Particularly, we ensure that the people in the community live out of their faith as part of our community through worship, prayers, learning the word of God, advancing their knowledge and trust in Jesus Christ. We also provide pastoral care as part of our commitment to the community. To facilitate this work to the community it is of utmost importance to ensure that we always have a place to worship, currently we meet at Reading Girls’ School for Saturday and Sunday services, but we are working towards purchasing our own PLace of worship.

For example, The Tuesday prayers which are dedicated to praying for the church and the members in the community. Taking part in this session are all the church workers and leaders, and members find it extremely beneficial. The Thursday prayers which is for the entire church provides an atmosphere for members to bring their supplication to the Lord in prayer and has been yielding results.

youth camp organised by AoG National for an engaging and educative fellowships with other youth from sister AoG churches across the country. The Saturday in-person prayers provide a great opportunity for members to come and pour out their heart to the Lord. Our Sunday service has provided an intimate and powerful environment for prayer, praises and worship, which members of the community greatly appreciate and engage in
## **Growth**
This year too, we have been successful in welcoming more families into our church community which saw an increase in attendance to our church services. The new convert class has helped new members totally come to faith and then youth too engaged through the teaching and understanding of our statements of faith. We also had a joint service during our Easter convention where all the campuses came together in Reading for an impacted service and saw a very good number of people attending..
We welcome everyone to attend our regular services, and in view of that, by the date of this report, there were about 610 members-both regular and irregular spread across the three campuses, By the Grace of God we also inaugurated two more campuses in Oxford and Aldershot in December 2024.
This growth has been made possible by the Grace God and also the availability of our volunteers-Church Board, those who tidy up the church, Departmental leaders, instrumentalist, Choir, Marriage counsellors, Tower, Children teachers, Sunday school teachers, ushers who served and continue to The average weekly attendance, counted during the year, was 250, but this number increased.
## **Pastoral Care**
At Power of Faith AoG Church, we know that, at some point in life, everyone travels a difficult journey or situation. Whether grief, depression, loss, sickness, loneliness or more, people sometimes travel this path alone, not having anyone they feel they can turn to, during this time the lead Pastor and other pastors provide Pastoral care through prayers, support and counselling

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO
POWER OF FAITH ASSEMBLIES OF GOD CHURCH, READING.
This report on the Accounts of the CHURCH for the YEAR to 31 December 2024, which
are set out on two pages, is in respect of an examination carried out under Regulation
3(3) of the Church Accounting Regulations 1997 and s.43 of the Charities Act 1993.
Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner:
As Trustees of the Church you are responsible for the preparation of the Accounts. and
you consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 3(3) of the Church Accounting
Regulations 1997 and section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act) do not apply.
It is my responsibility to issue this report on those Accounts in accordance with the
terms of Regulation 25 of the Church Accounting Regulations 1997 and Regulation 7 of
the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 1995.
Basis of Independent Examiner's Report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the
Charity Commission under section 43(7) (b) of the Act, found in the Guidance from the
Central Board of Finance. That examination included a review of the Accounting
Records kept by the Church and a comparison of the Accounts with those Records. It
also included consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the Accounts and
seeking explanations from you as Trustees concerning any such matters.
The
procedures undertaken did not provide all the evidence required in an audit, and
consequently I have not expressed an audit opinion on the view given by the
Accounts.
Independent Examiner's Statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
(l)Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the
requirements
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the Act. and
to prepare Accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply
with the requirements of the Act, as contained in the Church Accounting
Regulations 1997 have not been met. or
(2)To which in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper
understanding of the Accounts to be reached.
Signed
Mr Kwame Amponsah-Antwi Bsc (Hons) MSC MSC FCCA CDipAF
