IMPACT
Here are some stories from the ME on the impact the SOTS Training is having.
-
Syria: "We all experienced a spiritual growth within ourselves of a proportion we never imagined, we ate and ate and drunk and drunk and drunk that spiritual food it was like sitting at Jesus' feet we didn't want to sleep, eat or do anything, we cannot wait to share this revolutionary teaching from Pastor Colin with our people".
-
Syria: "For the first time we understood clearly and we are able to relate to the rule and the Kingdom of God, the difficult concepts of the sermon on the mount and the Lord's prayer, at this conference pastor Colin gave us the tools and empowered us by training and imparting an anointing enabling us to reach out fearlessly to the most radicals fellow Muslims in our towns and cities.”
-
Syria: "We the converts have no spiritual home, as no church would allow us even to attend as visitors, fearing reprisals from the local Muslim community, yet Pastor Colin comes all the way from London risking his life being with us in hiz allah territory, to ground us in the word of God, enabling us to witness effectively to our people.”

-
Iraq: "no amount of thanks would ever express our love and gratitude for pastor Colin. To us he is an apostle. Only with two visits the Muslims feel unsafe and insecure, with some more visits and learning from Dr Colin, this region will not be the same ever again.”
-
Syria: “I didn't realise the healing power of what I was taught until, having been equipped, I began to reach out with what I had learnt from pastor Colin and see the life that it imparts.”

IMPACT EXAMPLES

-
Emerson: “Having finished at IBIOL, I was Colin’s assistant for 2 years. Now I lead CfAN in Brazil. London was my home for several years, and KT is where I would be if the Lord had not called me back to Brazil.”
-
Willians & Sandra: “We look forward to what God has for us in Brazil and we know that our time in KTLCC was preparing us for what God is doing now. We are leading the training programme for an established church ministry in Sao Paulo and are using Colin’s training materials.”

Trustees Report For the period ended 30 September 2023
3. Financial Review
3.1 Financial Activity and Financial Position
The Charity is funded by donations from supporters. The Charity’s cash resources increased by £32,018 during the period to £32,018.
3.2 Reserves Policy
The Trustees consider that, given the nature of the Charity’s work, free reserves should be equivalent to approximately 3 months’ routine general fund expenditure, plus committed future expenditure on other projects, where funds permit. The Trustees are of the opinion that this provides sufficient flexibility to cover temporary shortfalls in incoming resources and will allow the Charity to cope and respond to unforeseen emergencies whilst specific action plans are implemented. At 30 September 2023 the Charity had net free reserves of £32,018.

4. Responsibilities of Trustees for the Accounts
Charity law requires the Trustees to prepare accounts for each accounting period which record the receipts and payments of the charity for the period. The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable us to ensure that the financial statements
comply with the Charities Act 2011. The Trustees also have a responsibility to safeguard the assets of the charity and to take reasonable steps to prevent fraud or any other irregularities.
5. Approval
The report of the Trustees was approved by the Trustees on 17 June 2024 and signed on its behalf by:

ASLAN MINISTRIES (FORMERLY COLIN DYE MINISTRIES)
Independent Examiner’s Report For the period ended 30 September 2023
I report on the accounts of Colin Dye Ministries for the period ended 30 September 2023, set out on pages 6 to 8.
This report is made solely to the Trustees in accordance with section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act). My independent examination has been undertaken so that I might state to the 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 the law, I do not accept responsibility to anyone other than the Trustees for my independent examination, for this report, or the opinions I have formed.
RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER
The Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this period (under section 144(2) of the Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
Examine the accounts (under section 145 of the Act);
-
To follow the procedures laid down in the General Direction given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Act); and
-
To state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
BASIS OF INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S STATEMENT
My examination was carried out in accordance with General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the 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 the Trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S STATEMENT
In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view’ which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
