## _**Cardea Community Church Trustee Annual Report April 2020 to March 2021**_ 

Cardea Community Church continues to be an independent church charity which is selfgoverning and financing, aiming to provide a place of worship within the Cardea area of south Stanground, Peterborough. We are grateful to those attending, who, through their generous giving, enable us to meet all of our needs.  According to our mission statement on our website, we exist to make Jesus known in Cardea and beyond. 

A sizeable chunk of the year was, of course, spent with much of the country in lockdown. We were glad to be able to have our Sunday Service and our midweek meeting for prayer on Zoom. Though this was no substitute for meeting in person, it did afford us the opportunity to ‘meet’ and to maintain contact with one another, particularly important for those who spent much of their lives alone. We had a special on-line Carol Service for the community just before Christmas. 

We were grateful that, even over the lockdown period, we had new people joining with us. We are also glad that the children’s work on a Sunday morning has shown signs of steady growth.

Appendix 3
Financial records are recorded in an excel spreadsheet as a cashbook, recordlng every entry in and out individually. This in turn is allocated to each area of
income and expenditure and reconciled.
Gift aid declarations were not viewed this year, it should be noted that these must be retained. It is good practice to ensure that these are kept up to date
with old or deceased donors record5 being stored separately and then destroyed after a period of time.
Electronic records are kept for those payments made in respect of the charities activities.
Again this year the Charity Commission template has been followed, the accounts include details of designated, restricted, unrestricted and endowment
funds, giving the opening balance, movement throughout the year and the closing balance.
AppendSx 4
The church meet5 in premlses rented when required on a weekly basis, there is no ongoing commltment as the premises are rented on a week-to-week basis.
This is around £35 per week, there are re than sufficient cash reserves avallable to meet that liabllity in the general fund.
The church employs one pastor fUll-￿me, consideradon should be given to the commitment glven to hls on80ing employment. The church has a reserves
policy to maintain 3 months expendlture.
