STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Background

House of Revival Ministries is a non-Profitable organisation /registered charity (CRN 1141079) and a member of the Voluntary action attended by approximately three hundred members including children. Day to day management of the church is vested in the leadership/ departmental team led by the senior pastor. We believe in inclusiveness and welcome all people who want to participate in our activities. The church is located in Coventry, West Midlands. House of Revival is a multicultural thriving church that operates throughout the week. The church has been in existence for over a decade. Leadership The leadership team is responsible for the administration and management of the local church, general purposes, finances, and personnel. Capital projects and expenditure require the approval of the leadership team. This team meets regularly to discuss and plan objectives and implementation thereof. All matters are subject to prayer and God’s direction. Appointments of officers are governed by the constitution of the church. Trustee induction and training New trustees undergo orientation where they are briefed on their legal obligations under Charity Law, the content of the constitution and the processes on decision making within the organisation. The Charity encourages trustees to attend, at their discretion; appropriate external training events were these will be of use for the undertaking of the role.

Risk management

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. The board of trustees actively review the major risks facing the charity on a regular basis and ensure measures are put in place to safeguard the charity's fund and assets. The trustees also ensure that legal advice is sought, when necessary, on crucial issues concerning the ministry.

Objectives and Activities

We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities. The vision of the church is "Saving souls and making them better through Christ." To help achieve this, the following objectives have been set:

To expand and develop the ministry of House of Revival through Sunday and mid-week worship services, children's ministries, youth ministries, prayer and ministry training, bible studies and small groups meetings. To minister to the congregation and the local community through family life, relationship, and other ministry programmes. To establish social programmes to provide food, clothes, and shelter for the needy and care for the sick. To educate and equip the congregation and other churches in the practice of ministry through House of Revival based conferences.

Achievements and Performance

-The church's activities are available to Christians and non-Christians, members, and nonmembers alike; there is no restriction to attendance. The community have been attracted to and enjoyed our weekly services, conferences, and programmes.

-The church is making strenuous effort to acquire its own premises to support the growth and development of the Ministry. The bid for a few properties during the year but unfortunately, we were unable to meet the asking price.

-We also aid the local community by providing career counselling, pre-and post-marital counselling, bereavement counselling, hospital visits, prison visits, welfare provision, prayer support, men and women's meetings and supporting local charities.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Laws applicable to Charities in England and Wales requires trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure for that period.

In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

-select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently.

-observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP.

-make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent.

-state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements.

-prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with Charities Acts 2011. The trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Signed by order of the trustees.

HOUSE OF REVIVAL

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF HOUSE OF REVIVAL YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2024 which are set out on pages 7 to 13.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and Examiner

The trustees (who are also the directors of House of Revival for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:

examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act.
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

BASIS OF INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:

1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities 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
