Vicar’s Report
Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch out your tent curtains
wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your
stakes.’ – Isaiah 54.2 NIV
----- End of picture text -----

I can sum this last year up as a season of ‘stretching.’ Our church has stretched in terms of numbers, reach and depth of discipleship in this past year. All to ensure that people get to know the beating heart of God’s love that we want to share with people so that they can get to know Jesus and his transforming love in their lives.

There have obviously been the big events that have stretched our confidence in evangelism – Festival Teesside, summer fun days, co-ordinated alphas, holiday clubs and Christmas bazaars along with our regular coffee mornings and other activities. We helped make the Festival happen and it was great to see members of St Paul’s in hi-vis jackets at the event as more than 32,000 people heard the Gospel preached. After which we held a successful sports-based holiday club and community fun day, building relationship with people in our community so that they can begin to connect and explore faith in Jesus Christ. We are stretching!

We have seen new Christians coming to faith and celebrated baptisms across the year as young and old alike gave their lives to Jesus. We have seen the launch of Bubble church this year – our fun filled, puppet packed church service for youngsters and their adults – and it has grown considerably. So much so that there are plans in 2025 for this to be twice a month rather than simply once. PCC have also been stretched this year as we became part of the diocesan ‘Health for Growth’ cohort. This looked at various aspects that mark a healthy church, as a result we are beginning to really emphasise the benefits of joining a life group in church. These help to encourage us in our walk with Christ and build friendships that last and go deep.

2024 was also a year tinged with sadness as we said farewell to one of our long standing members, Jim Kane, whose funeral was held at the end of the year. As we look ahead there are still exciting moments of being stretched in 2025: our growth in relationship with God and each other, our growth in impact in the community and our growth in numbers as we continue to see new people encounter Jesus. My prayer is that we can continue to stretch out the tent, that we won’t hold back. Because as we take those steps of faith in 2025 God will be helping us every step of the way.

Warden Report
The Good:
The continued support received from Julie, Dorthy and Tracy when the warden
was acting as default treasurer.
The relief when Zoe stepped in a treasurer at the post APCM PCC meeting.
The joy when Sally agreed to be co-warden (as warden elect) with me since
October.
The wonderful growth we’ve seen in families becoming part of the St Paul’s
family.
The generosity of the established congregation, joyfully making space for the
new.
Happy children in church.
Pastoral care and Safeguarding continue to be well managed and supported.
St Paul’s Church has developed its own forward-looking culture.
Fabric:
The modelling of the proposed partitioning of the chapel from the chancel has
been received favourably.
Discussions with DAC on Hall, Chapel. Chancel, Café and Den works went on until
July. They have agreed in principle the works and format.
It is now hoped that the works to electrical compliance (all areas), Hall heating
and lighting will be completed in August 2025 (after Holiday Club).
Partition and other works to Chapel to follow repairs to “angled window roof”,
drying out and replastering, again a warm weather job.
Café/servery can commence when amendment to an existing faculty is
processed.
The Hole:
We await a response from the Architect to our question “Is there any way to
resolve this issue that doesn’t involve taking legal action against WB
Construction? (WB Construction were the main contractors for the 2020/21
works).

Safeguarding Safeguarding is the responsibility of the whole church and St Paul’s takes safeguarding of its parishioners extremely seriously. We aim to guide and protect all who come to seek a safe place within our community. The PCC have adopted the diocesan safeguarding policy and under diocesan guidance we seek to support, listen to and guide all who need it. We refer to the best service suppliers where necessary and ensure all those who need it are fully and appropriately trained.

What has this entailed over 2024

All staff who are in service are DBS checked and relevant training undertaken for them to safely carry out their role. Concerns reported and given due care within 48 hours of disclosure, checking in and follow-up conversations done.
There have been two safeguarding issues which have safely been addressed, logged and followed thoroughly, and using other agencies correctly. Minor concerns are logged in case follow-up is required.

Durham Diocese along with other Dioceses within the country have moved from paper trails to an online safeguarding hub which ensures that we are transparent with our safeguarding training and issues within the Parish.

Joan Williams, Parish Safeguarding Officer

2024 Report APCM

Children & Youth We long to see the children of this area reached and transformed by the love of God and 2024 has been a great year for this at St Paul’s. We have reached nearly 200 people for Jesus (children and their parents/carers) across our ministries this year. This isn’t including all the school pupils that we see in collective worship and school visits.

----- Start of picture text -----
In church on a Sunday Kids Space ministry grew. Creche launched in December
with Linda and team providing a safe and fun space to nurture faith in under 5s.
Through the week: Baby and Toddler Church reached 42 children. Youth Life
Group reached up to 6. Bubble Church launched in April averaging 7 families plus
team across all ages.
----- End of picture text -----

We loved reaching new people and our work with schools and in events helped us to do that. We work with four schools through assemblies, worship, prayer spaces (with an average of 23 children a week at St Mark’s), and school visits, exploring faith in Jesus together. Events like Festival Teesside, work in Newham Grange Park and Half Time Holiday Club, have extended our reach further. Thanks to Scottsdale Bible Church and Scripture Union for their help with this. Our Holiday Club for 7-11s demonstrated a need for something here. We are planning a new group – called Voyagers – tailored to their needs. Team are gathered and we launch in January 2025. Pray that growth can be sustained with people called into this ministry area who are passionate about reaching children, young people and their families with God’s love and that those exploring faith would go deeper and experience God’s love for themselves. If that is you and God is nudging you to help, talk to me. Lauren Goodrick, Children and Youth Outreach Worker.

Pastoral Care
The pastoral team has continued this year and meets regularly to consider how to
support those in need in our parish.
This year there have been a number of complex pastoral issues that required in-
depth support. As well as starting to take flowers around to people in the church
each week. A big thanks to the whole team who have been a part of this. Please
continue to pray for and encourage them in their calling.

Electoral Roll
This year was a year for a full renewal of our electoral roll, which means that we
throw away the old roll and start again with a brand new roll. This happens every
6 years.
Last year we predicted that our roll of 57 would dip considerably as there were a
number of people who were on the roll who had left during lockdown and never
really come back to the church. Our new roll now stands at 39 - this is actually
really encouraging as it is a higher number than we expected would be on the roll
after our renewal and it doesn’t represent everyone who attends or sees this
church as ‘theirs’.
If you are not on the electoral roll and would like to be please do see Reverend
Paul or Tracy Carson our administrator and they will happily help you to apply.

2024 Report APCM

Curate’s Report I cannot quite believe I have been at St Paul’s for almost two years! Being part of the team here continues to be an amazing privilege. 2024 has been a significant year for me, especially with my ordination to the Priesthood in June. For years, I had been anticipating how it would feel to preside at the table during Holy Communion, and it has quickly become one of my favourite things in the world to do. In August, I served on one of the children’s teams at New Wine Summer Festival, and when I came back, it was almost straight into our kids’ Holiday Club. Both gave me a renewed passion for the church’s work with children, and I was delighted to discover that Lauren also felt that the church was called to start a mid-week group for 7 to 11-year-olds. After gathering the team and much planning, it has been excellent to see Voyagers get off to a solid start in 2025. Alpha has continued to be a highlight. Our Alphas have not been huge, with dozens of people attending. However, they have been significant. Each course has seen multiple people encounter Jesus, particularly on the Holy Spirit away days. Through this, we have seen new families become active parts of our church family. What a joy! Previous participants have been keen to be on the team for future courses, even leading discussion times. Looking to 2025, I am eager to see how I grow as a priest and continue to see what God has planned for St Paul's. Thank you to everyone who has been supporting me on this journey.
