UNIFICATION OF CHERUBIM & SERAPHIM CHURCHES, EUROPE CHAPTER

TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE Y/E 31ST OCTOBER 2023

As Trustees, we are grateful to the members of the Unification for their membership fees / subscription which have slightly increased to £6782. A positive and stable payment of membership fees in a situation where Churches in Europe are struggling in finances is an important sign of continued commitment.

We note with thanks the contribution of the volunteers and the Executive Committee for the continuation of effective work with and for Cherubim and Seraphim Churches in Europe.

We immensely value the continued support and commitment of all member Churches and wish to encourage all Unification members to assist in ensuring that in challenging times, the continuation of effective work with and for our community remains our priority.

Despite the challenges, Unification continues its close cooperation with our ecumenical partners. We continue to participate in most National and International Ecumenical meetings held online and in-person where information and good practices were shared with our ecumenical partners. We also liaised regularly with our roots in Nigeria.

Our online quarterly general meetings and monthly Prayers Meetings continues through-out this reporting period. We arranged installation service of a new leader at the headquarters branch. Also, an end of the year thanksgiving and revival service for all members Churches.

The Association of Prophets and Prophetesses continued to meet online for their Prayer Meetings and Seminars. Likewise, The Army of Salvation Brigade and the Bible School met virtually. All groups met regularly to conduct Revival Services and continually worked on unity strategies to ensure no one is isolated.

The Trustees and the Executive Committee will continue to work for growth and progress of the CIO in the coming year to foster the objectives of the Unification. We commend this Report to our Member Churches and other Stakeholders.

For, and on behalf of the Trustees
