ANNUAL REPORT OF GRACE CHRISTIAN CENTRE 2023/24 ACHIEVEMENT IN RELATION TO ITS OBJECTIVES
The church has achieved all its related objectives for the financial year ended 31 March 2024.
The Advancement of Christianity
Our evangelism outreach consisted of regularly organising events to preach the gospel and show love to our local community. As a result of this people in the community have come to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. We are financially supporting mission work in East Africa reaching out to orphans, widows and the needy in five rural communities in Uganda.
We counsel members of the church who encounter various emotional, physical and spiritual problems. We organised special programs for church members to provide spiritual upliftment and nurture.
The Relief of Poverty, Sickness and Distress of those in need by virtue of their social and or economic circumstances
We have helped single mothers out of financial difficulties to pay for childcare and nursery fees. Low income and unemployed members are also regularly financially supported in various areas such as subsistence, travel and accommodation.
The Advancement of Education of Young Persons
Our missions program enables us to financially sponsor several children and young people in their primary, vocational and university education.
