During this year the church has seen growth in its members and now have visitors attending and have seen the attendance in young adults returning and visiting more often especially when invited. The children’s ministry has seen good growth with parents attending presentations and community meals to support their children and the children themselves are evangelising in the community. The church is now seeing growth and encouraged to continue in prayer and keep prayer as the foundation of both personal growth and corporate growth and to walk in love and to show love and are reminded that we are a community church and outreach coupled with charity is the core foundation of the gospel of Jesus Christ, in whom we as the church, should mirror.
This year as stated above the church has been focusing on unity and prayer and providing support to the children in the community through warm spaces, cookery classes and teaching them biblical principles, behaviour management, bible texts, weekly to instill reminders to choose good over bad. The church continues to provide a weekly gathering and cook community meals each week for all who visit or attend and to encourage the children to learn to prepare home meals as they grow.
The Women’s ministry is growing with members being more confident in the word of God and understanding. Women are encouraged through biblical teachings and counselling to bring awareness of self. The online biblical studies is also growing. The church is now looking to partner with local residence operating at grass roots level to help with outreach to meet community needs, irrespective of whether person or families attend the church.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of
WITHOUT WALLS COMMUNITY CHURCH
For the year ended 31 March 2025
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts.
The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under Section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the 1993 Act)) and that an independent examination is required. The charity's gross income exceeded £25,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of FCCA.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under Section 43 of the 1993 Act
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under Section 43(7)(b) of the 1993 Act); and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of the independent examiner's report
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 statements below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 386 and 387 of the Companies Act 2006; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of Sections 394 and 395 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities have not been met; or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Chairman's Report
During the course of the year, the Church has made some spiritual progress but sadly we have not had any new additions to the Church Family by repentance and baptism in Jesus name. We've had a number of unsaved visitors throughout the year, however none has yet made a commitment to serve the Lord. We shall continue to pray for them that they will surrender their will to the will of God for their lives. The assembly in Camberwell is relatively small, but if we can work together we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us.
The Brotherhood, Women, Youth and Sunday School ministries have been encouraged to strive for excellence. Each department has submitted their objectives for the forthcoming year and we look forward to seeing the fruit of these new visions.
One-to-one Evangelism is ongoing. It is our desire to continually reach out to the community of Camberwell and surrounding areas. One way of doing this is to show our practical corporate social responsibility, as a church, by donating regular food contributions to Lewisham Food Bank in south east London. Prayer for the sick also continues to be carried out whether by home visit or via telephone.
An ongoing objective of the charity is to purchase its own premises. We will continue to seek and trust the Lord to provide us with our own sanctuary.
We had babies brought for dedication unto the LORD; we pray that these children will go on to be regular attendees of our Sunday school so that they can be nurtured in the word of God as they grow. We continually remind and encourage those who have not yet received the infilling of the Holy Spirit to seek for and receive this gift by faith. Our annual Outreach and Evangelistic service was held in August 2016, and included a seminar on our theme: "It's Harvest Time". The meeting was well supported by other churches and non-member visitors. On the first Sunday of October we also served the Lord's Supper.
Future Aims
To continue to develop and inspire the Church's knowledge of God's word;
To see more souls saved for the Kingdom of God;
To "endeavour to keep the unity of the spirit in the bond of peace" Ephesians 4:3;
To be successful in the purchase of our own Church building which can be dedicated to the glory of God; and
To do more practical work within the local community and beyond.
