Annual Report for the year ended 31 May 2025
The Mount Moriah Trust is constituted by Deed of Trust and was first registered on 28" May 2002. This year we welcomed Mr Michael Spooner who joined as a trustee in October 2024. The trustees who served during the year to 31** May 2024 were:
Mr Anthony Stewart (Chairman) Mrs Kathleen Stewart Ms Sally Williams Mr Stephen Briggs Mr Richard Teideman Mr Peter Lovegrove Mr Michael Spooner
The Mount Moriah Trust is a Christian Charity providing relief from hardship and suffering for believers in Jesus Christ in Israel, Gaza and the West Bank. Every penny donated goes to the needy — nothing is taken out. Administration, operational costs, travel and expenses are all funded privately. MMT operates with due regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit but does not operate a reserves policy as there are no staff, overheads or operational costs.
The war with Hamas in Gaza, involving thousands of reservists being called up, has had a severe impact on family life and has created financial hardship for many. Many small businesses have gone to the wall. Arab Christians in Judea and Samarea (the West Bank) have suffered through the withdrawal of permits to work inside Israel. Iranian missiles inflicted considerable damage and around 10,000 people have been left homeless. The Christians in Gaza have been sheltering in two church compounds but have managed to do extraordinary work to feed thousands of people each week. We have been privileged to provide funds to support them and their outreach.
MMT’s primary focus remains on providing humanitarian support to the needy, particularly the elderly, widows, the sick, single mothers, children, the youth and new immigrants. We have partnerships with around forty Pastors, Congregations and Christian Organisations. The Lord has touched hearts across the world to give generously and we have been able to provide significant help through our partners.
We continue to receive amazing support from overseas and this year 52% of our income originated from outside the UK. Income this year was £180,714 and gifting to the Land was £175,420. We carry a healthy balance of £26,299 into FY25/26. The Administration & Projects account, which is funded privately and not taken from donations, carried forward a balance of £54.
