## **St Leonards Baptist Church  Annual report 2022.** 

After the restrictions and challenges of the past few years it was a delight to get back to regular worship and meetings for 2022. 

Sadly the year began and ended with the deaths of  long standing and much loved members – Ame in January and Graham in December. 

We were able to resume many of our pre-pandemic events in the life of the church this year including our Maundy Thursday communion service and our Church Anniversary celebrations. This year we had a talent show which was enjoyed by members of both St Leonards and Wellington Square churches. 

Preaching topics in 2022 included a series reading through Mark’s gospel, 10 weeks considering the life of Moses, and a look through the book of Philippians. We also welcomed some visiting speakers including John, our previous minister who spoke about Bread of Life, the SEBA Project in Strood that he is heading up. 

Our Wednesday Bible Study Group has been well attended throughout the year and a Friday prayer meeting has also been re-established. We have also continued to meet at Wellington Square Baptist Church on the first and third Sundays in the month for a joint evening gathering. 

The plans for a formal amalgamation with Wellington Square have not yet been completed but we are holding joint leaders’ meetings monthly and working together more closely where possible. 

Rev Janet Mardell.
