## **Activities** 

## **Evangelism** 

Kingdom Ambassadors Centre has been able to share the Gospel with the local community through Evangelism. 

We regularly engage with the community of Tottenham, sharing our Christian journey and testimonies. 

Via leaflets we share encouraging scriptures as well as our contact details for prayer requests and mental support. 

We are constantly engaged with our online community, built throughout the year via our different channels of communication. 

We believe in spreading the love and the word of God; therefore, we use all social media platforms to communicate and share about our beliefs. 

## **Events** 

Throughout the year Kingdom Ambassadors Center schedules different events that aim at the spiritual and personal development of the community. 

KAC offers weekly, monthly and yearly events which will be further explained in the following: 

Weekly Services: 

## **Kingdom School** 

Kingdom School is a weekly gathering that offers a learning space and environment for teaching. 

Through these meetings, KAC’s Pastor, Randolf Adjei educates and shares in-depth knowledge and insights about the Gospel. 

For these sessions, students come prepared with their notebooks and pens as the session is followed by “Questions and Answers”. 

Kingdom school has a similar structure as a regular course in school. 

These classes enable the participants to gain more clarity on the gospel while pursuing their spiritual journey. 

## **Sunday Church service**

people who meet regularly to share the gospel and engage in activities such as Prayer and Worship. This has been recognized to be a great way to support members with their sense of belonging. The aim of these gatherings is to help group members grasp what the Gospel is saying about how they should relate to their real-life circumstances. 

## **KAN** 

The Kingdom Ambassadors Network is a community of believers coming together and aiming for fellowship. These gatherings organized by the Kingdom Ambassadors Centre are managed locally by a KAC member appointed by the leader of the house. 

The vision is to bring people to the knowledge of Christ and to fully equip them to live a daily Christian lifestyle. 

Participants in these meetings identify themselves as KAN members and are fully involved in the growth of the ministry. 

In 2023, KAN was extended to 5 networks in comparison to 2022 where there was only 1 established KAN. 

Monthly: 

## **Kingdom nights** 

Kingdom nights are congregational gatherings that bring the youth together for a time of worship and prayer. This event focuses on the ability to tarry in prayers. As well as interceding for the nation and one another. 

Through this experience, people are challenged to step out of their spiritual comfort zone. Kingdom Nights are monthly events that are scheduled on the third Friday of each month. 

Yearly: 

## **KISS** 

Our yearly Kingdom Infused Single Seminar is centred around relationships, financial success and spiritual lifestyle. 

This conference shapes our ability for decision-making in our Christian journey. KISS is organised once a year during Valentine’s weekend.

## **Independent Accountant’s Report** 

## **For the Year Ended 31 December 2023** 

I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 December 2023 which are set out on pages 11 to 14. 

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner 

The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 43(2) to the Charities Act 1993 (the Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to: 

Examine the accounts (under section 43 of the Act), follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 43(7)(b) of the Act), and to state whether matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner's report** 

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 examiner's statement** 

During 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 41 of the Act, and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 1993 Act; has 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.

Costs of generating funds comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income. Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the church in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. 

The staff cost in 2023 is due to employing our staff who is the church's local Pastor and leader. He was put on payroll in order to dedicate himself full time to activities related to the church. There is also an increase in Media related costs due to the church investing in equipment. 

Majority of the rental costs consisted of expenditure relating to the main place of worship situated on Unit 21 Millmead Business Center, Tottenham. In addition, 8 other networks around the United Kingdom, with 3 being launched in 2023.
