Trustees Report (continued) for the Year Ended 31[st] March 2021

In planning our activities for the year, Christ Resurrection Ministries has considered the Commissioner guidance on public benefit and in particular the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. For wider public benefit purposes, the charity in the course of the year has actively engaged in both congregational and community wide activities that are geared towards promoting the social inclusion and empowering people to live a sustainable Christian life. Amongst them are;

In carrying out our activities both within and outside our worship centre, we always ensure that we do not compromise the core principals of our statement of faith as set out in our governing constitution.

Review of Activities and Performances

We have continually struggled with face to face membership growth over the years. However, the lack of membership growth has not hampered our dedication to affect the community we serve. Despite the lack of increase to our face to face regular members, we have continued to provide people in the community at large the opportunity to become members of our church to serve in a ministry dedicated to life changing teachings and support, worship, prayers and global evangelism and community missionary work. The achievements and performances are further elaborated below;

Worship and Prayer

We hold regular prayer and bible studies respectively on Wednesdays and Fridays. The combinations of these meetings has helped members to grow tremendously in their faith and in turn has helped improved their commitment to provide a Godly service to the wider community at large.
