Aims and purpose
The strategic objectives of the Jesus Foundation Family International (JFF) are directly linked to its aims. They are:
-
For the advancement of christian faith
-
To reach out in love to the people and our community
-
To provide a place of worship and prayer.
Objective and activities
JFFI is a church where you experience the fullness of God. We provide ministerial services to parishioners in the UK and through our website and social media to the world. The ministerial services provided include wedding ceremonies, children dedication and water baptismal services. We are a Bible-believing, Spirit-led Non-denominational Christian ministry with a passion to share the good news of Jesus Christ. Our Worship services follow a contemporary style in a casual environment where you’ll hear inspirational messages for daily living. In addition, we offer counselling services to people in courtship and to married couples. JFFI is a place where you will discover your purpose and fulfil potential. It is also a place where people are raised from grass to grace and where lives are revitalised, revived and filled with the Word of God.
Achievement and performance
Church Progression during the lockdown From starting a new branch, Harvest Centre in the City of Manchester, to finding unique ways to reach out to our online community, the various ministries have worked so hard to continue to be in touch with members in many new ways. Whether its zoom hangouts, YouTube talks, livestreams and even some youth/ student events being able to be in person! However even through the online challenges, isolation, social distancing, face masks and so much more, God has shown us time and again that He is so much bigger than all of that and He will still meet us in our time of need. The support of TESCO and Fareshare had been critical to the success of the Outreach programme. A new movie initiative was lauched called 'Father Knows Best'. This movie is the result of the Creative expression that the Church enables in the Youth through various youth development
Overall, one church branch was opened in the City Centre, in Greater Manchester. About 3,500 emergency food parcels were delivered during the pandemic to vulnerable families. 50 unemployed adults were supported back into employment and 30 children between the age of 7 – 11 years received Maths/English classes. More than 200 university students reached out and evangelism done.
Structure, governance and management
The Board of Trustees composition remained unchanged and all trustees continue in office The board of trustees continue to set the direction and policy framework for the Church. The board also put in place the process for reviewing, evaluating and implementing appropriate risk management framework.
Financial review
Total income during the year increased to £122,460 (2019: £70,731). This 73% increase in income is due to significant increase in Project donation. The expenses, though increased, but it was at a reducing rate. The total expenses was £85,775.

Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of Jesus Foundation Family International
I report on the accounts for the year 31 December, 2020 which are set out on pages 5 to 9.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The Church's trustees are responsibilities for the preparation of the accounts. The church's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to:
examine the accounts (under section 145 of the CharitiesAct), to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the 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 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 include consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts presents a 'true and fair' view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent Examiner’s statement
In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
which give me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements
-
a. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and
-
b. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 1993 Act; have not been met; or
-
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
