Ob'ectives and activities
The Gospel of Jesus Christ has been proclaimed to Japanese people in the UK for some 49 years by
members of JCF.
Rev. Ken Cowell continues to be a trustee from 2015 as an assisting pastor.
Mr Fukuda has started as new Paster on 1st August 2024 and as result Rev Keiichiro's role as advising
paster came to an end: Mr Fukada graduated from theological college and is in a period of curacy to
gain practical experience of being a pastor at JCF before he can be ordained by his denomination in
Japan.
Mr Satoshi Fukuda appointed new to be a trustee from 1st August 2024.
Achievements and erforniance
JCF'S main worship service was held every Sunday afternoon mostly via Zoom. Numbers have
averaged about 30 for each service with people joining from different parts of the UK and some from
other parts of Europe: We have held 20 in person worship services during the year with average
attendance of about 20. At some of these meetings we participated in Holy Communion.
Since the arrival of our new pastor in the summer, the regular monthly pattern for services has been 2
Zoom meetings, I hybrid (in person and Zoom option) meeting at JCF house and I hybrid meeting at
an All Souls Church meeting room in Central London and we plan to continue this.
The membership at the end of March 2025 stands at 15 (15 in the previous year). One person has left
but another person joined.
JCF organises 3 monthly house group meetings located in Reading, Bromley and Queensbury for
Bible study, fellowship and prayer. There is also a weekly online prayer meeting:
JCF and its pastors have served the Japanese community in the UK by pastoring and helping those in
need according to the Fellowship's Constitution. Sessions of counselling and advice have been
provided to numerous individuals.
5 people travelled from JCF to the annual gathering of Japanese Christians in Europe held in Stuttgart
in Gemiany in from 25th to 28th July.

for the year ended 31st March 2025
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity ("the Trust")
for the year ended 31st March 2025 which are set out on pages 5 to 9:
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in
accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ("the Act").
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under section 145 of
the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable
Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my
attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in, any
material respect:
the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the
Charities Act. or
the accounts did not accord with the accounting records. or
the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the
form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports)
Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and
.fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the
examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper
understanding of the accounts to be reached.
