Summary of the purposes of the
charity as set out in its
governing document		 Para 1.17 To advance the Christian religion for the benefit
of the public via evangelism, fellowships, Sunday
services, outreach programs, outdoor faith
camps and missions. Helping communities
through fund raising projects, charity events,
grant, and sponsorships.
Summary of the main activities
in relation to those purposes for
the public benefit the activities,
projects or services identified in
the accounts.		 Para 1.17 and
1.19		 When planning our activities for the year, the
Trustees and Members (Church Elders) of the
charity
have
considered
the
Charity
Commission’s guidance on public benefit and the
specific
guidance
on
charities
for
the
advancement of religion. The review of activities
below reflects how we have implemented this
through a range of activities, which we consider
to be in line with both this guidance and our
objectives
Worship and Prayer
The Church (JLWC) with its three congregation
(East
Grinstead,
Brighton,
and
Eastbourne) continued
its
mission
of
evangelising people and gathering its members
through fellowship on regular Sunday services
at each respective rented hall (run by the Jubilee
Community Centre at East Grinstead.) The
Sunday
Christian
services
are
aimed
at
encouraging, supporting, lifting, and nurturing
the spiritual lives of its members. In turn, each
individual member of the church is encouraged
to invite their friends to become part of the
Christian community.
Every Monday evening, the church continues to
join the other church branches globally to be one
in spirit as it gathers its members for prayer
intercessory evening. The prayer intercessors
gather all prayer requests and petitions received
by the church on Sunday services and home
visits and lift them all up in prayer.
Bible study groups from the 3 congregations
continue to meet every week to reach those who
may have missed the Sunday service, or are not
church attendees yet, but desire to know more
about the Bible.
Other ministries, like Women of Faith, Men’s
Ministry and Youth ministries continue to meet
monthly to enhance relationships and provide
further spiritual encouragement and support.
The church has continuously reached out to
people to bring hope and strengthen their faith
through:
Worship and prayer,
Teaching through discipleship
Developing their relationship with Jesus
Provision of pastoral care
Outreach programmes
Seminars and Conferences
Online seminar
To enable all these, we hold on to the leading of
the Holy Spirit and the truthful promises of
God.
Pastoral Care
Bishop Norman Ponce regularly visits families
and friends who wished to be prayed over for
healing and spiritual care. Some visits were
made for spiritual advice and before big
decisions were made. Assisted by some Pastors
and Elders of the church, he attends to members
who may be experiencing trying times in family
relationships, job security, spiritual battles, or
financial burdens.
Statement confirming whether
the trustees have had regard to
the guidance issued by the
Charity Commission on public
benefit		 Para 1.18 When planning our activities for the year, the
Trustees and Members (church Elders) of the
charity
have
considered
the
Charity
Commission’s guidance on public benefit and the
specific
guidance
on
charities
for
the
advancement of religion. The review of activities
below reflects how we have implemented this
through a range of activities, which we consider
to be in line with both this guidance and our
objectives.

Achievements and Performance

SORP
reference
Summary of the main
achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity’s work has made to the
circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a whole.		 Para 1.20 Outreach Programs
The
church,
whenever
possible,
extends
material and financial support to families with
immediate needs, to help them be tied over
during difficult times. Throughout the year, fund-
raising activities like sports events, raffle, food
and
various
church
merchandise
sales,
envelope appeals were made to raise funds
for the abused women in the Philippines.
The Church’s charity arm, Love God Love
People (LGLP) was able to visit and handover
the raised funds to the home for abused women
in the Philippines.
Church Leaderships
Training and seminars were regularly conducted
for leaders and ministry heads of the church.
Regular meetings by the council of elders meant
programs and plans were kept on track and
improved
upon.
Members
with
leadership
potentials were encouraged and helped, so that
they
can
be
prepared
for
future
responsibilities.
Mission and Evangelism
Fulfilling the five purposes of JLWC is a part of
our mission.
Mission-We communicate God's Word through
evangelism
Membership-We incorporate God's family into
our fellowship
Maturity-We educate God's people through
discipleship
Ministry-We demonstrate God's love through
service
Magnify-We celebrate God's presence in
worship
Community living
The church has responded to several appeals of
various local civic groups in need of workforce
and assistance, either in cash or kind, like East
Grinstead Council, Brighton and Hove Fil-Brit
Community and Eastbourne Community.
The church is registered with Compassion UK,

aiding a child in Philippines by way of monthly donation. The church continuous to partner with various social and civic groups like Local Global MidSussex, the Filipino-British Nurse Extra Care, Filipino-British Association of Brighton, for workforce and mobility assistance. It has sent delegates to participate in the annual multi-cultural race programs conducted by various civic groups in West Sussex and Brighton. Small gatherings were mentored and supported in places like Hastings, Lewes, Crowborough, Kent, Horsham, and Redhill. The church is continuously supporting MOYA – Ministry of Young Adults, with its goal, to gather young people and young professionals to help them develop their fitness and mental wellbeing and become spiritually mature, by means of Biblical principles. In conjunction with this, the GOYE – Generation of Young Enthusiasts, was also formed for children 12-18. These two groups will ensure trainings, developments and teachings will prepare them to be future church leaders one day.

CHURCH ACTIVITIES The Church is continually looking for strategies to bring help not just to its members but also to the local town, the UK and internationally. This report reflects aspects of each of these three components. In each area of activity, the Trustees recognize, and are sincerely grateful for, the volunteers who contribute so much to all that happens in the life of the church.

Explanation of any
uncertainties about the
charity continuing as a going
concern		 Para 1.23 Going concern
The trustees have assessed whether the use of
the going concern basis is appropriate and have
considered events or conditions that might cast
significant doubt on the ability of the charity to
continue as a going concern. The trustees have
made this assessment for a period of at least
one year from the date of approval of the
financial statements. The trustees have
considered the charity's forecasts and
projections and the possible implications should
projected income and / or expenditure vary
unexpectedly. The trustees have concluded that
there is a reasonable expectation that the
charity has adequate resources to continue to
operate for the foreseeable future. The charity
therefore continues to adopt the going concern
basis inpreparingits financial statements.

IER

Give here brief details of any items that the examiner wishes to disclose .

The following points will help to implement strict financial and administrative controls and thus minimize any risks the charity might be exposed to. The introduction of a Church and Charity accounting software, ‘Expense Plus’, has enabled the Church to streamline its processes efficiently and effectively and transformed the management of its resources.

However, there are still some areas that will benefit from review.

This policy was introduced after the previous examiner report but noticed several transactions without authorisation.
