Section C Objectives and activities

Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document

The Object of the CIO is, for the benefit of the public, the advancement of the Christian faith in Bath, the United Kingdom and the world as the Charity Trustees may from time to time decide.

Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)

This period was dominated by Covid-19 and the attendant lockdowns and restrictions imposed by the government. Accordingly, none of the anticipated ‘in person’ meetings was able to take place indoors. But during the summer months we gathered on a Sunday out of doors observing the required social distancing.

The primary activities of the church during this strange year were to help sustain good mental and physical well-being of the members of the church through frequent telephone contact, meetings on zoom and so on. Much one-to one support was given informally from one member to another as needed.

Students were particularly isolated during this time and much contact was maintained with them to support their welfare. This was achieved through one-to-one meet-ups and also regular online discipleship teaching through studying the Bible together.

Financial support was maintained to the two primary charities with whom we partner, Beloved in Bristol and Hope for Tomorrow Global, a UK based charity working in Burundi.

TAR

Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

The main achievements of the church (charity) during the year were to alleviate loneliness through regular communication and the invaluable tool of Zoom which enabled video calls to be made. Discipleship was maintained together with regular prayer and Bible teaching.

Our financial support of Beloved enabled that charity to support and monitor the welfare of the women working in the massage parlour-based sex industry with whom they have built a friendship.

Our financial support of the ministry through HFTG in Burundi helped many destitute families to move towards food security by being trained in Foundations for Farming.
