All Nations Revival Church Year Ended 31 March 2024 Report of the Trustees
The Trustees present their report and unaudited financial statements for the year ended 31st March 2024.
1. Structure, Governance and Management
1.1 Objectives and activities
The Charity was set up under a Trust deed dated 1st June 2021 and was registered with the Charities Commission on 5th August 2021. Charitable activity commenced in April 2022.
The charity's objects are:
To advance the Christian faith in accordance with the statement of beliefs in Mitcham, Surrey and in such other parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the trustees from time to time may think fit in particular but not so as to limit the generality of the foregoing through worship, evangelism, discipleship, prayer, fellowship and Christian instruction.
To help relieve sickness and financial hardship and to promote and preserve good health by the provision of funds, goods or services of any kind, including through the provision of counselling and support in the said location and in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the trustees from time to time may think fit.
To fulfil such other purposes which are exclusively charitable according to the law of England and Wales and are connected with the charitable work of the Trust in such ways and in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the trustees from time to time may think fit.
1.2 Recruitment and appointment of Trustees.
The Trustees are the first members of the charity. All Trustees must subscribe and adhere to, in belief and lifestyle, the Statement of Beliefs. Trustees are appointed by a resolution passed by a simple majority of the Spiritual Leadership of All Nations Revival Church.
1.3 Risk Management
The Trustees are responsible for ensuring the charity is run to the best practice standards, according to the guidance of the appropriate professional bodies, in relation to the responsibilities of charitable organisations.
1.4 Organisational Structure
The trustees are responsible for the financial oversight of the church. The elders and leadership team oversee the spiritual leadership and government of the church, liaising with the trustees in all aspects affecting financial matters.
A working Project name of the charity is the ‘Jeremiah Project’, and when this name is used it relates to the activities of the charity as defined, and utilises funds under the ‘restricted funds’ category, given for the sole use of the community Project supported by, and working with other Churches in Mitcham.

1.6 Public Benefit
Our main activities and outreach into the community are seen in this section. All our charitable activities focus on giving support and assistance to people in church and our community in many ways including:
Pastoral and spiritual care, discipleship/mentoring, support, advocacy, encouragement, and counselling to wholeness. Safety and security to families, individuals, vulnerable adults, and children. Workshops and Christian education teaching in schools and the local community for children and adults. Partnership working with Mitcham Town Community Trust under the Jeremiah Project initiatives, and our active involvement through the Merton Street Pastors initiative. When planning our activities for the year, the trustees have considered the Commission's guidance on public benefit and in particular, the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. We try to enable ordinary people to live out their faith practically and spiritually as part of our community through: Worship and prayer; learning about the Gospel, discipleship, community engagement and developing their knowledge and trust and faith in Jesus Christ.
2. Review of Activities
2.1 All Nations Revival Church has met its objectives during 2023/24 in the following ways:
All Nations Revival Church has continued to serve its Members, the local community, including national and international involvement throughout another 12 months. The church family offers a community through worship, teaching, discipleship, pastoral care, evangelism, practical support and prayer for all its Members and to the wider community of Mitcham. We have continued to sustain personal involvement in people’s lives, and with continual community impact through our lives and ministries. We are passionate about being a church that knows God and the Bible – practicing what it preaches and being led by the Holy Spirit. We are also both a proactive and a reactive people, able to pioneer new ventures and respond quickly to needs and situations as they arise. Here are some of the specific activities we have engaged in during the year:
Faith in the workplace lunchtime Zooms, Bible Explorer lessons and Assemblies in many local primary schools over Easter, Harvest and Christmas, Messy Church, whole school project – pack a Christmas shoebox with 7 local schools, Christmas outreach services into three nursing homes, local pub, and at a bed and breakfast 80-bed home for homeless people. At Christmas we held for the 2nd year running a pop-up Nativity in partnership with Deen City Farm animals. We are developing stronger links with other like-minded church leaders in Mitcham and look forward to working together in the future. Safeguarding training was undertaken in June for all concerned.
We continued a Sunday teaching theme from the Old Testament prophets, “Prophets speak, but what do they say to us today?” as well as a more flexible preaching programme. Pastorally, we had one Dedication, two baptisms and sadly two unexpected deaths closely linked to the fellowship. A number of our members, including the youth, were trained and discipled to take part in the Franklin Graham “God Loves You Tour”. We also pioneered a Youth Discipleship Programme individually tailored to each person with a personal discipler. Our Pastor teaches the Walk through the Bible seminar programme occasionally in other churches, and travels from time to time in Europe teaching a leadership programme called History Makers with the International Leadership Institute.
Pastor Kevin gave notice during this time of his intention to stand down as Pastor in order to recruit and appoint a successor. A new leader for a new time. He intends to remain in post whilst reducing his paid working hours from September 2024 until the new appointment. Kevin will take a three month ‘transitional sabbatical’ May – August to help prepare himself, and the church for a new and exciting season ahead.
This is a flavour of some of the things that we have done this year and continue to pursue.
2.2 Trustees Overview
The Trustees are confident that this has been a fruitful and impactful year. The church has continued to fulfil its aims and objectives as recorded in this summary report.

2.3 Financial Review
Overview
Finances are regularly reviewed at Trustee meetings, and it is our culture and practice to handle all monies with sincere integrity. Checks and procedures are in place to ensure this is a realistic expectation. It has been a good year both spiritually and financially bearing in mind we have reduced in number during the year. Giving is regular and consistent, and although down on expenditure, we have good reserves to draw on. Our Pastor will be reducing his full-time paid hours to part-time from September 2024 whilst we are in transition to recruit and appoint his successor. Overall, we are thanking God for the generosity of our Members and his faithfulness in our financial provision.
Investment Policy
The Trustees endeavour to maximise the return on all the funds at their disposal. Currently funds are held in a current account with CAF Bank. Trustees are considering alternative solutions to ensure the best return is secured whilst retaining sufficient fluidity to meet revenue demands.
Reserves Policy
The Trustees acknowledge with thanks the generous and sacrificial donations from supporters. These funds are used in provision of the Objects of the charity.
3. Plans for Future Periods
The Spiritual Leadership and Trustees prayerfully monitor and review ministries and activities in accordance with fulfilling its charitable objectives.
4. Trustees' Responsibilities
The Trustees are satisfied that the charity is entitled to exemption from the provisions of the Companies Act (2006) relating to the audit of the financial statements for the year by virtue of section 477, and that no member or Trustees have requested an audit pursuant to section 476 of the Act.
The Trustees acknowledge their responsibilities for:

(ii) Preparing financial statements which give a true and fair view of the state of the charity as at the end of the financial year and of its surplus or deficiency for the financial year in accordance with the requirements of section 393, and which otherwise comply with the requirements of the Act relating to financial statements, so far as applicable to the company charity.
5. Independent Examination
The Trustees will seek to appoint Ryefield limited as independent examiners to the charity at the annual general meeting.
