ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Page 1 of 9
The organisation, through distribution of tracts, group & individual virtual evangelism has continued to propagate the gospel throughout the communities in spite of increasing cost of living.
As a religious registered charity, numbered 1203589, our core has been to reach, teach and advance the Christian faith and help the local community with a focus on unemployment, homelessness, anti-social behaviour, fighting hunger/ food poverty and reducing waste.
Weekly in our Board meetings, crafting better ways to enhance the lives of our local community takes the centre stage, hence the need to set up Care Group Centres. Our care group centres is an online community that helps to look out for residents in need, by having care group leaders who do everything possible to scout for those that require help and assistance. They are added to the groups platform where we are then able to reach and touch them. Weekly, there are study sessions which gives us in depth awareness into most of the challenges they go through. And we can categorically say that a lot have benefitted from our counselling sessions. And our welfare scheme which is a vital part of the Care Group centres cater to the physical needs of residents.
Certainly, we know that most times when people experience counselling and platforms are not created to ensure they become active in responsibility groups they could slide into very dangerous habits because of exposure to bad company. So, the Redeemed Assemblies (CENA) also created the Service Teams System. Here, we created an avenue whereby all those with certain skill/s or giftings could make very productive use of them like singing, acting, playing the instruments, maintenance, ushering, sound etc. They are able to connect with those of same expertise. And we can boldly say that over the years, so many have been well trained while a lot have served and are still serving in those service teams.
Even though we know we may not be able to completely solve the shelter issues of most residents, we have really done so much in terms of providing Temporary Shelters for most residents that have taken advantage of our Care Groups Platforms. There would have been no way we would have peace in our heart knowing that there are still people who are unprotected from the biting cold. To a very large extent, we can say that we have maintained a very strong commitment to a vital aspect of our objectives which is to provide temporary homes for the homeless.
There was no change of trustees of The Redeemed Assemblies (CENA) during this period.
The Men's, Women's, Youth and Children ministries marked their respective yearly anniversaries by organising forums to discuss various issues related to men, women, youth, children and family relationships. These programmes also attracted a lot of participants and helped resolve a lot of domestic issues. The church also organised marriage seminars to help married couples in and out of church community. Though this year was challenging, by the grace of God we were still able to reach many with the help of technology and we are looking forward to operating differently when we go in person with the experience gained during this difficult time.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
