Objectives of the Charity, Principal Activities and Organisation of Our Work
The objectives of Crossfare Christian Centre are: a)The furtherance of Christianity and the Christian education.

The principal activities of the church are Christian worship, Christian outreach program to increase Christian awareness and to spread the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ and the development of the whole man, spiritually, mentally and physically.
We have a number of volunteers who assist in helping us achieve our objectives.
Developments, Activities and Achievements in the Year.
The process of development, planning and implementation have continued in the last year, during which the church have been successful spiritually in ministering to the needs of different kinds of people and training the church members to deal with various community members who have been coming to the church requiring different kinds of assistance.
Our outreach works in the year have yielded much fruit. We have extended our counselling and caring works beyond the four walls of the church premises by offering counselling and prayer support to prison inmates, and the sick at the hospitals.
We have also been successful in helping people develop biblical principles that build up their self-esteem enabling them to fulfil their purpose and live a happy and productive life.

The church looks forward to the year 2021 with renewed optimism with plans to expand capacity in most of its activities and to increase access for existing and potential users of its services.

TRUSTEES’ REPORT (CONT)
Trustees’ Responsibilities in Relation to the Financial Statements
The Charities Act requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give 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 these financial statements, the trustees are requested to:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
State whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.

Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of Crossfare Christian Centre.
We report on the financial statements of the Trust for the year ended 31 October 2020, which are set out on pages 4 to 7.
In accordance with instructions received, I have prepared without carrying out an audit the financial statements for the year ended 31 October 2020. These financial statements were prepared from accounting records of the church, information and explanations supplied to me by the Church Council.
Our review was limited primarily to inquiries of the trustees and other volunteers and analytical procedures applied to the financial data.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the 1993 Act)) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the financial statements (under section 43(3)(a) of the 1993 Act);
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners (under
-
section 43(7)(b) of the 1993 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 charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, 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 I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the financial statements.
Independent examiner’s statement
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 41 of the 1993 Act; and
-
to prepare financial statements which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 1993 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 accounts to be reached.
