## **FLAMING EVANGELICAL MINISTRIES UK**
## **Trustees Annual Report for the year ended 30th September 2020**
## **OCTOBER 2019 – DECEMBER 2019**
The church successfully carried out its usual calendar activities including specific programs done by separate groups within the church, all of which were viewed as successful.
As the year 2019 was ending, we held our usual joint New Year’s Eve service with the New Testament Assembly of Deptford, that was well attended by both congregations and people from the community.
## **JANUARY 2020 – MARCH 2020**
The usual winter season of fasting and prayer was done by the church in January, but we could not end it with our usual trip to a retreat center, as venues were unavailable for our dates. Instead, we held an Online 70 hours prayer event from Thursday 4th to Sunday 7th February. We made use of free conference call, Zoom video platform, and Facebook live video to give our members and guests access at the various times we were broadcasting.
Those who attended expressed that it was a wonderful spiritual experience, and more people could make it who would normally not be able to make it to a retreat center.
The Announcement by Government of a Lockdown due to COVID-19 caused a suspension of all congregational gatherings from last Sunday of March 2020.
## **APRIL 2020 – JUNE 2020**
With the COVID-19 Pandemic and its consequent complications for all of society, cHi hurch activities and income was disrupted. We therefore had to upgrade our systems for online engagement of our community. As many of our community were being directly and indirectly affected by COVID-19, Online daily evening prayer meetings and weekly Bible Study, were added to our usual Sunday Service.
As we were not using the Rented Premises for our activities in this season, we were able to secure a three months Rent Holiday for June to August of 2020, and we proposed to reduce our rent by scaling down on our contracted times of use of the premises.
## **JULY 2020 – SEPTEMBER 2020**
We continued to focus our activities online in a bid to engage our community continually through the difficulties that all were experiencing due to COVID. Various vulnerable and elderly members of our community were helped in diverse ways at this time.
Our rent of the Akwaaba Center was also considerably reduced in regard to our membership and income.
2020 was a very difficult time for many families as COVID wreaked great havoc. As a charitable organisation, we had to adapt to the changing dynamics of engaging our faith community, as well as ensuring that all were spiritually, morally and socially helped through these challenging times.
We continue to thank God and continue to be faithful and hopeful in prayer and diligent action that this would turn around positively for us. The Trustees continue to focus on carrying out the duties that would bring our vision to fruition even as we are reaching out to forming relationships and networks with ministries in various nations of the earth.
We thank God for His continuing grace to us and for our faithful and committed members.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees and Members**
We report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 30 September 2020 which are set out on the annexed pages.
## **Respective Responsibilities of the Trustees and Examiner**
The Trustees of the Charity are responsible for the preparation of the accounts; and consider that the audit requirement of section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 does not apply and that an independent examination is needed. It is our responsibility to:
- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
- to follow the procedures specified in general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act, and
- to state whether particular matters have come to our attention.
## **Basis of Independent Examiner's Report**
Our examination was carried out in accordance with general directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. 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 we do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
## **Independent Examiner's Statement**
In connection with our examination, no matter has come to our attention:
- 1) Which gives us reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act;
- and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met;
or
- 2) To which, in our opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
