FRS 1021 issued in October 2019.
Objects of the charity
Christ Church Central was "born" in October 2003 a5"a church for people who don't go to church". The church
is reformed. evangelical and Anglican and seeks to remain faithful to the ancient creeds. the Church of England's
39 Articles of Religion and the doctrines of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer.
The objects of the charity are-
to advance the Christian faith in accordance with the charitys statement of beliefs in Sheffield and in such
other parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the directors of the charity may from time to time think
fit and to fulfil such other purposes which are exclusively charitable according to the law of England and
Wales and are connected with the charitable work of the charity,.
to relieve persons who are in conditions of need or hardship or who are aged or sick and to relieve the
distress caused thereby in Sheffield and in such other parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the
directors may from time to time think fit.
As a spiritual family of people committed to Jesus and one another. when we meet together to study the bible,
pray and sing, we try to do so in ways that are accessible. relevant, understandable and welcoming. As a city
centre church. our mission field includes the'new builds" of central Sheffield- the friends and networks of church
members; families, children and youth; students from the UK and overseas; and the homeless and vulnerable
within our neighbourhood.
Structure, governance and management
The organisation is a company limited by guarantee and a registered charity.
The Articles of Association provide for at least 3 directors. Directors have the power to appoint other directors.
The total number of directors during the year was 6. All director5 are required to assent annually to the church's
statement of belief. The responsibility for the overall strategy. policy. finance and appointments of the charity

3 meetings. The church oversight team ICOTI which meets monthly. has operational oversight of all the church's
activities and is responsible to the directors.

Review of Activities
The church continues to be led by Rt. Rev. rim Davies. He is assisted by Associate Ministers Tim Sandell. who
also has responsibility for our student ministry, and Steven Kin& who a150 has responsibility for our work with
youth and children.
The focus of church activity remains the sharing of the Christian Gospel message with those who haven't heard
it (Gospel growthl and the growing to maturity in faith of existing believers Ichristian growth). As part of the
Anglican Mission in England IAMIEI the church receives spiritual and pastoral oversight and enjoys partnership
with a number of like-minded churches and Christians in the UK and further afield. In 2022 Tim Davies was
consecrated as an Assistant Bishop. a role that he combines with his responsibilities at Central.
The two weekly church meetings on a Sunday at 10-30am {with children's activities) and 6pm remain the main
focus of regular activity, together with a monthly church family praise and prayer meeting. Attendance on
Sundays is typically 200 in the morning {including children) and 50 - 70 in the evening. Small groups IGospel
teams) are the building blocks for church family life and these meet m05t weeks for bible study, prayer,
fellowship and outreach.
The Staff and Church Oversight Team. with input from the church family, have continued to progress work on
delivering our "Strategic Resolves" to give focus and direction for the church's activities over the next five years
and to ensure that Central remains "a church for people who don't go to church ... in the heart of the city with a
heart for the city."
Through the year. the church has seen development in several key ministry areas. These include:
students from both the University of Sheffield and Sheffield Hallam University meeting weekly for Bible study
and fellowship on a Sunday as well as receiving individual support through the week.
we have a significant number of asylum seekers coming to church, both those who are already Christian and
those seeking to find out about Christianity. The regular ministry for and by our Iranian members, some of whom
are asylum seekers, has matured and there is a weekly group for other refugees at which a warm welcome is
extended and the Christian faith shared. As at the year-end we were actively engaged in seeking to raise external
funding to appoint a dedicated member of staff to help grow this ministry area, and we were pleased to make
such an appointment following the year end in May 2025 for an initial term of one year. We hope to be able to
extend this term provided sufficient funding can be secured.
- support and engagement with families, both from within the church membership and outside including regular
Sunday groups for all ages, weekly Bible studies for youth, and young teens and children's holiday clubs. The
desire is to reach increasing numbers of families local to the city centre as well as regular church members.
There is also continuing involvement with a number of community support groups underthe general description
of "Mercy Ministries" including Burngreave Foodbank. Sheffield Pregnancy Counselling Support and Galeed
House.
The church continues to support Global Gospel Partners and ministries across the world.
Public Benefit Statement
The directors confirm that they have referred to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit when
reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning future activities. and in particular, the specific
guidance on charities for the advancement of religion.

Future Plans
We have developed"Resolves" in which we Set out the kind of church we sensed God calling us to be in Sheffield
City Centre. Here are two things:
To be a loving. countercultural, and public sanctuary where we can be vulnerable about weaknesses,
where broken people are welcome and where disagreements and rebukes are managed graciously and for good.
To proclaim and share the whole counsel of God, the Bible, with believers, unbelievers, women. men
and children of any ethnicity, culture, background, religion, and lifestyle.
We praise the Lord for the numerical growth and significant ethnic diver5ification that we have experienced. We
re-dedicate ourselves in the coming year to prayin& discussin& thinking. and figuring out what it means to be
an intercultural church familv.
