Achievements and Performance
From Our Minister the Reverend Lorna Souter
Our good news stories for 2025, continue to focus on the projects being run by our Community Youth
Worker, Josh Keay-Toastie Tuesday and the follow-on Drop-ln Café on a Thursday evening at Cockpen
Church Hall in Bonnyrigg. Toastie Tuesday has continued to have large numbers of young people attending
for lunch, with around 31X) to 350 regularly attending from Lasswade High School. It has been wonderful
to see the project continue steadity and through it many good conversations take place with the
younESters each week. We continue to seek to offer the warmest welcome of the week and prayerfully to
share Jesus's love with those who are interested. The faithful, altemating team of about eight volunteers
who help to make and serve the toasties each week. as well as a drink and a snack all for £1, continue to
serve from different churches in the community- Our Lady, Cockpen & Carrington, Lasswade & Rosewell
and Bonnyrigg Church.
For those who would like to attend, Josh has also been running the Drop-ln Café on Thursday evenings
from 7-9 pm, giving an opportunity to build relationships and to explore faith further. There are around
12-15 young people from the High School attending. On the back of Toastie Tuesday and Drop-ln Café, it
was super to have about 16 young people accept invitations to Stage 'N' Slam summer camps at either
Liberton or Gorebridge during the summer holidays and for eight of those to make a commitment to follow
Jesus at the end.

Achievements & Performance (cont.)
In our other ventures, Messy Church continues to take place on the first Saturday of the month during
term times. Although, attendance has often been small with only a few families attending, the sessions
have been fun and have allowed closer conversations overthe mealtimes. Every now and then, more
families return or come along to try out Messy Church and that is always very encouraging. We continue
to seek further avenues to promote Messy Church in the villa8e and the large banner advertisin8 the
sessions now during the week before each one. has helped to draw some new families in. At the start of
November, Bonnyrigg Parish, Lisswade & Rosewell and Cockpen & Carrington Church shared in employing
Jenny Fepuleai as a new part-time Children & Family Worker and it has been greatto have Jenny come to
3SSlSt in leading Messy Church each month.
The Growing Young team have continued to meet up every three months or so and to review our
engagemontwith young people. Although we have no children or young people generally attending
church on a Sunday morning, it is encouraging to see the continuation of Messy Church and we share the
vision for growing young in and through our shared ministrywith Bonnyrigg Church and Cockpen &
Carrington Church in seeing the developing connections with young people through Toastie Tuesday, the
Drop-ln Café and the Youth Fellowship at Bonnyrigg Church. When the three churches gather on a fifth
Sunday of the month for a joint service, the young people linked with the church are present and share in
taking part and this has been a great encouragement to all who attend.
The three churches together have continued to develop The Harbouf project and it was formally launched
in June. It Seeks to offer safe spaces for people to discover Jesus and his love for them. Toastie Tuesday,
Drop-ln Café and Messy Church are already part of this vision and we look forward to seeing these and
other ventures flourish and be fruitful in encouraging local people to discover how much they are known
and loved by God.
Sadly'Fun Space, at R05ewell Hall on a Thursday morning was not successful in the way we had hoped
which was to attract young parents forgames, jigsaws and crafts. It was good to try as an experiment but
after running for 9 months without new people coming alon& it Was decided to bring it to an end in June.
Contart with Rosewell PS began again in the autumn. The minister assists wtth occasional assemblies and
it was great to join in the Christmas Carol Se￿1￿ with the school again (sadly not at the church due to the
weather). A few church members continue to assist with one-to-one reading and social skills with a few
students.
The monthly Coffee Mornings at Rosewell Church Hall have continued to be a very welcome place for
members of the community in Rosewell and beyond to gather for a scone and tea/coffee and the delights
of the home-baking stall. It can often be so busy it is difficult to find a seat! The Christmas Coffee Morning
in December with bacon rolls and Christmas stalls was, in particular, once again a tremendous success with
many people having fun in attending and a large sum raised for church funds.
Thi5 year again, too. we have supported the Midlothian Foodbank at Gorebridge through our Ha￿est
Service in September and the ongoing provision of non-perishable food items and toiletries acr055 the
yeaf. We were delighted as well again to support the annual Christian Aid Appeal in May, and Blythswood
Care in their Shoebox Appeal and The Safvation Army in their Toy Appeal at Christmas.

recordings of services being made available online from Rosewell Church. The Worship Team made up of

and Elizabeth Morton as our Lay Pastor, are immensely capable and helpful in covering servi￿5 when the
minister is away.
With an offer having been made and accepted for the purchase of Lasswade Church, it is in the gradual
process of being sold with the assistan￿ of the Law Department at the Church of Scotland offices. It is
anticipated that this will be completed in April to May 2026.

Teas & Coffee
A5 in the past our weekly Tea and Coffee, after the service is a very worthwhile time spent in discussion,
maybe about the service or just catching up with friends and acquaintances.
Coffee Morning
Our ongoing Coffee mornings once again have proved successful. The amount raised in 2025 was £1.767.
Many thanks to all who have made this possible.

Sadly, during the year one of our long-stsnding Kirk Session members. Mrs Cecile Gillespie passed away, on
16th November 2025. Cecile will be remembered for all the work she did for the
Church over many years.
In common with all congregations of the Church of Scotland, the congregation benefit5 from
the contribution made by volunteers who give their time and talent willingly for the benefit of
the Church. The areas of congregational life which rely on the contribution of volunteers are
many and varied and much of the artivity would be unable to continue were It not for the
commitment shown.
The church continues to play an important part in the life of our community and your
continued support is appreciated and necessary to allowthiswork to carry on. The Church's
website is also used to promote the life of the Church family.

Financial Review
Our Christian giving is the offering of money to our God to enable us to share the Gospel through the
worship, mission and service of our church to our congregation and the wider community of all ages.
Throughout the year, Kirk Session, as Trustees, are kept informed by the Treasurer with an update of the
state of financial affairs and decisions required.
Income: The total income for 2025 was £51,088 which includes £16,463 re￿iVed from our accounts held
with 121 George Street. With our principal source of income coming from weekly and monthly giving.
Income from offerings for 2025 amounted to £20,757 a decrease of £5,159 in the previous year. It is good
that many members contribute by standing order or Digitsl transfer. Gift Aid makes a substantial increase to
our income, which 3150 applies to members who contribute through the Open Plate and Freewill envelope.
Details of which are found on the page 14 of the accounts.
Each year the congregation has to pay a GNingto Grow amount. which helps to pay fof our full-time linked
Minister, and in 2025 was £19.644 with also a contribution of £446 to the Lothian and Border Presbytery.
Our linked congregation Cockpen and Carrington make similar contributions.
We are very grateful indeed to all our rnembers who support the work and mission of our church and make
sure they are warmly thanked regularly.
Other useful income comes from hiring our hall to the community at Rosewell. Our excellent fund-rdising
team with the congregations helped raise £4.335 through events including £2,552 from our well attended
monthly coffee mornings at Rosewell. Our Christmas Fair attracts many from the local community and
raised a great sum of £1,364 Many thanks to all involved, much appreciated.
We have also been successful in receNin8 a major contribution from the Church of Scotland's Seeds for
Growth Fund. to which enables usto share the employment of a Community Youth Worker and a Children
and Family Worker within our Harbour Project with Bonnyrigg and Cockpen and Carrington local churches.
It is building all the time and bringing young people into the love of the gospel of Jesus, 50 important for
the future of our churches locally. Plans are in hand to run a Stewardship Programme next year to explain
what we do in an exciting way to attract involvement finarscially and other ways from a wider number of
our congregation.
Expendlture: Our totsl costs for the year were £55.204 an increase of £110 from previous year. Apart from
the Giving fof Grow amount, the main costs V￿re for utilities £6,489 and the maintenance of our two
church buildings and the hall £13,468 Details of all expenditure are in the statement of balances point 4 on
page 14. We have agreed access to variou5 funds held for us by 121 George Street as detailed below for
fabric, utilities and insurance.
This gives us a very useful cushion in our overall financial position- The Treasurer infomis the Kirk Session
Trustees regularly on our budgeted expendtture and on any ad-hoc decisions required to be agreed.
