## WALKING LIKE JESUS MINISTRIES
ANNUAL REPORT AND UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 30 JUNE 2022
OFFICIAL
The trustees of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the period ended 30 June 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).
## **Objectives and Activities**
## **Objectives and aims**
The principle objectives of the charity continue to be:
1. The advancement of the Christian faith in any part of the world
2. The preaching and teaching of the Gospel of Jesus Christ through events hosted by the charity or other charities
3. The relief of poverty, suffering and social deprivation in any part of the world
## **Public benefit**
The charity trustees have complied with their duty to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the Charity Commission in exercising their powers and duties.
## **Achievements and Performance**
The charity is in its 2[nd] year and is continuing to grow and expand its reach. We held the Tent Revival for the second time to start that year, where people from all over the UK and overseas attended the event. This was the largest event held by Walking Like Jesus Ministries as the charity hosted 15 nights of services to the wider community with no charge to attend. There was a total of 5,000 attendees for the 15 nights and it has now become an annual conference still attracting many from all over the globe. The Tent Revival was supported by local church leaders across the nation. In particular, outreach ministries such as Teen Challenge were able to bring their young people with serious addictions to this event, and they were freed from drugs and a life of negativity during these meetings. Many others that were attendance also testified to have been set free from several other addictions during the services and have since gone to live successful and drug free lives.
The charity continued to work with the local council and the safety advisory group for central Bedfordshire. Our risk assessments and health and safety plans were endorsed as a result which led to the safe and successful delivery of the event. The charity also gained significant support from their partners and donors that were in attendance.
Along with this full 15-day event, the charity also hosted 2 further events in October 2021 and November 2021. The former event was a women’s conference hosted by Pastor Tanya Chand, where over 250 ladies from across the nation were in attendance. The charity was able to provide several free giveaways to ladies that were present at the conference, especially to those that were less privileged and benefited from such resources. The whole day of the conference was well received and has now been established as an annual event which ladies across the nation could benefit from.
The latter event was the charity’s 3[rd] annual Evangelism Training School which had over 200 evangelists attend. A number of guests leading local evangelistic ministries or working for large-scale organisations (e.g. Billy Graham Evangelistic Association) were present to speak at the event alongside Evangelist Daniel Chand, host and leader of Walking Like Jesus Ministries. Following this conference, many other exciting new initiatives were launched including the use of a multi-purpose stage trailer, in which renovations were completed in December 2021, on local outreaches across the UK cities, starting with Oxford in July 2022.
OFFICIAL
Throughout the financial year, the charity has been committed to providing weekly services every Sunday at 4 PM at the Chrysalis Theatre in Milton Keynes. In January 2022, the charity announced the launch of Pragma Church which fulfilled many needs within the local community. The church, which is part of the Charity has grown from a weekly attendance of 90 to 140 people on average and many have committed to be members of Pragma Church. The children’s church has also grown significantly and the church continues to reach the local community through regular outreach each week.
The charity also hosted it’s 4[th] annual evangelism training school in April 2022. The Evangelism Training School continues to be a well-attended event attracting many evangelists; locally, nationally and globally to experience a full-day of teaching on a variety of evangelical topics, as well as the opportunity to join in future nationwide outreaches. One of which was the church rally organised by the charity in Trafalgar Square, London in June. About 400 people were in attendance and the charity collaborated with other ministries as well as the Greater London Authority to put up a gospel campaign and national outreach. The charity received many reports of people who were set free from all types of oppression including depression and anxiety.
Throughout the year, the charity continued to produce many programmes for media outlets such as TBN UK and GOD TV, which has led to ever increasing success and further opportunities to expand the media platform of Walking Like Jesus Ministries.

## **Future Work**
The charity continues to grow financially through our evangelical and ministerial activities. Since we have successfully launched Pragma Church, hosted evangelical events and increased our media presence, our vision for the next few years is to acquire a building. This would become the headquarters of the charity which would have a multi-faceted purpose that are:
- To hold regular weekly services for our congregation made up of families and young adults.
- To hold evangelical meetings and conferences (indoors and outdoors) throughout the period.
- To accommodate a state-of-the-art studio where all of our media is produced and distributed to a global audience.
Our current predictions show that we would need to raise £2.75 million pounds for this type of building. Our fundraising activities for this initiative are primarily driven through online broadcasts and social media channels to acquire this level of funding.

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
**Independent** The charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to **examiner's statement** undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the association of accounting technicians.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination (other than that disclosed below *) which 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 no concerns and 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.
