## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**
The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the charitable company for the year 1 April 2020 to 31 March 2021. The Trustees confirm that the Annual Report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019).
## **Structure, governance and management**
## **The Trustees are:**
1. Mrs Virginia Estrada
2. Mrs Juanita Sanchez Lawton
3. Mr Ray Cabral
4. Mrs Merra Tabay
The Trustees play a primary role in ensuring good governance and functioning of the foundation. The Board’s role, functions and responsibilities are quite clearly defined.
The Charity currently has a strong team of Advisory board members in the UK who have helped to secure financial support and contribute to the future planning of the organisation.
## **Governing document:**
Trust deed dated 1 May 2010 Registered as Charity on 18 August 2011.
## **Methods of Appointment of Trustees**
The members of the General Trustees Board are trustees for the purpose of charity law. New trustees may be appointed by resolution of a meeting of the trustees.
## **Organisational structure and decision-making policies**
The Charity is governed by its trustees that meet regularly with the pastoral team to manage its affairs. The charity had two part time employees during the year ended 31 March 2021, who were engaged in charitable activities, finance and day to day administration. Day to day management is delegated to the church leadership team. The trustees make the major decisions regarding the funds of the charity. This would include the purchase or sale of major property assets and decisions with major funding implications.
## **Risk Management**
The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charitable company is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the charitable company, and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks, including insurance arrangements. The trustees do not envisage any significant external risks to funding which will not be met by church member donations. Internal control risks are being minimised by the implementation of procedures for authorisation of all transactions and projects. Procedures are being put in place to ensure the compliance with health and safety of staff, church members, volunteers, and visitors.
The principal risk of the charity has been its dependence on voluntary income. Trustees have initiated various processes to mitigate such risk, so that the charity has sufficient reserve in the event of adverse condition(s).

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**
## **Public Benefit:**
The Trustees have complied with the duty in Section 4 of the Charities Act 2006 and have paid due regard to public benefit when preparing this report. The benefit provided to the public is consistent with the aims of the charity in UK.
## **Objectives**
Jesus the Voice of Hope Global Ministries is an independent, non-denominational Christian Church that presents and teaches the gospel of Jesus Christ. Its objects are;
- To promote and advance the Christian faith throughout the world, generally including by the worship of God, the instruction and edification of Christians, the care and Christian instruction of young people and children and the evangelisation of non Christians.
- To relieve poverty, hardship, sickness and distress among peoples of the local community, the UK and the world
-
-
- To promote education and training.
- To support such other charities and charitable purposes as the trustees shall decide.
The main activity of the charity is the promotion and advancement of the Christian faith; it does this through the activity of the church whose objectives include evangelism; pastoral care and community building; and worship and instruction in the Christian faith.
In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission (CC) relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.
## **Ministry Team**
The following served the ministry team during the year covered by these accounts;
|**Pastoral Care:**|Ptr Susana Bulaon (Senior Pastor); Ptr Merra Tabay (Associate Pastor)|
|---|---|
|**Administration:**|Caitlin Bulaon|
|**Worship Minister:**|Alexia Tumbaga|
|**Youth Ministry:**|Jeanine Bulaon|
|**Finance:**|Merra Tabay; Virginia Estrada|

## **Strategies for Achieving Objectives**
The current focus is to advance the gospel of Jesus Christ within the youth and young adults by training and equipping them with the word of God. Strategies include holding events and engaging in a number of different projects which allow for new relationships with the public to be formed and the expansion of our social and outreach work.
Eventually the charity is looking to develop smaller groups within the church’s community that will provide pastoral care, teachings and outreach opportunities.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**
## **Activities During the Year**
## Worship Service:
Jesus the Voice of Hope’s main activity is the Sunday Worship service, where they meet weekly at The Boathouse Studios, 80 Abbey Rd, Barking IG11 7BT to worship, fellowship and be encouraged by the word of God.
## Daily Prayer:
The charity holds Zoom prayer meetings at 9:30am from Monday to Friday so people from around the world (namely Philippines, North Korea and America) can join to be prayed for and so they can pray corporately for the church and the needs of others.
## Overseas Mission:
Due to the pandemic, we have not been able to have any overseas missions. However, Jesus the Voice of Hope continues to support the work of Emmanuel Children's Orphanage in India by regularly donating. We often donate to causes around the world, such as donating towards the typhoon in the Philippines and supporting families that had lost their homes.
## Small Groups:
The charity had two cell groups that would meet weekly to study the word of God and to get midweek encouragement and training.
## Youth Ministry:
The young people of Jesus the Voice of Hope are aged between 13 and 21 years old. They meet every Sunday after the worship service with the main objective of learning Christian values that will help them achieve their goals in life and encourage a positive lifestyle. The objectives include;
- To reach out to the youth in their specific area of influence (schools, workplaces)
- To encourage them to develop gifts and talents
- To grow as confident, matured Christians and leaders
- Jesus the Voice of Hope has also partnered with Fountain of Life Ministries to provide training for the young people to equip them to become leaders in the ministry and in their own fields.
## Worship Team:
Other than leading the worship on Sundays, the worship team meets monthly to rehearse. The team also encourages young people to develop skills on their chosen instrument and teaches them how to work in a band.
## **Volunteers**
Like most churches, the charity is grateful for the unstinting efforts of its members who work towards achieving its objects as volunteers.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**
## **Financial review:**
## **a. Principle Funding**
The charity is mainly funded by donations from members of the church congregation, topped up by Gift Aid tax relief reclaimed from HM Revenue and Customs.
## **b. Reserves Policy**
As at 31st March 2021, there were free unrestricted reserves of £38,104 and this will be used to support the charity's future activities.
## **Plans for Future Periods**
Now that we are out of lockdown, we hope to establish more social outreach programs for the local community and overseas missions.
The charity looks to train the young people to be able to lead smaller communities within the church to offer pastoral care and to be able to teach the word of God. We look to regain the momentum gained before the pandemic when teaching and training the young people.
Jesus the Voice of Hope wants to help their local community further by owning their own property to use, not only for out Sunday Services, but for events, workshops, outreaches and other activities that would help further the objectives of the charity.
## **Statement of Board of Trustees’ responsibilities**
The Board of Trustees are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
Charity law applicable to charities in England/Wales requires the Board of Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which gives a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of the surplus or deficit of the Charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements the Board of Trustees have:
- Selected suitable accounting policies and applied them consistently,
- Made judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent,
- Stated whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
- Prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis (unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in operation).
The Board of Trustees has overall responsibility for ensuring that the Charity has an appropriate system of controls, financial and otherwise. They are also responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 1993. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the detection and prevention of fraud and other irregularities.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**
## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF JESUS THE VOICE OF HOPE GLOBAL MINISTRIES**
I report on the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities and Balance Sheet with associate notes.
This report is made solely to the charity's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 and regulations made under section 154 of that Act. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent examiner's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's Trustees as a body, for my examination work.
## **RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER**
The charity's Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements, and they consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
- Examine the accounts (under Section 145 of the Charities Act).
- To follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners (under Section 145(5)(b) of the Charities 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 Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Group/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.
## **Basis of Independent Examiner's report**
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 130 of the Act; and
- to prepare financial statements which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Act have not been met; or
- 2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

**Jesus The Voice of Hope Global Ministries Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021**
## **1 Accounting policies**
## _**1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements**_
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value, and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008). The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities' published in March 2005 and applicable accounting standards.
## _**1.2 Fund accounting**_
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
## _**1.3 Incoming resources**_
All incoming resources are included in the Statement of financial activities when the charity has entitlement to the funds, certainty of receipt and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Donated services or facilities, which comprise donated services, are included in income at a valuation which is an estimate of the financial cost borne by the donor where such a cost is quantifiable and measurable. No income is recognised where there is no financial cost borne by a third party.
Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
## _**1.4 Resources expended**_
Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been included under expense categories that aggregate all costs for allocation to activities. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular activities, they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of the resources.

Support costs are those costs incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity and include project management carried out at Headquarters. Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.
Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is made except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled.
