Christian activities, welfare of members,
Preaching the word through television,
bible teaching programs, for
emotional/psychosocial development of
members of the ministry and the local
Communities in which we worship.
In person services have been continued on
Sundays with an option for the community
to join the service via zoom.
We have continued to retain the online
services during the week on Tuesdays and
Thursdays, which has been going well.| |**Statement confirming**
**whether the trustees**
**have had regard to the**
**guidance issued by**
**the Charity**
**Commission on public**
**benefit.**|Para 1.18|We are aware of the guidance on public
benefit and have taken this into account
when making decisions on church
programs.
Special community- oriented programs
such as the night of prayer and reflection
which happens once a month continue to
be well received by families needing a
reflective prayer time from their busy
schedules over the month, have continued
online to provide avenues to engage the
public to provide support as needed.
Many in our community have continued to
engage with our Sunday services which
start later in the
afternoon in London as it affords them time
to rest in the morning after their busy| |||schedules during the week and to still be
part of the evening church service.
We are pleased to report on the growing
young people choir and leadership training| |||which have gone well and has evolved
enabling our young people to be more
engaged.
Our December 2024 Levites Gospel
conference in Birmingham, which featured
songs, gospel messages and seminars on
spiritual empowerment was well received
by the public as a way engaging the
community in the things of God and
supporting people in their spiritual journey.| |---|---|---| |**Achievements and**
**Performance**||| |Summary of the main
achievements of the
charity, identifying the
difference the charity’s
work has made to the
circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any
wider benefits
to society.|Para 1.20|God continues to faithfully guide us with his
course in our hands since our founding
Pastor went to be with the Lord in 2021.
We have had several new visits, with the
online services continuing to prove
popular with our midweek service on
Tuesdays as people from various
countries join.
As a charity, our international service that
celebrates the diversity of our community
and the membership has continued to
attract new visitors: the event was hugely
successful.
Our key focus has been to continue to
provide emotional, spiritual, psychological
and practical support to our members and
the wider public.
Our online services including the once
weekly gospel session on Faith TV, have
been a huge success attracting people from
all works of life from various parts of the
world who report that they feel spiritually,
emotionally, and psychologically
empowered through the ministration of the
word as well as the practical support given
in some cases.
Unfortunately, we had to stop the TV series
due to the financial costs and have moved
into sharing the word on social media for
wider reach. Our services and outreaches
incorporate bible teaching sessions, songs/
worship sessions and corporate prayer
sessions. Participants have continued to be
both socially,
emotionally empowered and spiritually
energized.
Unlike in previous years, the church held a| |||community picnic at the park on 26thof July
2025 which was well attended by the local
community. We continue to create an
opportunity for dialogue, refreshment and
understanding with people from the local
community through our online mid-week
services, our face-to-face Sunday services
as well as the TV program which aired until
27thSeptember 2025. We continue to be
financially, spiritually supportive of members
in need, including where there has been
bereavement or unemployment.| |---|---|---| |**Achievements**

Our Annual conference (Levites
conference) was held in Birmingham from
13thto 15thof December 2024. This
continues to be a time of refreshing in the
presence of God. A time to recalibrate as a
ministry.
We have instituted a youth fellowship /
youth prayer meeting/ youth training which
runs every first Saturday each month. The
aim is to grow the faith in the younger
generation and engage
them in being responsible members of
society as they grow.
We also now run a special program for
women during mother’s Sunday and one for
men during Father’s Day. This year, the
special women’s program was held at
Romford Apogee studios on 30thMarch
2025 and the men’s special program was
held in Birmingham in June. We also held
an all-church Easter retreat in Birmingham
19thto 20thApril 2025 which was well
attended.| |**Financial Review**||| |**Review of the**

period was £13978, of which £1020 was
