Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) Faith Chapel TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

The year witnessed the emergence of a one in a lifetime viral pandemic, termed ‘Coronavirus (COVID 19). The outbreak of the COVID 19 brought every economic, social and political structures to a virtual standstill adversely affecting every walk of lives. The pandemic was hot on the heels of the uncertainty caused by the Brexit in the preceding two years. The church worldwide was not ‘shield’ from this and had to adapt, adjust and align to new technological platforms (ZOOM) complimented by FACEBOOK to continue to propagate the gospel.

For Faith Chapel, this was also the same and we were able to adhere to various UK Government restriction guidance instituted to reduce the incidence of infection and ultimate deaths. The church services were held online via the Zoom and FACEBOOK Platforms when the first lockdown was announced to commence on the 23[rd] of March 2020. The church instituted the following measures in preparation of the easing of the first lockdown in June 2020:

The church continued to monitor the UK Government data, pronouncement and events in the country and returned to the physical service in August 2020 but still retained the online Zoom service for those who were not comfortable to physically attend. A second lockdown announced by the UK Government in December 2020, which made the church to return to full online service, but regular cleaning and maintenance of the church facilities was maintained.

Though the level and number of community programmes were reduced as lockdown measure were pronounced by the UK Government, the church was able to still organise programs and events to achieve its mission of ‘reaching out and making a visible impact by extending love of God to people within its immediate community and beyond.

1. Community Action Group

One of the key functions of the CAG is ‘Feeding the Hungry’ held every fortnight with the sole purpose of providing hot meals, sandwiches, teas, coffees and drinks to the vulnerable living within and outside Lewisham area. During the first lockdown, this activity was temporary stopped but resumed during the second lockdown with lesser restriction by just handing over foods to the service users without the options to sit down. One major funding initiative was the registration of the charity with the LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOUR UK government initiative to financial reimburse charities providing foods and other basic household items to the homeless and less privilege.

PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS

Church services to be held both in the physical church and through the online ZOOM platform.

A wider audience and investment in online streaming, sermon uploads in social media (e.g., ZOOM, Facebook) as well as providing a COVID 19 free church environment to members wanting to attend the physical church.

Increase number of partnerships with UK charities, though we presently support Compassion UK in children education

Greater emphasis to be placed in supporting missions’ fields in improvised communities in the world.

Seminars, workshops and training that will cut across all spheres of living such as employability, education, health, finances, marriages etc. will be organized for the local community as target audience

Scheduled visitation of the homeless, hospitals, nursing homes; and inmates in prisons

Establishment of a new parish for the advancement of the Kingdom of God is still on- going and ministers will be trained with the requisite skills and the church doctrine

The church will continue to operate in a risk- free environment within the church building and its premises in order to maintain a safe and healthy environment for the users by carrying out a risk assessment of it processes premises and procedures. Avocations for members and visitors to continue to follow the COVID guidelines set by the UK Government

Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) Faith Chapel INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT

Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) Faith Chapel

I report on the accounts of Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) Faith Chapel for the year ended 31 December 2020 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Summary Income and Expenditure Account, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows and the related notes.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under the Charities Act 2011, s.144(2) (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:

examine the accounts under s.145 of the 2011 Act;

to follow procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under s.145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and

to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of independent examiner's report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination 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 you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a "true and fair" view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:

have not been met: or
