3 Kirk Session Report for 2012

Welcome to our AGM and thank you for attending. I am sure everyone joins me in welcoming Rev. Anne Tolland ,as our special guest this evening ,and to what we all trust and pray will be the first of many such events for you here with us. One thing I feel confident about predicting‐ that you looked to your 2nd visit to in a much calmer frame of mind than you had approached your first visit to us: I would also like to welcome particularly a number of new members who are with us this evening for the first time. I hope that they also feel very much part of Newtownbreda. I can only start this report by saying ‐what a year we had in 2012. We started off very conscious that Rev. Wilfred Orr would be retiring in April. Inevitably the ending of a Ministry that was of virtually 30 years duration brought with it a tangible sense of uncertainty and concern for what the future held. As I seek to report on the year and as I reflect on what has happened to this family of God`s people. I am drawn back to two themes which I have used before ‐as these just seem even more appropriate than when I used them originally. The first is a deep sense of gratitude for how we ‐under God`s guidance ‐have come so far and almost to the end of the vacancy. That guidance came to us in many forms, above all as a response to prayer and above all in the Christian love, wisdom and total commitment of Rev Tom Wilson. I would like to emphasise we should be very grateful not just for finding a new Minister but also for the manner in which God has guided us‐by bringing us to prayer, by engaging us in prayer and also by drawing us even closer together as a family of His people. When I said last year that I sensed we had come closer together in 2011, I had no idea that we would continue to do this in 2012. This has been most clearly manifest in my opinion by the manner in which so many of us have moved into maker greater contributions to our congregational life and worship. We could not have continued to function as a congregation without the collective will to fill the significant voids left by Wilfred`s retirement and then Jane`s acceptance of the call from 1st Omagh. This meant moving well outside our comfort zone for example, by leading the prayers of intercession or reading at morning worship; by joining the Prayer Group and contributing on a regular basis. No matter how unequal to these tasks anyone of us has felt, with God`s help and grace, we have succeeded in accomplishing them. Undertaking this service has drawn us all closer together and allowed us to value each other in an even deeper, more meaningful way. I have lost count of the number of times I have been told after morning worship how helpful these contributions from members of the congregation have been during worship. Clearly it is impossible here this evening to thank everyone who has contributed so helpfully in the last year but I do hope you understand why I want to mention some people as their contribution has just been so important in my opinion. I have already mentioned Rev Tom Wilson, I would like on behalf of us all to thank him most sincerely and also the members of the Presbytery Commission for all they have done. Tom`s concern for us, his love for us as a congregation went far beyond what was required by way of oversight responsibilities. He has guided us so well. The hallmark of that for me has been his thoughtfulness over who he has invited to preach during the vacancy. We have been both greatly blessed and challenged by those who have led our worship. I have to admit over the last 10 months I have learnt so much more about just how this large congregation works and on a weekly basis just how many important tasks need to be done. Each year I thank David Stewart and Jacynth Hamill for all they do for our worship through the music and praise. But can I say this year ‐equipped as I am with a much greater understanding ‐how much I have valued not just the wonderful music and praise but also the quiet but exceptionally effective way in which they stepped forward and contributed so much to the development of our services of worship and by doing so the leadership of the congregation. Let me also thank the choir and all our musicians for their part in enriching our

4 praise, you really do “lift us higher”. Our thanks also to David and Jubilate for choosing to celebrate their 25th Anniversary Concert of Advent music in St. John`s Hall in December. Not only was the music magnificent; there was also a very generous donation of 50% of the proceeds to our Halls Development Fund. There are several other people I want to thank tonight. Twelve months ago the Session established a subcommittee to help the office bearers with the various tasks and issues that a vacancy would produce. Each and everyone of those elders contributed very substantially to the progress we have made: they gave willingly of their time and talents and I would wish the congregation to be aware of our debt to them. So I thank Irene Younge, Deborah Doherty, Jacynth Hamill, Debbie Eve, Donald Milliken, Maurice Russell, Rev. John Peacock and Brian Compston. Inevitably there is a substantial workload that falls to the office bearers in this situation. The Treasurer is required to meet the extensive requirements for financial data: while our decision to refurbish the Manse has placed a significant demand on the Congregational Secretary .It will not surprise anyone here that not only were Denis and Robert more than equal to each and every task, they could be also relied upon to exercise the soundest of judgement at each and every stage. You will have the opportunity soon to see for yourself at the Manse evidence of their invaluable inputs. The challenging task of managing the Vacancy never became too complicated thanks to the wisdom and hard work of Denis and Robert. I will thank also on your behalf the other members of the ministerial team. We have been very fortunate that the Rev Bill Hazlett joined us in the summer to undertake the pastoral visiting. I cannot think of anyone better suited for this responsibility than Bill. As a former assistant here in Newtownbreda he has the perfect background, and when this is allied to his great memory and his inexhaustible treasury of amusing stories you can see why he is tailor made for the role. We have been just as fortunate to have had Rev. Jane Nelson as our Assistant Minister over the last 3 years. We are delighted that Jane has since September had her own congregation in 1st Omagh and we in Newtownbreda are not surprised that the early reports of her work there are so positive. Tonight also marks our farewell to our Youth leader Pete Graham. In his 3 and a half years with us Pete has made an enormous impression and while I do not want to steal any of Johnny Brown’s thunder I am keen to place on record in this report our deep gratitude to Pete and Christine for their contribution to our work and wish them both well in the future. They are a young couple who will contribute much to this society in the future. While my report this year is longer than usual for what I consider understandable reasons I would still like to record, albeit briefly a number of other important events. At the end of April Rev. Wilfred Orr preached his final sermon to a church packed with people and packed with emotion. In a wonderful affirmation of faith Wilfred built his charge to us for the future around the baptism of two infants. Then at the end of May we had a memorable night marking Wilfred’s retirement. Almost 300 people attended, including many of Wilfred and Jenny’s friends from outside the congregation, and they were treated to a superb fork supper and great music from the Panama Jazz Band!!There were presentations to them both. The entire evening was marked with great fun, friendship and fellowship: but it was inevitably tinged with some sadness as we said farewell. We were also saddened as a Session by the death of Agnes Mac Lachan in March. Agnes had served this congregation so well and in many different roles, as an elder, as a Sunday School teacher and latterly helping Margaret , her daughter with the Guides. Agnes was enthusiastic and energetic in her faith. I can best illustrate that for you by telling you Agnes went on her first Guide camp –at the age of 63! Her family has donated to the congregation the new bookcase that we have in the Foyer as well as her collection of Christian literature.

5 In March as part of our preparation for the Vacancy the Kirk Session spent a day with the Benedictine Monks in . This day which was spent in reflection and prayer was led by Brother Thierry. We learnt from him, both about the Benedictine beliefs on prayer and silence and the difficult journey which led eventually to the founding of their community at Rostrevor. On reflection the Session could not have had better preparation for the year that lay ahead. We have continued to play a full part in the work of Ormeau Churches Together (OCT) and in particular GLU in July and the Inter Church Breakfast in January. During the year OCT organised two tours of all the churches in the area as well as a Community walk in Colin Glen. We participated with St. Jude’s Parish in presenting special Diamond Jubilee editions of the New Testament to all the pupils at Rosetta Primary School. In addition we gave copies to all the children in our Sunday Schools. In September the Eco Committee launched a scheme to Recycle our Waste from the Halls and Kitchen. I am pleased to report this has been well supported, which demonstrates our concern for the environment, particularly the environment in which our children and their children will live in. Just in case any of our visitors, or new members, would draw the wrong conclusions about Newtownbreda let me reassure them that we enjoy having fun together. There were two big social occasions which raised substantial funds for our Halls Development. In February in this hall, we held “Stars in their Eyes” which proved to be a magnificent evening. Then in October in La Mon House Hotel we had “Strictly come Dancing” which also proved to be a great hit. On a personal note I am pleased to tell you that hearing the opening bars of the “Strictly” theme tune no longer brings me out in a cold sweat, no longer sends a shiver my spine!!Actually by the time the new series starts in the autumn my doctor thinks I may be able to watch it without having to take any Vallium. As I said at the outset we have drawn together even more closely as a family of God’s people in this year‐drawing together in prayer ,in praise ,in worship and in enjoying each other’s company. We have every reason to be exceptionally grateful to God for his great love for us that has brought us through this period of uncertainty. We must continue to look to Him in prayer, all of us, to seek His will for us in 2013 and beyond. Thank you. Bruce Robinson

Congregational Committee Report for 2012

Moderator, ladies and gentlemen, for a while now those who know my ways have been asking – have you got your theme yet for the report? On becoming Secretary I knew from the outset that presenting a business style report of your Committee’s work would not be my way and that I needed a theme or an idea around which to weave my thoughts, if only to avoid boring myself silly while writing it. Somewhat more cynically, perhaps my theme also serves as that classical ploy of oration, an attention grabber; since you, my audience, having gorged yourselves on the delights placed before you earlier will be, by now, at that point in your blood sugar metabolism whereby, if I don’t galvanize your attention in the next 90 seconds, your imminent boredom will likely lapse into sleep. Toy Story or rather The Toy Stories – as there have been 3 of these computer‐animated films – have been seen the world over by countless millions. If somehow they have passed you by,

6 one might reasonably inquire as to where you have been since the first was released in 1995? However, even if you know the films well and especially if you have seen all three of them, you already may have a problem differentiating the plotlines of one from the other. Conversely, I suspect you have little difficulty recalling the main characters of the anthropomorphic toys of the title. So why use Toy Story as a theme for an annual report? Well, if you’re still with me and were at church on Sunday 3rd February maybe you’re thinking it’s because of Mr and Mrs PotatoHead and it is out of deference to our special guest of this evening and her marvellous children’s address on that occasion. But you would be wrong. Maybe you’re thinking that the imagery of a somewhat disparate group of characters, the so‐called toys of the title, pooling their skills and talents to overcome challenges, problems and uncertainties appropriately captures the work of Committee. While that may very well be the case, it is not the reason. The reason why Toy Story is my theme comes down to the eponymous Buzz Lightyear and not because of the current advertising campaign for Lynx male‐grooming products which asserts that, ‘nothing beats an astronaut’ but rather who since he darkened our doors or should that be brightened our skies, Buzz Lightyear has been synonymous with the battle cry ‘to infinity and beyond’. Oxymoronic or not, to my mind this saying sums up our mission journey here at Newtownbreda; a mission journey that calls for expansive, unending commitment to the work of Christ in this place, a mission journey that our Committee seeks to sustain through its work, a mission journey that calls on the committed support of each and everyone of us – the Congregation of Newtownbreda – through our time, our talents and our money – indeed to ‘to infinity and beyond’. The mark of a great film, rather than merely a good one – is not just that it can make us happy or sad, laugh or cry or experience any other combination of emotions – it is whether it transports us to higher levels of thinking and makes us examine our attitudes or face awkward truths about ourselves. And so I hope it is with this report; by all means approve or disapprove of the works of our Committee, be impressed by the progress made or concerned by the lack of it but neither miss the challenging messages in this report, challenges relating to what is needed to sustain the work of this church on its mission journey to infinity and beyond. The year passed has been one of saying ‘goodbye’. The March meeting was the final one chaired by Rev Wilfred Orr prior to his retirement and excerpts were read from the minutes of his first Committee in February 1983 to offer poignant reminders of familiar names and, indeed, a few familiar issues during Wilfred’s long and rich ministry. In turn Wilfred spoke of the commitment and good spirit of members of Committee over three decades and of the Office Bearers with whom he had served. In particular he referred to the work of Denis and Marjorie Guiler as Treasurer and Freewill Offering Convenor respectively and recalled Denis’s oft repeated saying, “If it’s important, we will provide for it”. At this juncture I also will take the opportunity on behalf of Committee to re‐iterate Wilfred’s sentiments for the enduring work and dedication of Denis and Marj and ask you to prayerfully reflect that in our mission journey to infinity and beyond our response should never be “can we afford it?” but always one of “If it’s important, we will provide for it”. Having already proved herself a laudable Convenor on a number of occasions, Jane Nelson once more took the chair for May’s meeting but again only in time for us to bid farewell following her call to Omagh. Since then Helen Pallin has confidently and competently acted as Convenor and I am personally very grateful to her for having agreed to temporarily act in this capacity.

7 Following the summer recess and in anticipation of a call being made in 2013, Committee considered the increasingly common practice of having a lay person rather than the minister as Convenor. Following discussion of the pros and cons of this approach, it was decided that our incoming minister be given the choice as to occupancy of the chair. As ever the bulk of the work which passes through the Congregational Committee is taken forward through its sub‐committees on Finance, Property, ICT and Communications, Management and last, but far from least, Catering. Being at the sharp end of this organisational structure I am very much aware of the efforts, both seen and unseen, of those who constitute these sub‐committees; I commend their dedicated service to you particularly, of those who act as their convenors and secretaries. In 1895 as the then Report records Committee met on the last Friday of every month. By comparison their modern equivalents seem to have a rather easy time of it with only 5 stated meeting per year but adding another 5 meetings for each sub‐committee and, bearing in mind that some serve on more than one sub‐committee, you can begin to appreciate their time commitment – and that’s before the rolling up of sleeves and getting down to the graft. Everything around you here tonight or during service on Sunday or at your organisation has been thought through, put in place, managed or maintained by the efforts of those on Committee. Whether that be ensuring the website is attractive, informative and up‐to‐date, that we keep pace with the burgeoning rafts of regulation that emanate from national or local government or Church House, that there is food at the Lunch Club or a cup of tea and a sandwich after a funeral and I could go on probably to infinity and beyond. ‘Why is he telling us all this?’ you may ask, ‘Is it not more like a public relations exercise that a business report?’ Well maybe so but then again all this work is essential to our mission journey and needs the ongoing support across the Congregation. And not just our moral support but crucially our tangible support – in short – our time and our money. One might describe 2012 as an exceptional year for the Property Sub‐Committee since a number of projects, for example improvements to the Megaw Room, had to ‘give way’ in respect of the Manse refurbishment. Nevertheless, other works, both planned and unforeseen, have been completed or are currently in progress. These range from replacing and upgrading the flat roof above the utility room and provision of store shelving to repairing and renovating the church flood lighting and replacing the water pump which prevents ground water flooding below this hall. Common to all these projects has been the aim of keeping costs low by carrying out as much of the work as possible ‘in house’. Given that this involves volunteers committing their nights, weekends and occasionally holidays, it is hardly surprising that projects may take longer to complete. For example, an inoperable curtain track may be an annoyance when the sun shines in your eyes but to fix it could require someone finding time to erect scaffolding before affecting the repair. Since many such jobs are labour intensive, the potential savings of a DIY approach should not be under‐ estimated. Hence patience in such cases can prove a highly lucrative virtue. While in the early stages of the vacancy decisions regarding the Manse lay with Session, once leave to call had been granted Committee held an exceptional meeting to adopt the resolution of Session that the existing building be retained and extensively refurbished. A schedule of works was immediately drawn up in consultation with David McKersie, who had agreed to take on responsibility for managing the project, with the target of substantial completion by early in the New Year. Built in the early years of the 20th Century the Manse was structurally sound but required re‐roofing and re‐pointing. However, the project also would involve improved insulation and would seek to ‘future proof’ the building as much as possible, thereby avoiding further significant expenditure in the medium‐to‐longer term though perhaps not as far as infinity and beyond.

8 Stepping outside the immediate remit of this Report, I am delighted to be able to inform you that the completion target has been achieved and that there will be an open day at the Manse on Saturday 23rd March to give everyone an opportunity to view what has been done and enjoy some refreshment. Before turning to Finance, Committee is relieved to report that envelope contributions to the Building and Repair Fund remained similar to 2011 and also gratefully acknowledges an anonymous donation of £1000 towards heating costs and a further one of £10000 for unspecified use. The Fund also benefitted from the transfer of over £116000 from the McKennan Memorial Fund which had conditions relating to use for clergy accommodation attached to it. The McKennan Fund has subsequently been closed. Overall this left the Building and Repair Fund with a healthy credit balance at year’s end but Committee is keen to stress the importance of continuing support for the Fund given the ongoing demands of the Manse refurbishment programme on it. I suspect that for many of us – I’m including myself in this – accounts never make easy reading. So it has been with considerable thought and patience during the last year that Denis Guiler has sought to ‘walk’ Committee through the summary of balances. In part this has been in pursuit of improved clarity and understanding but probably also acknowledging the need to increase awareness of the likely impact of the vacancy on our finances. On examining our accounts, one notion that can be difficult to shift is that our various funds have in some way a tangible reality. In fact and contrary to what some of us like to imagine, there are no individual cash boxes labelled this fund or that, nor indeed do separate accounts exist at the bank. For example, as the accounts before you show, the Bequest Fund has a healthy balance of almost £266000. However, in reality this is nothing more than a book keeping entry since the capital was used long ago in paying for the halls and currently is represented in the debt accrued to the Halls Redevelopment Fund. In essence it is as if we owe ourselves £266000 in much the same way as a prodigal son might be owing to his family’s estate. Whether or not his family eventually seeks to recover all or part or none of that debt then becomes the moot point and, in respect of the Bequest Fund, is one upon which Committee will decide in due course. Despite envelope contributions to the Halls Redevelopment Fund being almost 20% or £9000 lower than in 2011, fund raising remained buoyant with the Autumn Fair and Strictly Come Dancing generating upwards of £9000 between them. This is a testament to all those who put in many hours of work on these projects and our grateful thanks goes to them. So progress with the debt has been maintained albeit at a slower pace but, with liabilities to third parties still standing at almost £61000, Committee feels that the Halls Redevelopment Fund will need to run for at least 3 more years though certainly not to infinity or beyond. Of course, this presupposes that contributions hold up at 2012 levels. Should that not occur then the projected term simply gets longer and, to paraphrase the well‐known coaching mantra, it becomes a matter of ‘the less the gain, the more the pain.’ Consequently, there is little point in us not trying to discharge this debt as expeditiously as possible. In theory, at least, a vacancy is a fiscal opportunity for a congregation. Put simply following Wilfred’s retirement and Jane’s departure we experienced, and will continue to experience until the vacancy is over, a period of significantly reduced outgoings as a consequence of having no ministerial stipends to pay. So in the year past we had the potential to build up a surplus of over £24000 assuming Free Will Offering contributions and Gift Aid receipts remained at 2011 levels. However, it is of great concern to Committee that we, as a congregation, have failed to reap this fiscal windfall as income from envelope collections and tax refunds was some £13000 below that of 2011. Such a windfall would have gone a long way towards sustaining our mission journey but, rather than being ‘cash rich’ as we might have been, there is every likelihood that in the next financial year our Treasurer will have to

9 seek interest free loans from the congregation to provide cash flow to cover the Manse renovation and other essential running costs. The issue of declining income has continued to vex Committee in its search to understand the reasons for it. The consequences of the downturn in the economy cannot be denied yet clearly they have not affected everyone in equal measure; like many others congregations we are aging yet, while undeniably a factor, this is arguably not as significant as we might like to believe. While it is never pleasant to be the one responsible for washing dirty linen in public, especially in the presence of guests, sometimes it is unavoidable so I would ask you now to consider carefully our financial team’s analysis of Free Will Offering contributions in 2012 compared to the previous year. In the year to last December 494 sets of Free Will Offering envelopes were issued. Of those 115, who might be termed nominal members, made no contribution at all in either year. A further 40 made contributions which were the same for both years. The remaining 339 contributors were almost equally divided; 179 increased their contributions in 2012 and 160 contributed less compared with 2011. However, that in itself is not the disturbing outcome from the analysis. The disturbing outcome – the outcome that calls our attention – is that while 179 members contributed an additional £8542, contributions from the other 160 were down by £17066; almost exactly double that of the increase. This is an alarming statistic and not one that can be readily explained by the effect of the recession alone taken across our Congregation as a whole. In my view, and I am speaking personally here, we should be thinking more in terms of priorities and, in particular, how those of us fortunate enough still to have disposable income prioritize its use. Where does Newtownbreda and its mission journey to infinity and beyond figure in our individual financial priorities and how meaningful to us is it that this report is presented during Lent? A quote from the 1921 report of the Committee will bring this section to a close. Just as 2013 will be, for us, a milestone year as our new minister joins our mission journey, so it was also for the congregation in 1921, the year which marked the introduction of the Free Will Offering scheme that we still crucially depend on to pay for our day to day running costs. Here is what the report had to say, ‘The Committee desires to impress on the Congregation that this scheme can only be a complete success by the individual members fully discharging the obligation they owe to the Church. The main recommendation of the scheme is that the burden should fall in due proportion on all the members, and until that is accomplished, it can only be regarded as partially successful.’ Clearly this is as true today as it was 91 years ago and as it will be to infinity and beyond; please give it your prayerful consideration. Moderator, ladies and gentlemen I conclude your Committee’s report for 2012. Bob Meek
