## **OBJECTIVES** 

The objects of the CIO are to advance the Christian faith for the public benefit in accordance with the statement of beliefs [and practices] in Sandwell & Dudley area and in such other parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the charity trustees may from time-to-time think fit and to fulfil such other purposes which are exclusively charitable according to the law of England and Wales and relate to the charity work of the charity. 

We ensure that ordinary people from the public can live out their faith according to conscience and law 

## **Board of Trustees (BOT)** 

The BOT has not changed and are willing to continue according to the tenure stated. Tenure started on the 20[th] of May 2020. 

Jude Ihugba for four years 

Chioma Munonyedi for three years 

Mgbechi Ihugba for two years 

The BOT are the main volunteers and assign roles/tasks during meetings. They have had regular meetings (more than 3 times a year) to ensure that the objective of the CIO is achieved. The church does not employ anyone, and the BOT have general oversight of all activities. 

## **Worship and Prayer.** 

We have continued to continue offering meetings where prayers can be made individually and collectively. We have done this via in-person meetings and on our zoom platforms. Our in-person meetings have been done at Park Methodist Church Tipton, who have allowed us to use their church hall in a paid arrangement. These meetings are open to the public, advertised in signage outside the church building and on Facebook. 

At present, we have a total of 16 persons who are regular worshippers. Our regular attendance can be much more due to resident and non-resident visitors attending carol services and mini-music festivals. We have had no change in membership numbers since moving into Park Methodist. 



Prior to moving into Park Methodist, we continued our in-person meetings in the open park to mitigate COVID-19 restrictions. These open-air meetings enabled us to provide faith related services to the public. 

The church has no assets apart from a blue tooth speaker, projector and projector screen.
