Starting in October, a Pip n Jay intern team will be exploring what it means to live "life on mission with Jesus growing disciples growing churches." It will be a year of deepening relationships with God, growing in understanding who God has called us to be, and practising what it means to live a life of mission.

2011 AGM election results
At its Annual General Meeting (AGM), the church elects people to serve in various roles. Here are the results for this year:
Church wardens
There were two nominations for two posts, so no election was required. The wardens this year will be Bern Leckie and Simon Thorne.
Deanery Synod
There were four nominations for four posts, so again no election was required. The church's representatives at the City Deanery Synod will be John Goodgame, Jill Kells, Bern Leckie and Andrew Macpherson.
Parochial Church Council (PCC)
Two places were reserved for under-25s; Ashley Haggan and Andrew Stansbury were elected. People serving in certain roles are automatically on the PCC, and the rest was elected as normal.
As we have been seeking God's will for our future, long serving Pip n Jay members have also shared inspiration from the past.
An authentic source of the story of Pip n Jay's development in the 1960s and '70s is this series of talks given by the late Rev Malcolm Widdecombe in 1975, part of the extensive church audio archive curated by Steve March.
The PCC held eleven meetings in the year since its election at Pip n Jay's 2010 Annual General Meeting.
Here are the minutes of these meetings. Please note that these are the original documents - they may be subject to minor corrections which are noted in the next meeting's minutes if so.
