Legal Status

River of Life Christian Centre (Hereafter referred to as RoLCC) is a charitable company limited by guarantee, governed by memorandum and articles of association, which completed its transition to a charitable company back in 2010 as agreed by its membership.

The attached financial statements present the financial transactions of the charitable company for 12 months to 31 December 2021, with the comparative figures being for the 12 months ended 31 December 2020.

RoLCC, a Church and registered charity continues to operate under its own constitution established and agreed by the charities commission on 29[th] September 1983 and amended 27th July 1987.

RoLCC is a local independent Church led by pastors Stephen and Lesley Chaudhary. By independent it is meant that the Church is not tied to a denomination; although is networked with other like-minded Churches, charities and organisations.

Management and pay policy

There are 3 trustees who meet periodically where they discuss current issues and future plans concerning the charity. They review best practice according to the most to date information provided. The 3 trustees are the key management personnel. Two Trustees are not remunerated and give their time freely. Pay of Stephen and Lesley Chaudhary, the pastors is set out in note 12 to the financial statements. Pay is reviewed annually taking into account cost of living and other pertinent factors.

Appointment and training of trustees

New trustees are appointed in accordance with the Articles of Association, who can bring the requisite spiritual qualities to the leadership of the church. New trustees are provided with the Articles of Assocaition and other material published by the Charity Commission setting outthe responsibilities of being a Trustee. There is no maximum number of Trustees. Trustees are not required to retire by rotation.

CHARITIES ACT 2011

The trustees have complied with the duty in section 17(5) of the Charities Act 2011 to have regard to the public benefit guidance published by the charity commissioners and in particular the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. The Trustees can demonstrate that its activities benefit the public in the following ways:

OBJECTIVES

The trust deeds define the objectives of the Church, but are summarized as follows:

The mission statement of the Church is to be a strong lively Church. To be a Church where the gifts, talents and abilities of each person can be discovered and fulfilled.

To be a Church able and willing to reach out and meet the needs of the community, with the intention of bringing them to a commitment to Jesus Christ and then leading them on into a productive Christian life.

We accomplish these objectives through the encouragement and the involvement of individuals using and developing their own abilities in ways that meet the objectives.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021

SUMMARY OF ACTIVITIES, DEVELOPMENTS & ACHIEVEMENTS

RoLCC meets for worship on Sunday morning with separate active children’s programs for part of the morning and a parent supervised creche.

Pastor Stephen leads the Church service and also preaches sermons from the Bible. Part of the service involved the praise and worship team who lead the congregation to fulfil their responsibilities.

The 12 months to 31 December 2021 continued to be a challenge for the Church as a result of the Covid pandemic. Whilst a period of lockdown was in place from early January to Mid-April 2021, Church services continued with social distancing rules, masks etc in place as per Government regulations.

Pastor Stephen continued to encourage the Church in all aspects of the Christian lifestyle and the congregation were encouraged on the use of social media to send out prayer requests for which the Church gathered ‘virtually’ on Thursdays at 7pm to pray for the Church, our nation, and the challenges of the pandemic.

Lockdown had also impacted RoLCC’s other ministries namely the Homeless Breakfast Run, ‘Over a Cuppa’, Street Prayer and Steve’s pastoral work, visits etc. These continue to be ‘on hold’ until the foreseeable future.

It is encouraging that there are a number of people requesting to be baptised and this is something RoLCC will look to schedule once issues with the Baptismal pumping system are addressed (See ‘Strategic Aims’)

Strategic Aims

As of September 2021, The Church has now started to return to ‘normal operations’ albeit it with social distancing measures instigated. This has resulted in a reduction in membership – But is based on a ‘first come first served’ basis in line with Government guidelines.

The current pastor and his wife – Stephen & Lesley stepped down in early October 2021 and a new Pastor and his wife – Iain & Jennifer has replaced them. Their focus will be to build the Church post-Covid, and refocus the Future of RoLCC in all areas of Ministry.

Primary areas of focus as follows:

Restructure of Church Teams – This includes the instigation of new Hospitality teams and a rota system in place. Other areas of serving will be looked at as we progress.

Praise & Worship – A new presentation system now helps to facilitate the worship time and ~~w~~ orks very well, including the playing of video messages, and background music. There are improvements to be made in future (i.e. Displays) but this will be looked into at a future date.

Kids Church – A Sunday School has now recommenced and is proving popular with the children. This is an area where more leaders are required to support the current rota of two.

Church activities during the week – RoLCC still needs to look at these activities and where necessary look to instigate, areas like Home-Groups, ‘Over A Cuppa’ etc

Church Maintenance:

We have commissioned a Quinquennial Survey by a specialist architect which will provide the foundation for a thorough review of our church building. This will cover all aspects of the premises and provide a prioritised and roughly costed plan so that we can begin to address some issues with the roof, windows and general compliance with building maintenance protocols. The survey will be analysed in due course.

The baptismal pool also has some significant repairs that need to be carried out and quotes are being sought to rectify these problems urgently.

Gifts

RoLCC regularly gives gifts and food hampers to people throughout the year, not just during Christmas time. In particular we have focused on helping the homeless and those who have trouble living independently as well as providing similar hampers tailored towards helping clients of a local charity that help victims of modern-day slavery. We have been able to help children’s work projects overseas.

Food Bank RoLCC supports this initiative and Church members regularly donate large amounts of food to this cause, as well as supplying volunteers to provide hands on support at a local Foodbank.

Child Protection Policy RoLCC has had a comprehensive Child protection policy in place since 2000, and training is ongoing for individuals who work with children. The Child Protection Policy is registered with thirtyone:eight and in compliance with their recommendations, sent to Bristol City Council Social Services.

Health & Safety The Church has an appointed Health & Safety officer. Any area of concern is brought to their attention, and dealt with at the first opportunity. Health & Safety is regularly stressed as everyone’s responsibility. RoLCC also has several first aiders. No H&S issues have been reported.

Workplace Pensions RoLCC is enrolled in a "Workplace Pension Scheme".

FINANCES

No policy has been discussed by the trustees for holding or making investments. The charity’s assets are currently invested entirely with banks, and no change to this policy is currently envisaged.

The objectives of RoLCC are supported by the freewill giving of tithes and offerings by its members and congregants. Pastors Stephen and Lesley receive salaries, and charitable gifts are made by the Church to support missions whether overseas or within our own locale, including those in need of financial support.

Any funds not used month by month are transferred to a high interest short term account. Other day to day funds are held with HSBC.

Unrestricted income for the year exceeded expenditure by £2,750, (2020 £1,434 net expenditure). Restricted expenditure for the year equalled income, (2020 £1,648 net expenditure). Accumulated unrestricted funds at 31 December 2021 amounted to £239,945 (2020 - £237,195. Free reserves were £92,907 (2020 - £89,438).

Independent examiner's report to the Trustees on the unaudited financial statements

I report on my examination of the financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2021 set out on pages 7 to 14.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity’s trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’).

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’).

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
