  • The Parish Church of St Mary's Hanley Castle with St Gabriel's Hanley Swan
    THE PARISH CHURCH OF ST MARY’S HANLEY CASTLE WITH ST GABRIEL’S HANLEY SWAN Annual Parochial Church Meeting Sunday 21st March 2021 Chair: The Revd Barry Unwin Report for the Parochial Church Council, of St Mary’s Church, Hanley Castle with St Gabriel’s Hanley Swan Calendar Year 2020 Aims and Purposes Our Parochial Church Council (PCC) has the responsibility of cooperating with the incumbent, the Reverend Barry Unwin, in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. The PCC is also specifically responsible for the maintenance of the churches of St Mary, Hanley Castle and St Gabriel’s Hanley Swan. Objectives and Activities The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our church and to become part of our parish community. The PCC maintains an overview of worship throughout the parish and makes suggestions on how our services can involve people living within our parish. Our services and worship put faith into practice through prayer and scripture, music and sacrament. When planning our activities for the year, we have considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the supplementary guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. In particular, we try to enable ordinary people to live out their faith as part of our parish community through: • Worship and prayer; learning about the Gospel; and developing their knowledge and trust in Jesus. • Provision of pastoral care for people living in the parish. • Missionary and outreach work. To facilitate this work it is important that we maintain the fabric of our church buildings.

Instead we have included copies of the summaries we used at one of the consultation events.

These intangible features require protection and considerate development within the boundaries. One parish but Hanley Castle and Hanley Swan are different villages. They have nothing in common. Please do not confuse matters by assuming they are one. As an issue of heritage it is important that they retain their own identities.
