CHARITY NUMBER: 1192049

Structure, Governance & Management

Christ Heart Church (CHC) International is registered with the Charity Commission in England and Wales; Charity Number 1192049.

During the year, the Trustees formally met twice to discuss the progress of the church and to plan for the next year. The Coronavirus Pandemic beginning March 2020 had a significant effect on the operations and activities of the organisation, as well as the plans and aspirations that had been made for the period. The church was meeting o

nline due to the Coronavirus Pandemic.

CHC has Management Team that is responsible for the coordination and implementation of all policies and activities of the Church which consist of:

Secretary: Mr Emmanuel Kusi (Trustee)

Chair: Rev Ebenezer Adibuer Puplampu

Treasurer: Ms Jennifer Gilbert (Trustee)

Vice Chair: Mrs Trudy Atswei Puplampu (Trustee)

Recruitment and Induction of Trustees

The current trustee board are open to further recruitment of additional members to enhance, broaden and increase the skill set to support the running of the Church and advance the vision.

Trustees will be appointed on their Christian beliefs, character, and commitment to the vision of CHC.

Prior to the recruitment of new trustees, the trustee board will complete an updated Skills Audit to ensure that areas of need are covered or highlighted. This audit will help us identify growth and development needs within the existing board in order to fill those gaps for the smooth running of the Church.

Aims, Objectives & Values

The object of CHC is:

To advance the Christian faith in accordance with the Statement of Faith,
The provision of a place of Christian witness by providing a place for Christians to meet Christians and non-Christians.
the provision of facilities for teaching, worship, and prayer.

The aims of CHC are:

To promote community service, evangelise and share the Christian faith and values and to preach the Gospel of Jesus
To cultivate an inclusive and open place where people are accepted whatever their story
To meet the spiritual and physical needs of the church with food, drink, relationship, creativity and prayer
To provide a place of refuge and relationship, especially for those with need or vulnerability
To work alongside local churches, community groups and schools to encourage open conversation and exploration of faith
To serve high quality and responsibly sourced food and drinks and exemplify sustainable and ethical business practices

Christ Centered : Our primary focus is to further the great commission, by preaching the good news of Jesus Christ while sharing his love in practical ways to the church and wider community. Here at CHC, we welcome people to come and share the Christian faith with us provide food to those in need and sometimes provide refreshments after church services.

Open to All : No matter what background, race, gender, age, ability or political leaning, everybody is welcomed to fellowship with us. There is beauty in celebrating diversity of people and culture, and we do have culture and diversity services to celebrate diversity of culture and people.

At CHC we welcome people who want to listen to the Gospel of Jesus to transform their lives through the teachings of the Bible. We will strive to reach out to those in our community who may find it difficult to come in.

Personal Faith : We recognize that each person will have an individual encounter with Christ and each journey and life experience will be different. We encourage those who join us to openly share their faith experiences including any challenges, concerns or questions with the aim of guiding them along their personal walk with Christ. We want Christians to be rooted and grounded in the Word of God and to this end we encourage questions to be

asked, opinions to be challenged and for the search for truth to be an exciting and guided experience.

We will always welcome conversation, offer prayer, support, and point to other help as necessary. We do not presume to have all the answers. We hope local churches, community groups and people will find each other under our roof.

Generous Giving : CHC only exists through generous giving. We believe in finding unmet need; doing more than the minimum; in putting the last, first. During Sunday Services our church members give offerings which we use to run the church. Our daily activities are run by volunteers, church members, trustees and supporters who help with their time, skills, resources, encouragement and prayers. We look for creative ways to give generously to our guests, provide for those in need and to other organisations and projects.

Review of Activities

Prayer Team

We have a prayer team that coordinates our Prayer and Bible Studies meetings on Fridays (virtual) and Sundays (virtual and face to face). They intercede and pray for people who may need prayers for various reasons.

Communications Team

During 2021 and beyond, there have been regular communications with church members via face-to-face church meetings and on zoom meetings. We also have a WhatsApp group where information is shared with all church members.

These platforms help us to communicate with our members and to preach the Gospel of Jesus to our members.

Programmes

We have organised recreational activities for instance; walks and jogging this year. We have also been on evangelism missions this year.

Prior to the Coronavirus pandemic we met in a school but with the onset on the virus we moved to online worship on Sundays and Fridays. Following a risk assessment, it was deemed appropriate to continue to meet virtually until the Pandemic was over.

We carried out child protection seminars to educate our members and the community on how to safeguard their children and young people

Public Benefit

The Trustees confirm that they have complied with Section 4 of the Charities Act 2006 to have due regard to the Charity Commission's general guidance on Charities and Public Benefit.

Risk Review

During the year, Trustees reviewed significant risks relating to the charity, with a focus on ensuring new processes and communication materials complied with new GDPR legislation.

No safeguarding or serious incidents occurred during the financial year.
