Trustees’ Annual Report for the period

Objectives and Activities
| SORP reference | ||
|---|---|---|
| Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document |
Para 1.17 | The purpose of The Father’s House Grimsby is to exalt the name of Jesus Christ through gospel-centred teaching, discipleship, community & mission. We are an elder-led church seeking to advance the Christian faith through regular times of public worship, prayer & Bible study. We have a service at 10.30 every Sunday morning held in the YMCA building at 21 Freeman Street, Grimsby. We have sought to give & encourage pastoral care & have constantly reviewed our programme as our duty to ‘love one another’. We have supported charitable social action in the local community as several of our members continue to work in the food kitchen. We give monthly donations to 6 charities:- The Bible Society, Compassion (supporting a 8 year old boy in Ghana), Open Door ( supporting the persecuted Church ), Hope for Justice ( anti-slavery & human trafficking ), Christians in Ukraine and, beginning in March 23, to the Fellowship of Messianic Jews in Israel. We also support 2 missionaries – Steve & Mollie Brown in Cambodia & Steve Dulieu in Uganda. |
| Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts. |
Para 1.17 and 1.19 |
We have continued to meet in the YMCA every Sunday morning for a church service but now meet in the Weston Hall in the building at the earlier time of 10.30. On the last Sunday of the month we have a bring and share meal together. We also meet there every Thursday evening for prayer & bible study. There has been a slow increase in the attendance at our services but not as many of the residents of the hostel as we hope and pray for. In July we had 2 |
| baptisms which took place in an inflatable pool at Scartho Library where Celebration Church meet. In August our Deacon Steve Dulieu returned from his mission in Uganda and began writing his book, ‘The Grandpa Missionary’. On 21st December we held a Carol Service in the local Freeman Street market, joined again by Celebration Church. We gave a Christmas present to every resident as well as some of the staff ( a tin of sweets, card and Christian literature). In February we changed the name of our church to ‘The Father’s House Grimsby’ as well as changes to the constitution regarding membership. This involved changes to the website. In the time covered by this report we have held 4 Elder/Trustee meetings and 2 Members Meetings. |
