Cosheston Mission 2025
The work at Cosheston Mission has remained fully active throughout the year.
God in his mercy has left us with enough for another year. The reality is, our God has, and shall, supply all our needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19).
Here are some financial facts to think about:
-
missionary support came to £2,400,20, which amounted to 12% of the church’s expenditure
-
£327 was given to Just Care from donations and community giving during our Christmas meeting at the village hall
-
our expenditure on the Village Hall amounted to £46
-
our Public Liability and Building Insurance broker charged £735.77 this year (£11.27 more than 2024)
-
we spent £150 on our annual fee for our DBS Certificates through ‘Thirtyone:eight’
-
our annual Stewardship offering amounted to £18,585.15 slightly up from last year (£18,566.51), a difference of +£18.64
-
we had a one-off donation of £6,500 in 2025
Our monies must fall behind our aims as a registered charity:
-
a) to advance the Christian Faith in accordance with the Statement of Faith in such ways and in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the Trustees from time to time may think fit;
-
b) relieve sickness and financial hardship and preserve good health by the provision of funds, goods or services of any kind, including through the provision of counselling and support in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the Trustees from time to time may think fit and
-
c) advance education in such ways and in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the Trustees from time to time may think fit

At the moment the church only has one paid worker, the Pastor, Mr N Gilbert. Rev. N Gilbert is also a Trustee. By the grace of God, the church has carried on. God is good. 2 Timothy 2:9 reminds us that the word of God is not chained. Over the year we have maintained the preaching of the word and certain aspects of outreach, such as the Ladies Meetings. Throughout the year we have also focused on understanding who God wants to lead the church forward.
Here is a full break down of our finances for 2025

The Audit for our accounts has taken place and has been signed off.
At the end of the day,
… seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
