## **True Jesus Church Cambridge (TJCC)** 

## **Aim and purposes** 

The TJCC has the responsibility of co-operating with the UKGA and UKGA assigned preachers, Preacher Michael Chan, Steven Shek and Raymond Leacock in promoting the whole mission of the church. 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

The Objectives of the charity are to advance the Christian faith for the benefit of the public in accordance with the statement of faith. 

When planning our activities for the year, the TJCC have considered the Commission’s guidance on public interest and, in particular, the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. In particular, we try to enable ordinary people to live out their faith as part of our church community through: 

- Worship and prayer; learning about the Gospel, and developing their knowledge and trust in Jesus. 

- Provision of pastoral care 

- Missionary and outreach work 

## **Achievements and Performance** 

## _Worship and Prayer_ 

Before the Covid pandemic all were welcome to attend our regular services on Saturday from 11:30 to 15:30 at Park Street, Dry Drayton, Cambridge CB23 8DA. In addition, there was a prayer session at 11:30 on the first Saturday of each month, and on which day, there was an additional service at 14:30-15:30 after the main Sabbath service at 12:30-13:30. However, no service was held between March 2020 and July 2020. Restricted service resumed in Aug 2020 until the end of September 2020. There was no UKGA preacher visit in 2020 due to the Covid pandemic. 

## _Pastoral Care_ 

Our volunteers routinely organised family visits to members that were not able to attend church service.  In addition, our church organised additional visits on the Sundays when the UKGA preacher visited.  We maintained regular Religious Education classes on Saturdays. During the Covid pandemic services were held online on Sabbath and weekly bible study and monthly fellowship were held online on Sunday.  Religious Education classes were held online either on Saturday or Sunday. 

## _Mission and Evangelism_ 

No Evangelical event was held in 2020 due to the Covid pandemic. 

## **Financial Review** 

Total receipts on unrestricted fund were £3068 of which £163 was interest. Restricted donations received were £42991 and are detailed in the Financial Statements. Income from Gift Aid was £7932. £8388 was spent in the financial year including £2000 loan repayment to the UKGA. 



The net result of the year was a surplus of receipts over payments of £37671.  Adding bank and deposit balances brought forward at the beginning of the year, the balance carried forward at 1[st] October 2020 on unrestricted funds and restricted funds totalled £28460. 

We thank the church volunteers to provide their homes for our routine and ad hoc services.  We are grateful for the generosity of individual members and UK churches for their offerings and loans. In additions weekly food and drink and transport costs were met by volunteers to such an extent the expenditure of the church was kept to a minimal.
