ActivÉties attd Aehievem¢nts During the Year
ChristiaR Worship Seryiees
Throughout the year. every Sundayj Life Church London conducted worship services face to face at
Cumberland School in Plaistow. e&8t London. Thi5 ha5 b¢cn of great encouragement and support to
the members of our Congregatio￿ from faith. community and teaching hspects of ministy. During our
service4 we ais() provided snacks and rcfrcshmcntS to the congregation, e5pecAally to assist membe
with children and familtes. W¢ hav¢ s¢¢n a small and ￿adUal increa5¢ in the average attendance of our
services.
House Groups
A part of our support 5twcturc withiA the church, House Groups provided the needed sens¢ of
belonging and LOmTnunity to TneTDbers of the cburch. Although many of these continued to be via
onlin¢ meetings. they have benefited the congregation. Face to face gat1￿1ngS have iner¢8sed in
number it hès b¢¢n a good balance to provide the congregation with much needed social and spiritual
support. All wups met once a w¢ek.
Youth Ministry
At Life Church London wc ensurcd that support for the young people ivould always continue a￿1
available. Our youth ministy ronductrd onlin¢ iveekly meetings. to listen and to speak to our young
people and supwrt them the best way we could. We Created a sale and eomfortable spacc for ihcm,

outdoor activities, including bowli￿ outings and oth¢r5.
Prayer Group

AehieYem¢nt$ And P¢rfortuan¢e
TeehnÈ¢al challenges of logistics and weekly pop-up and t¢ar-down s¢lup of church services have been
r¢dur¢d tI￿Ough arrangernent of on-site storage within Cumberland School, at the same location as our
weekly Sunday services. The teams longcr ncedcd to us¢ an off-sit¢ storage facility. which
onsumed much needed funds, volunte¢r tim¢ and ¢fforts. This change had allowed the ministy to
focus m(Ke on its cote fi]nCtio￿$ and goals.
As mentioned earlier. Life Church London continued to support thc mission work ID the Philippines
through our network of Life Church Philippin¢s th￿r¢h￿. Onc of these is the 'Veg4Kids' foLNJ
growing PTogranune, that we a150 SUPPOrted in the previous year. 'lThis programme provided a variety
of organieally grown f(*ods for local children in Palawan. Philippines and it especially focused on
support for children in poor ar¢&s to Provid¢ them wilh heahhy nutritioll. DonatiotLS financed the costs
associated wilh famiing> including seed, equipment, and support of volunleers.
This year we hav¢ also provided support to our Mindanao regional Life Church outreach to help with
operational cosls while working with disadvantaged families.
This y¢ar as in the previous year we organised food packs that we distributed to residents in our local
neighbourb￿d near Curnberland SelK>oI in ¢ast London. Th¢ objertive was to help any residents
rcgardle55 of their rtnancial situation. and to establish connections so that ive can provide support and
ommunity if ihey choose to reach out to us. This was followcd by a Christmas celebration where we
opcncd the doors to anyone wishing to join.
Lasily* at Life Church London we bave been working hard to build and cquip our volunteers to
prepare them for future prosramuw and mi5510￿5.
