REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st DECEMBER 2024

Introduction

On behalf of the Trustees, I am pleased to present our annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31[st] December 2024.

Structure, Governance and Management

Kingdom-Life Assembly, Brighton is a member of the Redeemed Christian Church of God – a worldwide mission with parishes in more than 198 countries of the World. RCCG, Kingdom life Assembly as a charity is governed by two documents namely a Deed of Trust and Agreement of Common Purpose which regulates her conduct with the central body.

The trustees set and monitor the fundamental goals of the Charity but delegates authority to the Pastor and the management team to carry out the day-to-day operations.

Objectives and Activities of the Charity

The main objectives of the charity are:

  1. The advancement of the Christian Religion

  2. Elimination of poverty by social and economic inclusiveness.

In furtherance of the above objectives, the activities of the Charity are classified under the following themes:

[a] Christian worship where uplifting and inspired music is offered continually to God.

[b] Provide Bible-based teachings and counselling to members and the public.

[c] Teaching the value of prayer and praying for the neighbourhood, City and nations of the world particularly the United Kingdom.

[d] Play active roles in social action that impacts the Community. For example, offering projects and programmes that promotes social inclusion and complimentary educational facility to children and young adults in the community and city at large.

[e] Forster unity and love among people of different races and nationalities such as networking with other Christian organisations to promote societal cohesion and inter-faith unity.

Developments, Activities and Achievements in the Year

T he Trustees are pleased to report that the charity had made

appreciable progress across all departments of the organisation in the year under review.

However, the loss of our worship building at Fishers gate was a major setback to the steady growth we had experienced over the years. The Ministry had to relocate back to the hotel for worship meetings after several years of opportunities at a permanent building. which had secured approvals as a place of Worship and a Marriage Registry in

England & Wales. Despite this incidence, the Trustees were able to manage successfully the unfortunate situation which is now yielding positive results.

For instance, additional House Fellowship Centres were established from 2022 such as ‘The Brighton House Fellowship’ and ‘The Southwick House Fellowship’ which serves to bring the gospel of Jesus to the doorsteps of the locals. It also helps to meet prayer and other needs of the respective communities.

Strategic prayers for individuals, the church and the nations particularly UK, was also in the front burner of our activities during the year.

There were several joint programmes organised at Easter & Christmas and other festive periods with members of our local community. We are pleased to report that these programmes have further improved the social cohesion between the church and other groups. It is also a thing of joy to report that increasing University students are benefiting from the work of the charity. Mentorship, spiritual, social, moral, educational and cultural enrichments are provided from time to time. The charity also impacted positively the lives of many people from Brighton, Hove, Post lade, Southwick and Fishers gate through her different conferences and seminars held during the year 2023. Our regular events of Worship, Prayer, Bible study continue to provide spiritual nourishment to people from all walks of life. R isk Management

The Trustees are quite satisfied with the management of the finances to fulfil the charity objectives despite the limitations.

Future Developments

The trustees hold the opinion that the management should persevere in search for a more suitable location for worship and operation of the charity.

It is also the resolve of the charity to make better contribution to mission work in the coming year while we continue to pursue our church planting drive with increased zeal.
