E. Achievements and Performance

On Sundays we held two services. In the morning our Memorial Service is for worship, exhortation and the Breaking of Bread. After a shared lunch, we then held a service to preach the Gospel. Both of these services were available online for those unable to attend for whatever reason.

These services were also translated into Farsi in live time by an online translator for the benefit of a large number of Iranian Members and visitors at the service or joining remotely.

We ran Sunday School classes for children of various ages.

On a Wednesday we held a Bible Study session online.

We held an annual Fraternal gathering and also a Youth Weekend, welcoming visitors from around the country for Bible encouragement and fellowship.

Our website continued to be developed, to explain what we believe and also provide resources and links to further information.

F.Financial review

The cash movements and balances are summarised below. The Ecclesia does not have a reserves policy. All funds are held in instant access accounts. The balance in these accounts at the end of the year was considered sufficient to meet the ongoing expenses of the Ecclesia. Contributions from Members are made through standing order and other payments with taxpayers encouraged to use Gift Aid provision.
