## EMMANUEL PENTECOSTAL CHURCH
Caris Street, Gateshead, UK
ANNUAL REPORT for 2022 - 2023
Charity Number 1052113
After all the upheaval of COVID with its limitations, this accounting year has been a year where we have not been affected at all. So we have been able to run all our usual activity both on a Sunday and during the week.
We also commenced to run our Coffee Morning on a weekly basis rather than bi-weekly which are intended to be a form of outreach into the local community.
We have continued during this year to support a local food bank in the town of Gateshead, and we regularly hold a gospel service on the Sunday evening with the purpose of reaching our local community with the gospel.
We still produce a regular video to send out to those who are unable to attend the Church fellowship, and the pastor still sends out a daily devotion for all who wish to receive it, a practise which was started at the beginning of the first lockdown.
We have begun to see an increase in the number of those attending the Church on a regular basis.
As a Charity and a local Church we have been supporting various mission organisations over a number of years and continue to do so, they are Platform 67, Emmanuel Press and Claire Kinkead an AoG missionary in Jamaica. We have also been able to send humanitarian aid to victims of the war in the Ukraine via contacts our pastor had in Hungary. This year we have also started to support an organization that is local to our area, The Christian Institute, Newcastle, but has an input with Christian organizations throughout the United Kingdom.
