counselling services, Food/clothes distribution to the homeless/needy,
Hospital visitation/prayer services for the sick, Drop-in video recreation
centre for the aged and Weekly Street Community Outreaches. These
activities benefit the public by providing Christian resources and services
for spiritual, socio-economic and moral well-being, which help
beneficiaries live a crime-free and fulfilled life. All our activities are
offered absolutely free-of-charge and are open to any interested member
of the wider public regardless of ethnic, social, economic or religious
background.
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the lock-down imposed by the
government during periods of the year, these activities had to be
curtailed. As with the previous year, we also carried out some ad hoc
activities, especially delivering shopping and providing telephone
counselling for the aged and vulnerable people that were adversely
affected by the pandemic. We are glad that we were again able to
contribute our quota to the government and community initiatives to help
people through the pandemic.

The charity is non-grant making. However, occasional gifts/donations
may be considered to support charitable causes that are in line with the
charity’s objects.
For its successful day-to-day operations the charity relies hugely on
contributions made by volunteers which are drawn from the pool of its
beneficiaries.

Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main During the year, and within the limitations imposed by the government's achievements of the charity Covid-19 pandemic lockdowns, the charity successfully ran most of its during the year regular on-going activities as highlighted in the Summary of Main Activities above. Our well-structured Bible Study classes continue to gain increasing popularity within the community with more and more participants joining in. The classes provide beneficiaries with well-balanced life-application teachings which are designed to help each individual gain the understanding that is necessary to live a practical and fulfilling Christian life. As with the previous year, we had to move the classes online for most part of the year because of the lockdown restrictions imposed by the government due to the Covid-19 pandemic. We are glad to report that the online hosting of the classes was a huge success, as it provided a great source of comfort and encouragement to many during the stressful lockdown periods. We continue to receive encouraging reports from many beneficiaries of our services who heartily express their gratitude to the charity for how their lives are being remarkably changed for the better through personal application of the Christian principles they learn whilst participating in our activities. Our Prayer and Counselling Services, which, for most periods of the year, were carried out remotely by telephone due to the Covid-19 pandemic restrictions, also recorded a steady increase in number of beneficiaries as word continues to spread in the community about their effectiveness. As with the previous years, we again received a few prayer requests from some non-Christians within the community. We are grateful to God that our activities are clearly bringing beneficial changes to people’s lives regardless of their faith. Our weekly Church Fellowship meetings on the evenings of Wednesdays and Fridays as well as Sunday mornings provide good opportunity for families to worship God together and be refreshed in an atmosphere of Christian love and unity. These services were moved online for most periods of the year due to the government restrictions imposed as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. The Weekly Street Community Outreach programme which the charity started a few years ago, could only be carried out during the latter parts of the year, as the lockdown restrictions were eased by the government. The opportunity it provides for all interested passers-by to receive free on-the-spot counselling and advice, as well as other relevant support within the scope of the Charity’s objects, has always been well embraced by many people who are resident within the local community that the charity serves. A report based on a recent survey which the charity carried out on the community benefits of this outreach programme and several similar feedbacks received from those who have stopped by to use the programme, was quite encouraging. The income/expenditure balance of the charity during the year shows a positive amount of two thousand six hundred and ninety five pounds. As with the previous year, the positive balance this year is largely due to the Covid-19 support grants that the charity received. During the year, three new Trustees (Emmanuella Abraham, Deborah Abraham, and Hannah Abraham) were appointed on 26 April 2021.

Section D Achievements and performance

However, two of them (Deborah Abraham and Hannah Abraham) only served briefly, as they resigned their Trusteeship to the charity with effect from 27 December 2021. We thank all of them for their contributions to the progress of the charity, and wish those who had to resign, every success in their future endeavours.

Finally, we would like to express our profound gratitude to all our members and beneficiaries who consistently showed great commitment in their financial and moral support to the charity during the year. The charitable hearts of these wonderful people are a tremendous blessing to the charity and the community that it serves.
