**Birkenhead Priory Parish - Annual Report for APCM 2024** 

## **Aims and purposes** 

The Birkenhead Priory PCC has the responsibility of cooperating with the Vicar in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. The PCC is also specifically responsible for the maintenance of the church and community centre at Christ the King, Beckwith Street, Birkenhead and the Chapter House, Birkenhead Priory. 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

The PCC is committed to reaching out to as many people as possible with the Good News of Jesus Christ. We seek to do this is practical ways, meeting the various needs of those within our parish where we are able, and by sharing our life-changing faith in Jesus with our community wherever we can. When planning our activities for the year, we have considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the supplementary guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. We continue to abide by the Safeguarding Policies and Procedures of the Church of England for safeguarding children and vulnerable adults. 

We seek to organise our life and worship in such a way as to be faithful to our identity as children of God, whilst welcoming all within our community to become part of our worshipping family. We are committed to helping people not only find faith, but also to live out their faith through: 

- worship and prayer together, studying God’s word and growing deeper together in our faith 

- providing various points of practical help for the community through The Oak Community Project and other forms of outreach, as an expression of gratitude for the love we have received from God which we pass on to our neighbour 

- providing pastoral care for all those in our parish and church family 

- working with and supporting other organisations that seek to bring benefit to our local community, including our local schools. 

To facilitate this work, it is important that we maintain the fabric of our two buildings, and we are grateful to those who help with their ongoing upkeep, particularly our church wardens. 

## **How we’ve been doing** 

As the effects of COVID-19 become less over time, we have faced the subsequent challenge of the cost-ofliving crisis which has affected so many in our community and us as a church. In all of this we have continued to grow, and God’s grace and kindness has been evident amongst us as we have continued to minister to each other and to our community. 

This has included: 

## **Worship:** 

Due to the increased cost of gas and electricity we began the year meeting for worship each week in St Anne’s Room – our Community Room (smaller and easier to heat). Our children and young people meet in St Peter’s room for their own learning during our services - but beginning and ending the service in worship together with the rest of the congregation. We are very grateful to those who continue to lead the children’s work each week and encourage them in their faith, and for the space this gives to parents to engage in worship themselves. We continued meeting in St Anne’s room until Palm Sunday, when we processed from St Anne’s Room, out along the streets with palm branches and a live donkey back into our 



main worship area. We have met for worship in our main worship space for the remainder of the year. One reason for this is that when all our congregation comes together we are now too many to fit into St Anne’s room, which has been a positive problem to have. We have continued to stream our services via Zoom each week, as there are those who for various reasons are only able to join us in that way. We continue to post these services on YouTube most weeks - occasionally technology has proved unreliable and services have failed to stream or be recorded. We have continued to update and upgrade our PA system in St Anne’s Room in order to facilitate our worship in that space. 

In response to the generally positive experience of coming together for worship in St Anne’s Room we have changed our service pattern. One the first Sunday of the month we continue to meet at the Priory Chapel at 9am for a said BCP Communion service. This traditional style of service has been appreciated by a good number of people from with our church family and by some who are new to us. Following this service we then hold our 10.30am service at Christ the King Church in St Anne’s Room around small tables, with activities on the tables available for all. It is a much more family friendly, interactive service which has been well received and been a welcoming environment for new families to join us. There is no children’s group on these Sundays. Consequently, our numbers at the Priory Chapel service have increased, together with our numbers back at Christ the King increasing on these Sundays. 

We continue to share communion by intinction rather than the common cup, and to use the screen for worship with printed materials available for those who prefer. We use mostly iSingWorship for our music. We have also recommenced offering prayer ministry during our main worship service, during Communion. 

On 3[rd] May we celebrated the licensing of our Curate, Revd. Debbie Wilkinson into the position of Associate Minster to Birkenhead Priory Parish, with a particular remit to establish a new worshipping community on the Wirral Waters development in Birkenhead. This five-year post, funded by the Diocese of Chester through the Strategic Ministry Fund is a bold move, as most of the development is yet to materialise. However, as the Priory Chapel has been present in Birkenhead since before the Town began, so The Well (the name given to the Wirral Waters Church) is present before the community arrives, giving a positive Christian presence to welcome each person into the area and prepare the ground through regular prayer and worship. Please see Debbie’s report for further details. 

At the same service in May Captain James Wilkinson was licensed as Church Army Evangelist to Birkenhead Priory Parish who brings a great deal of experience and passion for communicating the gospel in relevant ways to our community and opens up significant opportunities for us as a parish. 

Both these events marked a new and exciting step for our parish and we look forward to all that God will do in and through Debbie and James. 

We continue to be blessed in worship by a ministry team comprising Paul our vicar, Debbie our Associate Minister, Laura our reader, Nigel our retired priest, and a growing number of church members who lead prayers and bible readings and who facilitate worship taking place online and in our church building through welcome and organisation.  We are grateful to Mark for managing our technology each week and those who are being trained up to assist in that. 

Throughout 2023 we have been approached by the Diocese of Chester to welcome two new curates into Birkenhead Priory Parish starting in summer 2024. We look forward to their ministry in due course. 

Through Lent we followed Paula Gooder’s ‘Lentwise’ series through in person bible studies which we held at the vicarage in order to save putting on the heating in our church building. Similarly, Women’s Group relocated to the vicarage over the winter, taking advantage of the wood-burning stove! During October we held a bible study journeying through Acts, using Beki Rogers ‘Church: What we can learn from Acts’. 



During Advent we followed Paula Gooder’s book ‘The Meaning is in the Waiting’ in quiet, reflective sessions at the Priory Chapel which were then further explored in our Sunday services. 

In 2023 we provided a programme for reading through the Old Testament, Psalms and Proverbs together as a church, with a plan provided each month to guide us through the readings. Not everyone manages it, but it is appreciated by many. 

We currently have 83 members on the electoral roll of the parish, of whom 31 are resident within the parish and 52 are resident outside the parish. This represents a growth of 4 from the previous year. 

## **Prayer:** 

We continued to meet online (Zoom) for Evening Prayer each Thursday until the Autumn. We then started up a monthly prayer meeting in person at Christ the King Church at 4pm on the first Sunday of each month. 

The Priory Night Watch group continues to meet once a month in the Priory Chapel to pray for Birkenhead and the needs of the parish. 

## **Community Outreach:** 

Our Community Project has continued to serve many from within our community and further afield in a variety of ways but principally at this time through food provision. We are so grateful for the many volunteers who make this ministry possible under the guidance of Denise, our Community and Family Worker. Our Community Hub welcomes in member of our community and partner organisations on a Tuesday and Wednesday and continues to grow busier and busier. Our social supermarket has also begun opening on a Thursday also. Please see the Community Project report for more information. 

We continue to minister in our local schools, Priory School (our church school), Cathcart school and more recently Kilgarth School. It is a great privilege to share faith with the children and their families wherever possible, both through participation in the life of the schools and in welcoming them into church for services and other activities. Please see our schools report for more information. 

Our Friendship Group, Women’s Group, Churches Together involvement, Social and Fellowship group all continue their ministry. 

Our Men’s Breakfast continues at Christ the King church meeting on the first Saturday of each month. This incorporates a great breakfast, chance to chat together and someone sharing their experience of the Christian journey. Our numbers continue to increase, and we have had some very powerful and impactful testimonies that have spoken deeply into the lives of those listening. 

Several times during 2023 we have held ‘Church and Community Clean-Up days’. Volunteers from the church and local community have come together to look after our church grounds and tidy up areas of our local community. We have benefitted from Wirral Borough Council collecting all the rubbish gathered. This is an important part of our witness to our local community, our stewardship of what God has given us and taking our part in changing the narrative of Birkenhead – this is a beautiful place that is loved and cared for. 

Narcotics Anonymous continue to use our building for a meeting once a week. 

Rather than give Easter gifts, this year we ran an Easter Egg Hunt which took families on a journey from our church, through the community, park and back to church for crafts and refreshments. It was very well received. We also hosted a Light Party at Christ the King Church on Halloween and a Bonfire Night party at 



the Vicarage, both of which were very well attended and continued to develop our relationships with families from our community and the school gate. 

At Christmas we distributed small gifts to 800 households in our community - a bag of sweets with a message from the church, which were well received. A number of people from our community comment that they enjoy getting these through each year. 

In December we held a Community Christmas Fair at Christ the King which was very well attended by the community and we welcomed stall holders from local charities. 

## **Pastoral** : 

Our visiting the bereaved, sick and housebound and Home Communions has continued through the year. 

During 2023 we celebrated eight children and one adult being baptised at Christ the King church. We have celebrated four weddings during 2023, all at the Priory Chapel. We have led four funerals during the year and one interment of ashes and supported families through their different experiences of grief. 

## **Looking Ahead** 

As a church, community and wider society we continue to face a number of challenges from different directions. However in all of this we continue to see God’s provision, strengthening and blessing as a church. It is imperative that we continue to look with courage, creativity and conviction at the opportunities in front of us and seek the wisdom and guidance of the Holy Spirit as we discern what is for now, what is for another time, or what is not to be. We wait with anticipation our new curates sharing in ministry at our church and bringing their Spirit filled gifts, talent and insights. Having obtained funding in partnership with Wirral Borough Council, we look forward to remedial work taking place on the Priory Chapel that will secure the well-being of that building for many years to come. We must continue to be imaginative in how we use and care for our buildings and grounds, so that they can be a place of welcome and hospitality to all who God brings to us. We continue to see new people, individuals and families, join our worshipping community and the links between church and Community Project grow and deepen. We must continue to underpin this with prayer as we seek God’s face and learn to hear his voice more clearly. 

As was said last year, we continue to go through a period of change and growth and with that come many challenges as well as many joys. We trust that through obedience and faithfulness and remaining rooted in God with our eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, we will continue to be blessed and to bring blessing to those around us as we seek to love God and love our neighbour, to the glory of God.

## **Financial Position:** 

## **Executive Summary** 

Analysis of the data show that BPP’s net income vs. expenditure is in all cases in a satisfying position which means that the financial management of the church’s funds can be considered to be robust and fit for purpose. 

## **Balance sheets** 

The balance sheets, as with any financial statement, records the net worth which as of 31st December 2023 stands at **£352,226.81** much of which is monies which has been bequest to the parish for specific purposes and therefore cannot be used to meet day-to-day operating costs. 

The balance sheets for 2023 demonstrate that the church is in a relatively healthy position in terms of cash flow (income vs. expenditure) and that the day-to-day running costs are being met. 



As in previous years there are reserves, some of which can be drawn upon but the majority of these funds are held for specific purposes. 

## **Banking Reserve Policy** 

With the introduction of a new financial policy document, a formalised approach to a banking reserve policy has been set out as indicated below.  This is to ensure prudent financial management of existing funds and to ensure contingencies are in place to allow BPP’s Finance team to respond effectively to unexpected short term issues. 

- Current accounts 

   - It is recommended that the BPP current account and Lifeskills (TOCP) account have a minimum operating of balance of £5k. 

   - If either of these accounts fall beneath these limits then the PCC should be consulted as to whether any short term ‘top up’ or transfer of funds from the reserve account can be made. 

- Reserve account 

   - It is recommended that the BPP reserve account has a minimum balance of £25K available to offset any short term issues with either of the above current accounts. 

   - Of the above £25K, £10K is specifically designated for covering salary costs of BPP employed staff in the event of other funding not being available. 

The above report and following financial statements were approved by Birkenhead Priory Parochial Church Council at a meeting on Tuesday 2[nd] April 2024 

Signed: 


Revd Paul Bentley, Chair 

On behalf of Birkenhead Priory Parish Parochial Church Council.
