Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31st December 2022
The trustees are pleased to present their report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2022.
Structure, Governance and Management
Objectives and Activities
Adura Lo’gba Agbara Ko Ministry (It’s by Prayer not by Might Ministry ) are to propagate the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Christian Counselling, Advice, and Information
In propagating the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ, the parish engaged in evangelism, prayer sessions, spiritual counselling, advice, and information to the general public during regular weekly services. These extend to assisting members and non-members in housing and financial needs, the provision of regular 'Health Check' for all to attend and discuss them health problems and have medical check-up with volunteer Doctors and Nurses. This forum has been very helpful in dictating early symptoms of sicknesses and illnesses and referring the affected to hospitals for treatment and cure.
Financial assistance for charitable objects
The parish donated generously to many individuals in need, such as destitute, the disabled and the sick in our society. We also rendered financial support to various organisations in support of their own humanitarian and charitable activities
Other Charitable activities
Other charitable activities include spreading the Word of God among all nations and announcing the good news of the Kingdom of God to the poor in spirit. This was done through our Spiritual Worships which are open to the general public, revivals, healings, and evangelism which are conducted to stimulate spiritual awareness among the people, seminars and symposia which are organised for people to know and understand more about the Word of God
Financial Sources
The church income comes mainly from the weekly tithes and church building funds, other church contributions such as thanksgiving, annual conference, travel, and music funds.
Acquisitions for Musicial and IT equipment
During the year under review, the church bought new musical instrument to aid in the objective of furthering their core charitable objective. We also bought IT equipment as well.
Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities
The Board of Trustees are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
Charity law applicable to charities in England/Wales requires the Board of Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which gives a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of the surplus or deficit of the Charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements the Board of Trustees have:
-
Selected suitable accounting policies and applied them consistently.
-
Made judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent,
-
Stated whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any
-
material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
Prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis (unless it is inappropriate
-
to presume that the Charity will continue in operation).
The Board of Trustees has overall responsibility for ensuring that the Charity has an appropriate system of controls, financial and otherwise. They are also responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 1993. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the detection and prevention of fraud and other irregularities.
The Board of Trustees is responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

Independent Examiner’s Report for the Year Ended 31st December 2022
I report on the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities and Balance Sheet with associate notes.
This report is made solely to the charity's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 and regulations made under section 154 of that Act. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's Trustees as a body, for my examination work.
Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner
The charity's Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements, and they consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
Examine the accounts (under Section 145 of the Charities Act).
-
To follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners (under Section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act); and
-
To state whether matters have come to my attention.
Basis of Independent Examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Group/Charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view, and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent Examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act; and
-
to prepare financial statements which accord with the accounting records and
comply with the accounting requirements of the Act have not been met; or
2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

Notes to the Financial Statement for the Year Ended 31st December 2022

The principal accounting policies are set out below. The accounting policies have been adopted consistently throughout the year.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of certain fixed assets, and are in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities issued in March 2005 and the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008).

b) Incoming resources from generated funds Incoming resources from generated funds represents donations towards weekly tithes, church building fund, thanksgiving, annual conference, travel and other contributions
-
c) Incoming resources; Interest receivable Interest is credited in the year in which it is received.
d) Resources expended
Expenditure is recognised when a liability is incurred. Funding provided through contractual agreements and performance related grants are recognised as services are supplied. Other grant payments are recognised when a constructive obligation arises that results in the payment being unavoidable.
Costs of generating funds are those costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, and those incurred in activities that raise funds.
Grants payable are payments made to third parties in the furtherance of the charitable objectives of the Trust. Single or multi-year grants are accounted for when either the recipient has a reasonable expectation that they will receive a grant and the trustees have agreed to pay the grant without condition, or the recipient has a reasonable expectation that they will receive a grant and any condition attaching to the grant is outside of the control of the Trust.
Provisions for grants are made when the intention to make a grant has been communicated to the recipient but there is uncertainty about either the timing of the grant or the amount of grant payable.
Governance costs include those incurred in the governance of its assets and are primarily associated with constitutional and statutory requirements.
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated at rates estimated to write off the cost of all tangible fixed
assets over their expected useful lives:
Equipment, Fixtures and Fitting: 20%
During the year under review, the church decided to continue to separate its equipment from its furniture fixtures and fittings. A depreciation rate of 20% was applied on each category on a reducing balance basis.
