserves to pay for operational costs, 

- General operating costs such as gas and electricity were down significantly due to lockdown of the churches,

## **Balance Sheet** 

The chart below represents a summary of the balance sheet for the year ending 31/12/21 and a comparison with the previous year. 


- The total of all funds belonging to Bro Eleth increased year on year by £20.001.03 to a total of £1,006,478.72, 

- The restricted funds, which are mostly held by the Representative Body in Cardiff, increased by £53,276. It needs to be stressed here that the money in these funds cannot be used for any other purposes other than those specified in the legally binding provisions such as churchyard funds or specific building funds, 

- The table shows that 

   - Restricted and Endowment funds represent 72.8% of the total funds, 

   - Unregistered and Designated, i.e. the amount available to be spent without restriction, 27.3% or £274,191.

## **Conclusion** 

Church attendance has improved during 2021 and with the advent of our new Ministry Area Leader it is hoped that congregations covering all ages will grow and methods of providing missional services to our community will be explored and implemented. 

As we enter a new normal period following the COVID restrictions, it is hoped that the trustees and indeed all congregational members will assist in fund raising at the parochial church level and the Ministry Area level. We are entering an era of high inflation and it is inevitable that operational costs are going to increase significantly. We do have reserves but to protect these resources we need to find new ways to generate more income. 

Each church treasurer has agreed to look at their savings and determine if there is a way of increasing their returns in order to counter the effects of cost inflation. 

I wish to take this opportunity to thank all church treasurers for their support and diligence throughout this past year. Without their assistance it would be very difficult if not impossible to draw up a set of consolidated accounts. 

Ivor John Williams 

Bro Eleth Ministry Area Treasurer
