The actlvltlos of tho charfty
At the heart of Christ Church Parish is a passionate desire to glorify God and demonstrate His love. This was
achieved through our varied Sunday services which took place at 1 Oam. 11:30am and occasionally (monthly) at
8:30am and 6pm.
Addttlon81 events and special services took placo during Christlan festlv81 seasons such as Lent; Holy Week;
Easter, Harves( Remembrance Sunday. Advent and Christmas. This year we also ran a three night gospel
mission in May.
Sunday Sthool is a vital part of what we do as a church. Each Sunday from Sept8mb8r- June (excepl the last
Sunday in the month when we have an all-age ser¥ice) Sunday School dasses ar8 hald in our parish halls for
thildren from age 4-16 years.
Our Sunday School offers various age groups a chance to explore God's word and enjoy fellowship in a relaxed
and welcoming atmosphere. We also have a crèche facilty which caters for under 4 years.
Other church groups induding Women's Fellowship. mld-week Prayer Meeting and Bible Study, Bowling Club,
Dance Class, Mums and Tots, and Hom8 groups provide opportunbties to enjoy fellowshlp wlth each other and
be built up by one another in a practical Christian focused way.
Our Halls are also nomially used to regularly facilitate. Scouts. worship band practice. ladies bible study groups.
prayer meetings. and 2 local community based choirs. Occasional hall use would include funeral teas. children's
birthday parties and various fundraising activities.
In addition to Sunday and other Church servlces such as funerals and weddlngs our church bulldlng Is used for
church choir practices.
The Rectory is used to facilitate marriage preparation dasses. confirmation preparation classes. occasional

volunteers from our parish offering 1 hr p8r week each to help childr8n in the school with their literacy. Our Harvest
tractor njn and 'Christmas Lights Tractor Run. served as a means of engaging with and blessing all age groups
in th8 wider community.
Fund raising
This year rt was felt by the truste8S that a 'Parish Gift Day. should be cAlled in support of Parish Funds. this was
well supported by many of our parishioners and proved to be most successful. The purpose of our charitable
ftjndraising is not only for our own costs, for example, our G8neral Church Fund or Mustard Seed Fund but also
for a variety of charitable needs e.g. our Pentecost barbecue (in support of Christian Aid) along with other social
events aimed at supporting other charitable causes, such events served as opportunities to improve social
cohesion, reduce social isolation and brlng a greater sense of togetherness.
This is a tsngible demonstration of our mission and outreach and awar8nes8 that. as Christians, we are called tt)
support a range of good causes.
Activities such as concerts. birthday parties and other fun(kraising events induding: Car Boot Sale: Charty Golf
Day; Tabl8 Quiz" Car Treasure Hunt; Autumn Tractor Run: were open to the whole of the church a￿1 also the
wider community
At all tlmes we keep In mlnd our Safeguardlng Trust policy, Health and Safety requlrements and catertng
regulations.
We have endeavoured to adhere to the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland's guidanc8 on publlc benefit to
ensure that the activities entered into during the year have helped to benefit the whol8 of the communty and
achleve the Parish's objectives.
Mlsslons and evangellsm

such as Church Army. Churches Min5sty of Healing and the Bible Society (see financial report).

is a public benefit. This can normally be measured and evidenced through pastord visitstion. incr8ased social
integration and pastoral care delivered at the point of need.
Overall. the benef￿larieS of Christ Church Castledawson are the general public and the public valuation of the
benefrts Can be evidenced through attendance at public worship. participation in Church govemance and
willingness to support the continuing witn8ss of the Church through financial contributions. The wider benefit to
the public is the availability of a place for worshipping in the course of Christian outreach and the facilitation of
weddings, funerals. baptisms and confirniations.
Any private benefit arising out of the fulflment of our Christian ministry or to lay stsff is essential to the fulfilment
for the purpose of religion. No elected Trustee receives remuneration. reward or other prlvate benefrt for carrying

Also. the direct benefits flowing from the purpose of the Church includes the provision of archive records. public
8njoyment of historic buildings and artefacts such as Church plate, furnishings and materials as an overall
improved appreciation of a longstanding Christian heritage. This is demonstrated through on-going provision of
access to records and the use made of these records in, for example, research and genealogy. through
conservation efforts in respect of records. propety and artefacts and the subsequent requests for access and
use of our materials by the wider society. We sometimes receive requests for family information from individuals
from around the world.
