Achievements and Performance Highlights

Minister's Review

In the last year as we have journeyed together with God, the congregation ai Si Andrews-Lhanbryd andUrquharL Church have continued to flourish Together we have made considerable advances as acongregation. With the assistance of the central church we held a successful Stewardship campaignwhich gave opportunity for us to cckbratc together the many talents and skills we have in ourmembership. A nevv and active website has been created (salucofs,wordpress,com) which has taken themessage of the gospel, the witness and the work of the congregation around the globe. We have launcheda successful monthly Messy Church in the Lhanbryde Community Centre which has been welcomed andattended by many of the young families in our community that otherwise would have little contact withthe church and the ministry of the members. AH this has happened alongside our many existingcommitments to worship and outreach in the community and in the wider world.As a congregation we said goodbye until we meet again to several church friends who are now in thepresence of our Lord. In balance we have welcomed people back into die fellowship and been joined bysome new members and adherents.Willi God"? strength we will continue lo journey in the footsteps of Jesus as we endeavour to Know toLove and to Serve God.

Yours in Christ. Andrew Robertson

Messy Church

Messy Church meets monthly in the afternoon in Lhanbryde Community Centre for children and theirfamilies Each event is themed around a bible story supported by games and crafts which lead to a time ofconlempniary worship, followed by a meal. It is well supported throughout the congregation bothpractically and prayerfully. The planning team are grateful lor the support of the Kirk Session. It is widely-regarded as an asset to our community and well attended by people that wouldn't otherwise choose tocome to church. There have been many encouraging comments left on Taeebook which can be accessedvia the church website.

Praise Group

Praise Group contributes to worship on a monthly basis and some of its members provide the music atMessy Church on a monthly basis. We meet fortnightly lo practice and more frequently when required. Inthe last year the church has encouraged us by providing additional professional microphones and amonitor. It is our hope and prajer that in the coming year we can strengthen our complement ofmusicians

Worship Support Group

The group has continued to support the minister in his responsibility tor the content and conduct ofworship. As well as undertaking the administration of the rotas for readers, organists and sound deskoperators, the group has been involved in organising and supporting a number of services throughout theyear. These have included Good Friday, Speyiest arid Harvest Thanksgiving as well as several occasionsthroughout the year when the minister was on holiday or otherwise unable to conduct worship. Thespeeial services in particular have been well received; indeed sonic have been highlights.A number of changes have affected the group' 5 working in the course of the >ear. Firslly, in the interestof clarity a revised remit was agreed early in the year. A further change is that Young Church nowreports directly lo Session through Grant dimming, rather than through the Worship Support Group.Initially, towards Ihe end of the year Stuart Mackenzie found it necessary to resign as Convener, the rolebeing earned out in the meantime by the minister. The congregation has good cause to be grateful toStuart for his time as Convener, and also for his continuing support through conducting worship fromtime to time.

Gulreaeh Group

The members of the group have spent the year in various different church activities supporting outreachwork in the community and in the wider world. They were a! the forefront (if Christian Aid week whichraised three and a half thousand pounds. They tried to support Sara in her community fun mornings whiehoccurred 5 limes during the year. The welcome comer awaits the move of the sound system to put intoplace the next phase of development We have kept in touch with Amanda Christie via Alastair Rossetterand Angle Laverty met up with her during her trip to Nepal. There was no Souper Sunday but one isplanned for 2014. The church website was set up by Grant Gumming who is now maintaining it and thegroup is very grateful to Grant for all his hard work.

Fellowship Group

Several functions were organised during the past year. These are sometimes difficult to time because ofthe need to avoid clashing with other fundraising events.A Coffee Morning in August raised £400 for Church funds,, with a Harvest Breakfast in October bringingin donations of £80. Bolh events were well supported, and were very happy social occasionsRefreshments for events like the Christinas Eve walk arc also organised.Another Fellowship Breakfast is planned lor 23rd February, with donations being invited for Churchfunds.The Group"1; Remit includes the RoJtkccpmg.

Report on the Church Organisations

The Guild

This year's Guild theme ES "Building a Fellowship."We opened the session with a speaker from Mary's Meals, one of our current projects. In OctoberYvonne Pearson challenged us as we explored the discussion topic "Finding the Righl Way."] o celebrate Guild week we invited aH Moray West Guilds to a successful Quiz night. Our quiz masterswere Isabel Spcncc and Jean Angus. Fiona Mackay and Ruth Keir hosted an enjoyable Christmascelebration with crafts, and qui?jes.In January we opened our meeting to the congregation to hear Angic Lavcrty give a very moving accountof her visil to Nepal. We are looking forward Lo the World Day of Prayer with our own minister RevAndrew Robertson and to a visit from the National Convener of Crossreac-h. Dr Sally Bonnar. The AGMin March will also be a highlight as we hear from Margaret Murray in her role as a Street Pastor.As a fundraiser we hosted a soup and fancy piece lunch after a December Sunday morning service. Wehave also given 100 mugs designed by Kirsty Cinnniirig to Ihc church and -.old almost 200 as anotherfundraiser for the projects. We aie planning an afternoon tea in April and the Guild Year will finish witha return visit to Logie Steading.

Young Church

Whilst it is a real encouragement to have 30 young people (aged 1 - 17 years) associated with otircongregation, we continue to face the challenge of so many other things competing for their attention on aSunday morning.On Sundays in Young Church wenve been using Mosaic materials looking at some of Jesus' parables andmore recently the life of David.Tic Tacs have explored 'The I ruth about topics like media, authority, money etc" and arc now looking at1 John discussing the differences between Real and Fake Christians.Hveryone enjoyed taking part of the Nativity Service produced by lain & Jax. We were made lu think ofall the challenges experienced by those who met the infant Jesus, and how we loo are challenged by Him.The Giving for Growth campaign saw a creative flourish from Tic Tacs with the creation of a personalwall mural and a video montage. Younger members also contributed colourful posters and crafts to thedisplay.Over the year Tic Tacs have continued to have monthly social gatherings - bonfires, nighl walki, films.Scalexlric races. & baking have all featured, and in January Young Church members joined some of theteens for a fun trip to Hopeman Panto. Abernelhy in September was once again a highlight for 11teenagers and 4 adults.

Wc are most grateful for the congregation's support of the Tic Tac's coffee & baking fundraising event,and for the backing of the Kirk Session enabling everyone to go on the Aberncthy weekend.Thanks are also due To all the leaders for their commitment to our >oung people week by week.

So far. no new meeting have beenarranged and we also have not decided on a new venue. The group is kind of in limbo at the moment andthe future i-, unclear.

About

We meet irregularly and over the last year we hardly managed to do something together. But we aretrying hard to get back into a more regular pattern. In December we had a very successful and enjoyablecraft evening with Aberlour artist Sally Charlesworth and in January we met for a cake decoratingmasterclass with young people from Milne's High. In February we will have a film night and in Marchour annual outing to the musical production of St Giles' Thealre Group.Average attendance is about 10,

Fin and at Review

The principal source uf income for the year continued to be offerings made by regular gifl aid. Thissource of income increased by almost 12% compared to the previous year. Open plate and non-gift aidedofferings were down by just over 5% in total indicating a further shift to ^ift aided donations. A similarnumber of people have contributed more in gift aided donations during 2013. The tax claimed on Gift Aidwas proportionally more in relation to the actual Gift Aid donations due to the Gift Aid Small DonationScheme which commenced in April. Tax was also claimed on all donations received up to 31 December2033 to facilitate the handover to a new Gift Aid Convenor. Previously, tax claims were staggered atvarious periods ihroughoul the year for different people but the inlroduction of online registration hasmade it easier for claims to be submitted foi everyone at the same Lime. Total unrestricted donations forihe jear were up by 3% compared to 2012. Payments made for charitable activities during 2013increased by 8%. Increased costs were due mainly to the cost of replacing the manse kitchen.

Total receipts for the year ended 31 December 20H were f 89,286 (2012 £ 83:317) and payments were £86,295 (2012 £ 79.288), This resulted in an excess of receipts over payments for 2013 of £2,991 (2012£4,029). Il should be noted however thai the 2013 resull included a legacy for unreslricled purposes of£3,000 so excluding thi 5 there would have been an excess of payments of £9.

Reserves Policy

It is the Trustees' policy to hold unrestricted reserves of approximately six months expenditure includingdesignated funds. At the year end the Church held unrestricted liquid cash funds of £54,339 of which11,490 had been designated for fabric fund. The current remaining balance of £52,849 represents justover nine months ordinary general expenditure. Unrestricted funds held in investments other than liquidcash amounted to £

The Church also held £49.376 of restricted and endowment funds which have been provided for thepurposes specified in Note 2.
