SURBITON NEW LIFE BAPTIST CHURCH 

for the Year Ended 31 March 2023 

## Report of the Trustees 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable activities** 

The year 2023 was a year dedicated to deepening our connection with the Lord through intentional love (Matthew 22:37-40). It has been a remarkable year of growth, faith, and community at Surbiton New Life Baptist Church. 

As part of our commitment to love the Lord intentionally, we expanded our community outreach programs by starting Tots and Carers (after the long break during the lockdown), which has seen new and familiar families attending. The Well has served several homeless individuals this year, providing not only nourishment for the body but also spiritual nourishment through prayer and encouragement through the sharing of the Word of God. Additionally, some church members have been volunteering their time and resources to assist those facing hardships in our community through pastoral care and evangelism. This has exemplified the love of the Lord in tangible ways. 

## **Mission/Evangelism** 

We continue to support the BMS with the missionary work they do within the UK and overseas. We raise money to support their efforts during our annual harvest and we take part in the birthday scheme as well as the postage stamps collection, which was recently stopped. We also continue to support the youth mission in Romania where Iulian has been doing a great missionary work with the young ones and these missions have been transformative for both missionaries and those who are witnessed to. 

## **Prayer** 

John Wesley once said, 'God does nothing except in answer to believing prayer'. Scripture in James 5:16 tells us in the NKJB "the effective and fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much." 

SNLBC currently has three regular prayer meetings comprising Bethel Encounter, which is held at Langley Road between 10.30 and midday every Wednesday morning. Starting with scriptures and our prayers cover various topics including those in need within the fellowship but also for national and international situations during these troubled days. People who come to pray vary each week but there are usually between 4 to 8 people. 

Two prayer meetings, which began in the Covid lockdown still take place on Wednesday and Friday evening from 7pm to 8pm on Zoom. Regular people attend these online gatherings and are now very small in number. However, they are often powerful times, and we see many answered prayer. 

Prayer is a regular part of church services on Sunday morning. A small group of people pray before the service for a short time at the front of the church for the service and for those leading and preaching. Prior to Covid lockdown this time of prayer always took place in the garden room again with regular attenders. Prayer before church can be difficult as the church is often noisy with things happening as people take their seats and greet friends. Not very conducive to prayer. 

## **Bible Studies** 

Our daily Bible studies, weekly prayer gatherings (and on zoom) coupled with the Home Groups, where members come together to deepen their relationship with God through prayer, reflection, and scripture study has helped foster a sense of spiritual intimacy and unity among our church family. 

## **Music Team** 

The music team will be led by Julian Orton and is preparing to begin rehearsals and again lead workshop service shortly. 

## **Youth/ Children** 

Our youth ministry 316 and Junior Church have thrived this year. We introduced a study on "Living for Jesus" at the beginning of the year that has helped the young ones to learn how to live holy and righteous lives for the Lord in accordance with scriptures. We have seen the young ones invite their classmates and friends to join our meetings.

## Report of the Trustees 

## for the Year Ended 31 March 2023 

Moreover, through engaging activities and discussions, these young ones have learned the importance of cultivating an intentional love for the Lord from a young age. 

The Lighthouse programme was discontinued as our Young Adults group (20 to 40 year olds) started and some have come together to pray and go out for evangelism in the community. Arrangements have been made for regular meetings, where various activities will be held, including Bible studies, talks, movies, outreach, and away days/weekends. 

## **Men's Meeting and bible study groups** 

The men of the church have met regularly at Langley Road to study the bible. There are approximately six regular attendees to this Saturday morning meeting. Moreover, our weekly Bible studies and Home Groups have allowed our members to dive deeper into their faith and develop a more profound love for the Lord and His Word. 

## **Balaclava Road** 

The premises has been used regularly by hirers since the end of the lockdown. Regular hires have continued. Evergreen Church also meets at Balaclava Road on a Sunday. 

The Well was once again active and has received good volunteer support. 

## **Pastoral Care** 

Home Group Bible studies are a great way of both growing spiritually and fostering Christian community. At present there are two mixed adult home groups in the church, both held fortnightly. The meetings are centred on Bible study, but we also pray for one another and for others, and we enjoy our fellowship very much. 

We have studied several of the Psalms, together with related events in the life of Jesus, looked at length on the life of Peter and what he learned throughout his time as a disciple of Jesus, and now we are going through the Acts of the We have also  studied Great Prayers of the Bible. 

## **Security** 

Security of both Balaclava and Langley Road premises remained under contract with Chubb with major incidents recorded. 

## **MANSE** 

The pastor and his family continued to enjoy the manse during the financial year, with no major issues or concerns reported. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Reserves policy** 

It is the opinion of the Charity Trustees that there are sufficient reserves to maintain on-going operations. The trustees have complied with the duty in sections 17(5) of the 2011 Charity Act to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

The church is controlled by its governing document, a constitution, and constitutes a charitable incorporated organisation, company number CE017081, a charity registered as a body corporate under part 11 of the Charities Act 2011. It is also governed by the rules of the London Baptist Association

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
