## **General Overview** 

Gospel Light International Church (GLIC) is a Pentecostal church and a UK-registered charity dedicated to advancing the Kingdom of God. Our mission is threefold: to gather souls, equip and empower believers, and send them out to serve in ministry and community life. We are a family and community-centred church, committed to strengthening families, building communities, and sharing the transformative message of Jesus Christ. 

## **Public Benefit** 

The Trustees confirm that they have complied with their duty to have due regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit. 

Gospel Light International Church serves the community through a wide range of charitable and spiritual programmes — offering spiritual, emotional, and practical support to individuals and families in need, irrespective of background or belief. 

## **Key Achievements**

We invested in the educational development of children, youth, and adults through: **Tutoring Programmes:** Over 70 participants improved literacy and numeracy skills, resulting in measurable academic progress. 

**Personal Development Workshops:** More than 80 individuals attended sessions on job readiness, interview skills, financial literacy, and soft skills, empowering them for success in employment and life. 

## **4. Marital and Family Counselling** 

We provided counselling and pastoral care to over 50 families, equipping couples with tools for stronger, faith-based relationships and fostering emotional and relational stability within homes. 

## **Women’s Empowerment** 

Our women’s empowerment programme was launched to train and support women in entrepreneurship, self-confidence, and personal growth — serving both church members and the wider community. 

## **6. Social Activities: Family Beach Trip – August 2025** 

Our annual family beach trip to Hastings brought together over 80 members and friends for a joyful day of fellowship and fun. Highlights included **:** 

**Sand & Spirit:** Children built sandcastles while youth leaders shared faith stories on resilience. **Games & Praise:** Friendly competitions and spontaneous praise sessions filled the air with joy. 

**Legacy Moments:** Families wrote prayers on seashells — a symbolic act of renewal and faith. 

It was truly a day of laughter, unity, and gratitude — “a touch of heaven on earth.” 

## **7. Relief of Poverty & Health Support** 

Through our mother church in Ghana, we supported initiatives aimed at alleviating poverty and promoting community well-being. Locally, we offered free health screenings to over 150 individuals in partnership with healthcare providers. 

## **8. Community Outreach and Evangelism** 

We actively engaged with our local neighbourhood through events such as community barbecues and youth outreach. Conversations are underway with a local youth hostel to codevelop support programmes for young people. 

Plans are also in progress to host workshops on mental health, addiction recovery, and stress management, providing holistic care for our community. 

## **9. Leadership Training** 

In July, we hosted a dynamic Leadership Training Conference, equipping both emerging and established leaders with spiritual insight and practical tools.

Workshops covered topics such as Leading with Integrity, Vision Casting, Strategic Planning, and Building Resilient Teams. Feedback was overwhelmingly positive, and this event will now be held annually as part of our leadership development programme. 

## **10. Governance and Compliance** 

In January, a one-day training session was held for trustees, leaders, and members on governance, compliance, and charity law updates. 

## **Key areas covered included:** 

Charity governance and safeguarding Financial control and risk management Data protection and confidentiality 

The training reinforced our commitment to integrity, transparency, and accountability in all church operations. 

## **Board of Trustees** 

The Board of Trustees continues to serve faithfully as stewards of GLIC’s mission, resources, and vision. With diverse expertise in ministry, finance, compliance, and community development, the Board ensures effective governance and spiritual oversight. 

Trustees meet regularly to review strategy, assess risks, and support the leadership team. Their service reflects both administrative diligence and pastoral care ensuring that every decision advances Gospel Light’s mission of transformation and discipleship. 

## **Church Renovation Project** 

To accommodate growth and enhance ministry capacity, the church began a major renovation in March 2025. 

## **Key Improvements:** 

Enhanced acoustics, lighting, and seating in the main sanctuary Accessibility features including ramps and modernised restrooms Upgraded kitchen and fellowship hall 

Expanded children’s ministry and multipurpose youth wing Dedicated prayer and counselling rooms 

A welcoming foyer for fellowship and hospitality 

Funded through member contributions, this project is not merely structural — it is a spiritual investment in people, purpose, and community impact. 

## **Strategic Goals (Next 3 Years)** 

Guided by Ephesians 4:1–16, Gospel Light International Church aims to be a thriving, Spiritfilled community rooted in love, service, and discipleship. Our strategic goals include: 

- Expanding outreach and discipleship programmes

It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters.  The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
