## **Section C                    Objectives and activities** 

**Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document.** 

The advancement of religion, specifically the promotion of the Christian faith and its public benefit to the community. 

- Advancement of religion, specifically the Christian faith: All along the period (01 October 2023 to 30 September 2024), we continued to have our weekly services at the charity registered address, teaching, speaking and living the Christian faith. This has been done through spiritual and social work. 

- Weekly services were focused on Christian teaching, worship and brotherly communion, which has had a beneficial impact on every participant, giving the sense of being part of a family and strengthening relationships. 

- Communal weekly meals have continued to be served at the end of each service, free of charge, so that any hungry person or anyone with a poor diet due to financial constraints could had a healthy and nutritious meal. 

**Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects.** 

- Donations have increased significantly, so that the funds could have been used to expand the charity’s objectives, with more allocation to new expenses categories (please see the charity’s Receipts and Payments accounts for the period). 

- Charitable events have continued to be carried out with the objective of attracting, connecting and spreading the Christian message to more people, as well as strengthening relationships. 

- The principles on which Life with Life Church operates have been preserved and focused on, with relationships having a central place, which continues to help people to deal with daily recurrent problems, as loneliness, depression, anxiety, other than financial and spiritual needs. 

- For all the asserted above we, trustees, can confirm that we have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission as for the public benefit, which have been available to the public in general. 

## **Additional details of objectives and activities** 

- This charity is funded by the donations of the trustees and the public in general, with the collections in the weekly services. 

- Donations are totally used for the charity purposes.
