PCC Meeting - 6th February 2014

The following items were discussed:

Financial report

Update on Repair fund:  After English Heritage, other grants and fund raising events so far, we now need to raise £21,000

Church and churchyard

The porch roof needs to be repaired after theft of lead. Approximately £5,000 met by insurance. There are more rotten roof timbers than at first thought. This will cost another £1,800 which will be covered by a grant.

Social and fund raising

The tickets for the April concert are now available. See separate notice. Tickets can also be obtained from Tysoe Post office. Printing of posters is still in the pipe line. Hopefully by the end of March.

The Lamb and Curry lunch is to be rescheduled for 15th June (not 22nd).

Bill Fox has kindly offered his barn for a Barn Dance at Harvest time.  Douglas Nethercleft is sourcing a suitable band.

Deanery Report

A meeting was held on February 4th in Shipston at St Edmunds church. The main speaker was Canon David Porter who is the director for Reconciliation at Lambeth Palace. He is also now the Coventry Diocese Canon for Reconciliation. Kate Dyer (General Synod member) spoke of the efforts to reconcile differences among Synod members on the subjects of human sexuality and religions.

Date of next meeting

This will be the AGM in church on April 3rd at 7.30pm.
