Mtssion
Reverend Martin Ball came to St George's in 2011 with the aim of building a strong local church that is evangelical and charismatic
in nature. It is continuing to grow into multi-generational and multi-ethnic Church, drawlng from a wider area than just the local
parish. In 2017 the church became more fully part of the HTB network of churches.
Connectin8 & Outreach:
Connect Groups
The church runs midweek Connect Groups which meet in homes. Thèse groups allow for more integration, relational building,
en£0￿rageMent, the ability to meet pastoral needs, accountability, the opportunity to practlcalize what is spoken about on Sundays
along with encouraging personal growth. This has been an important way of keeping the church together and making a stronger
community.
Alpha
We ran Alpha. and had the largest group attend we have ever had. Almost all partlcipants are now attending the church.
Ids Church
Kids church is continuing to grow, and the children are growlng In their faith. We have consistent numbers from week to week of
varying ages. We spilt out the groups again age wise on Sundays, whlch has Included starting a youth group. We're building a great
team, and the ministry is getting creatively focussed to deal with the variety of children's needs we have on site.

a forum specifically for men and women to be built up. strengthened and encouraged. It was particularly encouraging that monev
was raised by the women of the Open Doors charity at the Christmas Èvent.

attend. This year more people- about 36 petsple from 5t George's attended thi5, Wlth 33 camping.

Christma5
Our RISE women's event saw around 40 ladies in attendan￿. This wa5 a wonderful opportunily to gather and catch one's breath by
being able to get creative together and enjoy fellowship in a quality environment. before all the Christmas activitles. Part of the
evening also focussed on looking at believers in countries where persecution is happening, and culminated in the opportunity of
givinÈ financially to the charity Open Doors who work in these places.
The Donkey (Living Nativity) service was very well attended with 160 people, and the donkey is much loved by all who come. This
service has been a great fun way of presentin8 ihe Christmas Story through song and drama. effectively connecting with those who
come and are unchurched.

Incoming Resources
Planned giving. collections and donations are recognised when received or when the PCC becomes entitled to the resource and the

is recognised when it is receivable. All incoming resources are accounted for gross.

on the PCC. The diocesan parish Share is accounted for when due. Amounts received specifically for mission are dealt with a5
restricted funds. All other expenditure is generally recognised when it is incurred and is accounted for gross.

Fixed Assets
Consecrated and benefice property is not included in the account5 by s.1012llal&lCI of the Charities Act 2011.
Moveable church furnishings held by the Vicar and Churchwardens on special trust for the PCC and which require a faculty for
disposal are inalienable property, listed in the Church's inventory, which can be inspected lat any reasonable timel. For anything
acquired prior to 2000 there is insufficient cost information available and therefore such 355et5 are not valued in the financial

No depreciation is provlded on bulldlngs as the currently estimated residual value of the properties is not less than their carrying
value and the remaining useful life of these assets exceeds 50 years, so that any depreciation charges would be immaterial.
