## **Reports and Accounts for the year ended  31ST MARCH 2022 Trustees Report** 

The trustees presents its annual report and the unaudited financial statements for the period. 

The year 2021 -2022 was themed “Overflow”. We are grateful to God for the Overflow testimonies we experienced as a Church community especially after the lockdown. 

## **Challenges Faced:** 

**Attendance** : After the lockdown, the onsite attendance has not been the way it was before, but we are grateful that it greatly improved. 

**Staffing** : As we recover from the pandemic, we had to lay-off some members of the staff. 

## **Successes Achieved:** 

**Online and Onsite Services** : Both our Online and Onsite services have greatly improved both in numbers and quality. We are now experiencing the benefits of Online services which is turning be a great blessing and greatly impacting our Onsite attendance. 

**Destiny Team** : We have a great team of volunteers who were tirelessly working behind the scenes to make the year a great success. This year we have seen many join the team to serve in any capacity and this is a great blessing. In fact, we are where we are because of how strong the team 

**Conference:** Our annual “Destiny Conference”, themed, ‘Overflow’ was a great success. Many turned up online and onsite for the three days. 

**Carol service:** Our Christmas Splendour (Carol service) was great. We had both the band and the children minister greatly. It was also a blessing to see the community join us in this event. 

**Welfare** : We managed to cater to our congregants’ physical needs by providing food and financial help to those who were in need especially after the pandemic. We also donated food items to the community through the ‘Foodbank’.  We also managed to help our international churches financially especially after the pandemic. 

**Concert** : This year we had two concerts: ‘Alive Concert’ during Easter and ‘Destiny Concert’ during the conference. The turnout was amazing, and the atmosphere was great. 

We look forward to a new year themed; “Build to Last”. We will empower God’s people with the Word and necessary materials that will help them to build a life that will last regardless of any challenges thrown to them.

## **for the year ended  31ST MARCH 2022 Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity for the above period. 

## **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.
