Since 1st January 2017 Genesis CLF have been officially decentralised from CLF Global (CLF) - which also includes City Faith Ministries Trust (CFMT) and for the purposes of this report any reference to CLF will also include CFMT as they are the same entity), meaning that we are no longer financially and administratively dependant on CFMT's central funds or head office.

Genesis CLF, in addition to all existing CLF churches and ministries became responsible for their own legal, financial and administrative affairs, whilst remaining within the CLF family of churches and ministries. CFMT continue to act as Genesis CLF 's umbrella charity.

Objectives and activities

Trustees Report Charity's Public Benefit

The main aims and Objectives of the charity is:

  1. The advancement of the Christian religion and Christian activities in United Kingdom and the world. Genesis CLF is a family church and registered charity committed to serving the community, inspired by our faith in Jesus Christ and a desire to live and share the good news of our faith with our community. We are a non-denominational Church and a member of the Evangelical Alliance (UK). There is only one way to save the world, and it is through Jesus Christ in John 3:16 the bible says for God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten son that who so ever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting live. We believe that no man can save the world other than through Jesus the bible says no one can come to the farther except through the Son Jesus. Therefore, Genesis CLF is committed and passionate about continuing the work that Jesus began, the recovery of sight to the poor, healing the sick, setting the captives free from bondage, healing the broken-hearted and reaching its community with the good news of Jesus Christ. John 14;12, Luke 14:15-16

Our Mission

Loving God, raising fruitful disciples and advancing the kingdom. The scripture that underpins our mission is: 'Proverbs 8:35 - For those who find me find life and receive favour from the LORD'

Our vision is that we are a church that believes passionately in discipleship making movement. (DMM)

Our core values

Our core values are those ideals we are unwilling to compromise as we fulfil our purpose.

Outreach

In this update, I would like to provide an overview of the progress we have made in reaching out to our community and life groups to share the gospel of Jesus throughout 2024.

As you are aware, our primary focus has been on both collective and individual efforts to disseminate the message of faith and love.

During the summer of 2024, we continued our active outreach initiatives, including street evangelism, leafleting in the Borough of Enfield, and engaging in friends and family evangelism.

Furthermore, we have been distributing complimentary hamper coupons both in the congregation and on public spaces.

Our commitment to discipleship remains steadfast, and we are resolute in nurturing and developing the faith of those within our community and life groups including various ministries within the church.

We firmly believe that by sharing the teachings of Jesus, we can effect a positive transformation and disseminate the message of hope and salvation.

Discipleship

In conjunction with our outreach emphasis and in accordance with New Testament doctrine, we have launched several programs to nurture and equip believers in their faith journey.

These initiatives include small group Bible studies, discipleship classes, mentorship programs, and outreach activities designed to engage and empower our community to grow in their relationship with Christ.

Our focus is on providing a welcoming and nurturing environment where individuals can deepen their understanding of the Word of God, develop their spiritual gifts, and cultivate a heart for serving others.

Through these initiatives, we aim to build a solid foundation of faith and knowledge that will enable believers to live out their calling as followers of Christ.

" Fruitful Life Groups: A gathering of at least two people, designed to teach the Bible and personalise an individual's Christian faith and development with the purpose that the groups multiply over time. Two fruitful life groups functioned in 2024.

" Bible Studies: Dedicated personal study of the scriptures either one to one or in pairs. Two Bible study groups functioned in 2024.

o Hamper Ministry: Providing practical support and care to the homeless, low-income families, single parents family's and under privileged.

o Our Sunday Children's School is called G Kids Club: Genesis CLF believes that every child is unique and created in the image of God, therefore should be loved, valued and treasured.

o In 2024 we recruited more volunteers when G Kids club experienced numerical growth.

o In 2024, we commenced the family hour service, which encompasses monthly services and educational sessions on family-related topics. This initiative aims to encourage families to deliberately

Achievements and performance

The highlights of 2024 are those achievements and activities that we felt underpinned the mission and vision of Genesis CLF during that year. These included:

Numerical Growth

Attendance at our Sunday services during 2024 have been on average approximately 18-50 people made up of approximately 45 adults and 6-15 children.

We have continued to address this through outreach, personal invitations and prayer.

Genesis Sunday Hamper Program

Since launching this community project in 2023, we intended to hand over 250 hampers during the Christmas and new year, however we were managed to reach 450 families who turned up to the Saturday and Sunday services to receive the hampers.

Locally, our focus has been. Biweekly evangelism opposite the church and some parts of Enfield during the Winter and Summer of 2024 and have also used a local food bankdistribution in Enfield to hand over our free food hamper vouchers.

The main challenge appears to be, increase in demand from the general public and lack of manpower due to hostility.

Secondly although we received community grant the demand increased as a result the financial support was still limited and still were unable to provide delivery service.

We still need transportation to be able to deliver more food hampers to those families who are unable to attend and collect their hamper.

We will continue to work on a strategy to help boost the project and work in partnership with Tesco food store, Neighbourly (Marks and Spencer’s & Aldi), Morrisons, local GPs, local schools, to help as voucher distributors and food-bank supporters.

Partnership Organisations and Ministries

In addition to Genesis CLF initiatives and activities, we continued to support and partner with the following organisations in conjunction with our mission:

Financial review

The total incoming resources for the year have decreased by about 9.84% to £25,120 (2023 £27,862). The total resources expended has increased by about 17.53% to £34,791 (2023 £29,602). The deficit is £9,671 (2023 net deficit of £1,740). The trustees are truly grateful to the faithful members and visitors for their continued support of the charity.

Reserve Policy

The trustees recognise the need to maintain reserves. Unrestricted funds are needed to cover the day-to-day administration and support costs of the charity. It is a policy to hold reserves of approximately three months' expenditure in addition to any designated funds. Even though no formal policy is in place, they have always kept reserves at a level that exceeds the current periods running and administration expenses. Reserves funds are always maintained at levels that mitigate unexpected incidents including sudden increase in expenses, unexpected loss of income, uninsured losses or one-time nonrecurring expenses that build long term capacity.

Risk Management

The major risks to which the charity is exposed have been identified as the safeguarding the assets of charity and ensuring funds are applied for charitable purposes. Systems and strategies have been put in place to mitigate these risks. Income and expenditure is monitored through the setting of budgets which are compared with actual figures. Regular finance quarterly reports are given to members in the congregations

Plans for future periods

CFMT’s aim was to continue in its commitment to church development, church planting, ministries, missions and leadership development and its main emphasis for 2021 was “a year of Holy Spirit encounter.

Genesis CLF were encouraged to contextualise this emphasis locally.

Year ended 13 September 2024

3. Accounting policies (continued)

Incoming resources

All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity; it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:

Resources expended

Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:

All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.

Tangible assets

Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

- 15 -

GENESIS CHRISTIAN LIFE FELLOWSHIP

Charitable Incorporated Organisation

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

Year ended 13 September 2024

3. Accounting policies (continued)

Tangible assets (continued)

An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, unless it reverses a charge for impairment that has previously been recognised as expenditure within the statement of financial activities. A decrease in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, except to which it offsets any previous revaluation gain, in which case the loss is shown within other recognised gains and losses on the statement of financial activities.

Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:

Equipment - 25% reducing balance

Impairment of fixed assets

A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.

For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.

For impairment testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the charity are assigned to those units.

Financial instruments

A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount receivable or payable including any related transaction costs.

Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received and not discounted.

Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

GENESIS CHRISTIAN LIFE FELLOWSHIP

Charitable Incorporated Organisation

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

Year ended 13 September 2024

3. Accounting policies (continued)

Financial instruments (continued)

Where investments in shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably, the investment is subsequently measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in income and expenditure. All other such investments are subsequently measured at cost less impairment.

Other financial instruments, including derivatives, are initially recognised at fair value, unless payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate, in which case the asset is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.

Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, with any changes recognised in the statement of financial activities, with the exception of hedging instruments in a designated hedging relationship.

Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised under the appropriate heading in the statement of financial activities in which the initial gain was recognised.

For all equity instruments regardless of significance, and other financial assets that are individually significant, these are assessed individually for impairment. Other financial assets are either assessed individually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics.

Any reversals of impairment are recognised immediately, to the extent that the reversal does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised.
