Achlevements and Performance- conllnued
Prayer is the vital foundation for all that we do. We held a prayer week in late January/ earlv
February which Included a prayer walk, an Interactive prayer space as well as events on line and in
the building.
We participated In the Baptlsts Together Consultation on a proposal to amend the Ministerial
Recognition Rules for accredited Minister in respect of marriage. We pray for the BU Council as they
conslder all responses to the Consultation and reach a decision in the Spring of 2024,
2023 has again been a dark year for our world, wlth war In Ukralne, the energy ¢rlsls, rlsln8 world
temperatures, mlllions sufferlng from food shortages and environmental disasters. SO it IS good that
we have continued to support financially the mission organisations and charities shown on Page 3 in
the attached Flnanclal Ststements.
Future Plans
As we go forward in 2024, we want to develop new ways of reachlng out to the community,
connecting with people and sharing God's love wlth them. At the same time, we want to continue to
support all who belong to our Church family. We pray that God's Spirit of wisdom will guide us and
¥row us even more tO8ether In unlty In Christ Jesu5.

Reserves pollcy
Unrestrlcted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in fvrtherance of the

months of annual expenditure which currently equates to £25,000.
The actual figure held at 31 December 202315 £77.616 and Is considered a prudent figure to carry

the General Fund. The Weekly Average Giving figure for 2023 year was £1,128 per week.
