PCC & Governance
Annual Church Meeting 2023 (APCM)
Our 2023 Annual Church Meeting (APCM) will be held on Sunday 30th April at 10.30am as part of our Morning Service.
Electoral Roll
We’re part of the Church of England, which means that our structures of governance and accountability are set by the Church Representation Rules.
If you live in the parish or a regular member of our worshipping community and are aged 16 or over, we would encourage to join the electoral roll. This allows you to vote and stand for election to our church council (PCC).
Our next revision of the electoral roll will take place between Sunday 2nd April and Saturday 15th April 2023, with the deadline for applications being Sunday 9th April.
If you would like to complete the form by PDF or Word, please save and return your completed form as an attachment to admin@stlaurences.org by Sunday 9th April or print and post to the address below. Paper versions are available in the church building at services.

PCC
The PCC are 9 elected representatives from the church electoral roll. 1/3 of the PCC are elected each year at the Annual meeting (APCM) to serve for 3 years. They act as charitable trustees and custodians of the church finances. They meet around 6 times a year together with the clergy & churchwardens to set direction, agree expenditure, review policy & practice, take a lead on safeguarding, and work together to promote the mission of the church in the parish.
Approved Minutes from previous PCC meetings are available on request by emailing pccsecretary@stlaurences.org
