Trustees Annual Report for the year ended 31st December 2022
CHARITABLE PURPOSE AND OBJEcrs
The charitable purpose of the Church of Ireland is the advancement of religion.
The principal function of All Saints, Church, Eglantine Parish. ("the Parish") is to support the advancement of
the Christian religion by promoting through the work of the Parish, the whole mission of the Church, pastoral,
evangelistic, social and ecumenical. Being open to and engaging with society as a whole and offering support
for those needing help are fundamental to the practical delivery of the benefits of Christianity.
As a result of activity in the pursuit of the advancement of Christian religion, the Parish has custody of property
and of records, materials and artefacts of significance to our cultural and religious heritage, the maintenance of
which is undertaken by the select vestry of the Parish.
Achievements and Performance
Worshlp
Worship is central to the life of the Parish. Our rich variety of worship is based on the services contained in the
Book of Common Prayer, with a balance of word and sacrament. Two servtces of worship are held each
Sunday- one at 11.00am and one at 6.00pm. Every Wednesday a celebration of the Eucharist and
Intercessions for the Sick is held at 10.00am.
We follow the liturgical framework of the Church of Ireland so that, in addition to the normal weekly services,
we observe all the main Christian festivals as well as certain saints. days.
Children In the Parlsh
A Sunday School is available for all parish children over the age of 3. Children come to Church for the opening
prayers, collerts and scripture readings before moving into the Church Hall for lessons in the basics of Church
of Ireland/Christian teaching. On the first Sunday of each month, children remain in Church to participate in
the family seniice and listen to a children's address by the Rettor. On the third Sunday of each month the
children come into Church to receive a blessing during Parish Communion.
Postoml Care
Pastoral Care is provided primarily by the Rector to any member of the parish who may so require it- e.g. the
hospitalised, the sick, the elderly, the disabled, the housebound or anyone who requests for a visit.
(While generally restricted to members of the Parish, pastoral care will under special circumstances be extended
to anyone within the parish boundaries.)
Each Monday the flowers provided for the preceding Sunday services are delivered to 2 or 3 parishioners who
are ill, housebound or have suffered a bereavement etc.
Baptlsms Marriages and Funerals
The Rector provides help. guidance and supportforthe families involved before, during and after these services.
Church Organisotions meet as described in the following paragraphs.

Eglantlne 8owling Club meets once or twice each week, and the members compete in local competitions and
tournaments. The Club also runs Summer Bowls from May until September as well as occasional other special
events. The Club membership includes non-church members and, as such, it plays an important role in reaching
out to others and promoting church life within the local community.
The Flower Arronging Class meets weekly with the exception of the summer months. Non-church members
are very welcome.
The Craft Class meets on a similar basis to the Flower Class and members can work at their own speed on any
project they wish. Again. it is open to non-church members.
A Rainbows Brownies and Guldes Unft meets each Monday evening and is very popular with families the
local area.
A Youth Group (BLAST) has been established within the last year and meets every Friday evenin8.
Special Events

fellowship and fun within the Church and wider community and to raise monies for Church funds. Of particular
note during the past year were two musical evenings featuring classical guitar recitals.
On Remembrance Sunday wreaths are laid on the two War Memorials in the Church and on the graves of the
21 young airmen who rest in our graveyard.
Public Benefit - Summa
Public worship in the Parish delivers Christian witness and outreach contributing to the spiritual well-being of
the participants while at the same time reinforcing Christian values. These Services are open to all.
Leaflets providing information on what we believe and why, are placed in the entrance of the Church.
There is a parish website which gives details of our times of worship and provides information on parish
activities, which are also highlighted on our Facebook page.
The Selett Vestry {Trustees) donate out of parish funds to several local Charities and a number of parish
members contribute via Missionary boxes to projects abroad. These activities indicate Christian outreach to
and concern for the wider community.
The children of the parish are being instructed in the Christian way of life with particular emphasis on the ethos
of the Church of Ireland. While primarily for parish children all children are made welcome.
Our mission and outreach to the community is reflected in all the varied activities mentioned in the previous
sections which go on throughout the year. Parish organisations are not restricted to members of the parish.
Access to parish records etc. is granted on request.
The Trustees have established a Safeguarding Trust panel to ensure the Child Protection policy of the Church of
Ireland is implemented throughout our parish. Detsils of Safeguarding Trust have been published in our parish
magazine and information and contact numbers for panel members are displayed in the parish hall. We also
adhere very strictly to our Health and Safety Policy, and routine Health and Safety inspections are conducted.
There was no private benefit provided by the Parish or resulting from its activities.
Compliance with Public Benefft
The parish has given careful consideration to the Charity Commission for Nl guidance on public benefit to ensure
that the activities entered into during the year have helped achieve the Parish's objectives, as well as providing
public benefit. While it is difficult to quantify the achievement, benefits, influence etc. of the Parish on the
individuals whose lives we touch, the Rector and the Select Vestry (Trustees) are confident that the Parish is
playing its part in fulfilling the whole mission of the Church. pastoral, evan8elistic. social and ecumenical..
