london school of supernatural ministry Trustees Report Period Ended 30 June 2022
Structure Governance & Management
Governing Document
The School is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association
Vision
The London School of Supernatural Ministry (LSSM) is a Holy Spirit driven ministry school where students of all ages come to learn how to live in the Kingdom of God and extend its borders through a supernatural lifestyle. Our vision is multi-generational with participants welcomed from all ages over 18. One of our core values is honour, which will manifest through joining the generations and teaching every age group to value and serve one another.
The school emphasises hands on training and experience along with academic understanding. This creates a “learn and apply” culture where students will be encouraged to take risks, stretch their faith and grow on their understanding of God. LSSM believes that each verse of the Bible is an invitation into an experience with the Lord, therefore you will be challenged to live the Bible. We have a learning environment that will feel very much like a laboratory, where you will practice the things you are being taught while instructors coach the process. You will find this all takes place in a setting of passionate worship and intimacy with Him.
As the year progresses and students begin to gain confidence and experience within the safety of the classroom, you will be sent on daily outreaches into the community. These outreaches will include ministry on the streets of London, visiting hospitals, businesses, Parliament, Embassies etc. to demonstrate God’s love and power. When you take your supernatural training into the community, we will see Jesus impact people’s lives for good!
Management
The school uses teaching materials developed by Bethel Church, Reading, California.
Andrew Chapman as CEO and Head of school returned from Sabbatical leave in late May 2019 and the school ceased its tenancy at 102-105 Whitechapel High St. as no co-tenants, expected to be introduced by Maker Life (a charity enabling students to live in central London), were forthcoming and the uptake of desk spaces by individuals working in London was much lower than expected. This relieved the financial pressure significantly. The school relocated to premises in St Peter’s Church, Brockley for the autumn term with a new intake of 4 students
5
and some 6 continuing students attending both day and evening courses.
The intent was to develop an online presence to deliver modular short courses and some of the school teaching was delivered online. Additional course material was prepared in parallel. The onset of the Coronavirus pandemic in early 2020 resulted in all teaching reverting to online with new manuals being posted out to course members. Numbers were 32 at these classes. Support to students was also provided
by volunteer staff. This continued for the remainder of the period. The development of further online offerings for training and practical work remains an intention. Some progress has been made during the lockdown conditions. A prophetic group of 100 members has now converted to paid monthly membership of 30 people.
External Relationships
The School relates to a number of Churches who may send candidates for the full time or evening school and support in a variety of ways.
Trustees
A number of changes to Trustees had occurred during the previous year: New Trustees have been appointed over the summer period 2019, these are Katrina Prentice and Christopher Gaul.

Objectives and Activities Charitable Objectives

About the London School of Supernatural Ministry (LSSM)
Started in September 2012. LSSM is a ministry school where students of all ages come to learn how to live in the Kingdom of God and extend its borders through a supernatural lifestyle of love and power.
Main activities during the year
Running short and long-term training courses which encourage and help people in churches, on the street, in businesses and in local communities.
Achievements
Evening School is flourishing with numbers being maintained. Building of relationships with churches has continued and increased contacts with parliamentarians has been established.
Financing
As a charity the School is able to accept donations which may be GiftAided. The participants in the Full-Time School pay an annual fee as a lump sum or by monthly instalments. In some instances, part payment may be in-kind activity by a student thereby saving costs that would otherwise be incurred by hiring appropriate help. The Evening School participants pay per session or for a year ahead and participants in other courses pay per session or per course. As described above, loans were negotiated to maintain solvency of the School. The outstanding £8,000 loan has been converted to a gift within the period. The £30,000 loan remains.
