Aims and Purpose

The Glory of the Cross Ministry has the responsibility of promoting the whole mission of the church, pastoral, evangelical, social and ecumenical.

Objectives and Activities

The GCM is committed to the advancement of the Christian religion in accordance with the statement of belief, to relieve persons in conditions of need, hardships or distress, or who are aged or sick particularly in the said county and at the discretion of the trustees, elsewhere in the United K or the World. In our activities throughout the year, the GCM have considered the Commission’s guidance on public benefit, particularly in relation to charities for the advancement of religion.

We try to help people develop their knowledge and belief in Christ through bible study and deployment of Christian literature, resources, and academic learning. We provide theological history through to modern day perspectives of faith, prayer and worship. We also teach comparative and major world religions such as Islam, Judaism, Christianity, and Evolution theories.

Achievements and Performance

GCM continues to offer a range of online services during the week and over the course of the year. For example, midday daily prayers also early evening and midnight prayers. This provides an environment for sound sleep whilst the opportunity for deeper fellowship through interactive learning is provided by our Wednesday Bible Study Programme, which members of the community derive both spiritual and social fulfilment.

The Friday youth club continues to grow and provide a hub for young people to meet, play games, socialise and also receive spiritual encouragement to promote change in their lives and actively provide for them a safe space in the community.

In development from the Cap programme in 2021 we started the process to open a food bank and community café; we recognised the need for this type of assistance within the community and realise this as an opportunity to give an inclusive and all-round service to users.

The church kitchen was fitted with all commercial appliances in preparation for the food bank and community café and the environment meet health and safety requirements.

Independent examiner's report on the accounts

Section A Independent Examiner’s Report


Report to the trustees/ members of On accounts for the year ended Set out on pages	GLORY OF CROSS MINISTRY

	31stDecember 2022	Charity no (if any)	1180128

	1-7

Respective The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s responsibilities of trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the trustees and examiner Charities Act 2011 (“the Charities Act”) and that an independent examination is needed. The charity’s gross income did not exceed £250,000 due to the COVID-19 and for consistency I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of [Association of Chartered Certified Accountants .

It is my responsibility to:

examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention

Basis of independent examiner’s statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. 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 accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which examiner's statement gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:

the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

I have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
