Trustee Annual Report Aims and objectives. The aim of the church is to advance the Christian faith through the following: To evangelise in accordance with the mandate of Jesus Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit. The relief of poverty. To further such other charitable purposes for the public benefit as the trustees may determine from time to time Feeding and providin8 food for the homeless Campaign on the dangers of obesity and measures to avoid it through seminars, healthy food options and cookery lessons for mothers. Setting up care homes for abandoned children and children that will be referred from Social services for Christian upbringings. The board of Trustees confirm that all our activities have been considered in the light of the guidance provided in the booklet "Charities and Public Benefit" Meeting Objectives & Provision of Public Benefit Spreading the good news of Jesus Christ is central to all our activities, and we are committed to fostering a culture of evangelism across all our departments and programs. Throughout the year, ou r dedicated volunteers worked tirelessly to distribute tracts, share the gospel, and invite individuals to join us at church. Additionally, we hosted a variety of regular, faith- centred programs. both in person and online via Zoom, to help people grow and strengthen their faith. These include: Sunday services Sunday School House Fellowship Bible study Women's Fellowship Children & Youth Church Holy Communion service Daily Prayer Meetin8S Departmental Retreat and Seminar Jesus in the park/Summer BBQ Food Bank Dominion Assembly gave out about 84 Christmas food boxes to our local community through Primary and Secondary schools, and over 20 such boxes to struggling parishioners. We have assisted numerous student5. widows and families by providing household equipment e.g. furniture etc to help them settle into their new lives in the Unlted Kingdom. Many of them are now joyfully worshiping Wlth us. Preaching the Gospel Our faith in Jesus Christ COTnpels us to share the gospel, hoping to transform lives. We maintained active social media channels and expanded our outreach efforts.
Our daily prayer meetings forthe community continued online, focusing on opening people's eyes to the truth of Chrisvs salvation, fostering peaceful coexistence with neighbours, and addressing issues like drug abuse and the drug trade. The charity has also maintained strong partnerships with other local churches and organizations to further the work of God in Liverpool. We are encouraged by the efforts of World Evangelical Missions. managed by the RCCG Central Office, and continue to support and co113borate with them. Additionally, we work alon85ide Compassion UK, Together forthe Harvest, and Africa Missions Wales, offering both prayer and financial support. Church Growth Church membership has grown steadily, especially among the African community. More families have joined us. The congregation is thriving in both numbers and spiritual depth. We propose initiating a Youth and Young Adult church IYAYAI which should commence at the earliest opportunity, we have also Identified a hall close to the church to rent for the proposed YAYA church. Church Bui Idi ng Renovations We are still experiencing some slight leaks, because of the nature and age of the building the maintenance work is done as when required. We have shifted our attention to working on the external walls. We have completely blasted off the renderin8 and exposed the bare bricks and we have done a K render. which guarantees over 15 years, service. The bricks have been pointed. and anti-graffiti paints applied to stop further graff itl on our walls. We have bou8ht another 100 new chairs for the worship place, and we estimate a total of 400 chairs for the entire church. Risk Management The trustees have examined the major strategic, business, and operational risks faced by the church and confsrm that the systems have been established to enable regular reports to be produced so that the necessary steps can be taken to lessen these risks. We actively review the major risks which the church faces on a regular basis. Volunteers We are blessed to have 60 dedicated volunteers actively contributin8 to the advancement of God's work. We are deeply grateful for their ongoing support through prayer, financial contributions, and their faithful presence. Comments on the Accounts The statement of financial activities shows income of £155,856.00 and expenditure of £142,825.00, resulting in a surplus of £13.031.00. The church has maintained sufficient cash flow to support its day-to-day operational activities.
Conclusion Despite challenges such as inflation, high energy prices, and the rising cost of living, God has been faithful to us, the church has made considerable progres5 over the past year. By God's grace, we will continue to build on this momentum in the coming year. We give all the glory to Almighty God forthe growth and advancement of His church this year. and we look forward to even more blessed years ahead.
