Trustees Annual Report for the year ended 30th September 2022
OCTOBER 2021 – DECEMBER 2021
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 2021 was ending, we had to hold our usual NEW YEAR’S EVE SERVICE online on Zoom and other platforms. Social distancing and other Covid-19 regulations were all being enforced at all times.
JANUARY 2022 – MARCH 2022
The usual winter season of fasting and prayer was done by the church in January, from Sunday 8th January to Saturday 5th February. This ended with a DAY RETREAT at the Akwaaba Centre for our members. 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 centre. For the times that we were legally allowed to Congregate on-site at AKWAABA CENTRE, for worship and community engagements, we followed all governmental regulations and guidelines for Social Distancing and Covid-19 prevention measures.
APRIL 2022 – JUNE 2022
With the COVID-19 Pandemic and its consequent complications for all of society, Church activities and income was disrupted. However, as the regulations were eased and congregational gatherings returned, we upgraded our systems for online engagement of our community. Furthermore, the P.A systems and Musical Instruments were upgraded. As many of our community were being directly and indirectly affected by COVID-19, Online daily evening prayer meetings and weekly Bible Study, continued steadfastly, in addition to our usual Sunday Service.
JULY 2022 – SEPTEMBER 2022
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. The year in review was a very difficult time for many families as COVID wreaked great havoc. As a charitable organisation, we continued 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 tried our best to adapt to the new Hybrid Church reality that had ensued but discovered that church attendance had considerably dropped post-covid. 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.
