| Zimbabwe was over – £7000. | |

| with PA systems and outreaches were | |
| done in Masvingo, a city in | |
| southeastern Zimbabwe and the capital | |
| of Masvingo Province, Harare | |
| Eastview, St Marys, Gweru, Bulawayo | |
| and Shurugwi. | |
| iii. | 2023-2024 year was full of activities |
| for the BOLIM Zimbabwe as the church | |
| continues to attain greater stability. The | |
| planted branches in Chitungwiza and | |
| Eastview experienced mixed fortunes. | |
| The Chitungwiza church saw modest | |
| growth, they have been promised a | |
| secure meeting venue at a school in St | |
| Marys. This is expected to result in | |
| increased attendances. | |
| iv. | Unfortunately one of the leaders |
| suddenly lost a 3-year-old son due to | |
| an electrical fault during that time. The | |
| church supported them during this | |
| difficult time. | |
| v. | In the Eastview branch in Harare, not |
| much progress occurred due to | |
| problems with venues. The Shurugwi | |
| branch is currently reassessing its | |
| option as meeting has met with | |
| setbacks. | |
| vi. | The August 2023 annual Conferences |
| were cancelled due to a suspected | |
| nationwide unknown viral outbreak. | |
| Only Outreaches and localised | |
| gatherings were possible. Once again | |
| Senior Pastor Tapiwamunashe Nduna, | |
| UK based, managed to go and support | |
| the churches. The focus of the trip was |
| to train leaders and find ways of |
|---|
| meaningful engagement with the |
| communities. |
| vii. Plans for setting up assemblies in |
| Bulawayo and Gweru were set back as |
| a result of the prevailing restrictions on |
| gatherings as a result of the viral |
| outbreak though members attend home |
| cell groups. Our prayers for peaceful |
| elections across Zimbabwe were |
| answered. |
| viii. Outstanding Actions agreed upon |
| include: |
| (a) Set up governing document aligned the |
| Zimbabwean constitution. |

BREAD OF LIFE INTERNATIONAL MINISTRIES FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 TREASURER'S STATEMENT I have prepared the financial statements on pages I to 7 for the year ended 31 March 2024 ..Treasurer INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT I report on the financial statements of BREAD OF LIFE INTERNATIONAL MINISTrIES for the year ended 31 March 2024, which are setout on pages I to 6. Respective responsibilrties The church is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements, and considers that the audit requirement of Section 4312) of the Charities Att 1993 Ithe Act) does not apply. It is my responsibility to state, on the basis of procedures specrfied in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under Section 43{7llb} of the Art, whether particular matters have come to my attention. Bas of Independent Examiner's report My examination was carried out in accordance wth the General Directions of the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the church and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures In the financial statements, and seeking explanations concernin8 any such matters. The proUreS undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be requlred in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view wven by the financial statements. Independent Examiner's statement In connection with my examination of the church funds. nothing came to my attention which gave me cause to believe otherwise than that the financial statements accord with the accounting records of the church, and that those records satisfied the requirements of the Act. l am not aware of any matter to which attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper urKlerSdIng of the financial statements to be reached.
