## **Annual Report 2023** 

After registering transform.church as a charity towards the end of 2022, we were able to open a bank account early in 2023. It was clear though that we needed a larger trustee body in order to have the capacity to move the church forwards. To this end, and for the additional purpose of raising the awareness and engagement of Baptist churches with the digital sphere, we hosted three  online  conversations  under  the  banner  of  #DigitalPentecost.  These  generated  an encouraging amount of participation and a number of people who were interested in exploring getting involved with transform.church. 

At our AGM in the autumn we were pleased to expand the trustee body with four new people. Whilst identifying roles and responsibilities for each of these new leaders, we also needed to say  goodbye  to  one  of  our  founding  trustees,  David  Judkins,  who  was  thanked  for  his contribution in the setting up of the charity. In November we held a hybrid Away Day to further explore  the  vision  of  transform.church.  This  was  helpful  as  a  starting  point  for  building relationships amongst the new trustees and to discuss what the current and future shape of the church could be. We’re excited about the year ahead, and are pleased that transform.church has  catalyzed  discussions  about  the  setting  up  of  a  Digital  Round  Table  within  Baptists Together.
