These activities reflect the church’s commitment to worship, prayer, discipleship, fellowship, and the spiritual growth of the congregation ## Church Council The church is overseen by a council of members who are elected by the general body. The council works closely with the Pastor to provide leadership and direction for the church’s activities and ministries. Regular meetings are held to review and assess all church activities, ensuring that any concerns or areas for improvement are identified and addressed promptly. Necessary changes are implemented for the benefit of the church, its members, the wider community, and the nation. The church council is responsible for the overall governance of the church, while the day-to-day management is carried out in collaboration with the Pastor. Financial matters are managed by the treasurer, and the church accounts are regularly reviewed and audited to ensure transparency and accountability. 4 ## - Summary of Charitable Activities for 2024 25 The church continued to carry out its charitable and religious activities throughout the year by conducting regular worship services, prayer meetings, fellowship gatherings, and spiritual programmes for the benefit of the congregation and the wider community. Various activities were organised to support spiritual growth, community participation, and religious education. 5 ## Financial Review The gross income for the period ended 31[st] July 2025 was £3,282.36. Total resources expended during the year amounted to £ 1,987.39, resulting in a surplus of £ 1,294.97 ## Public Benefit The trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's objectives and activities and in planning future activities. The Trustees judge that activities in pursuit of the above objectives fully meet the public benefit test, which they have kept in mind in planning programs for the charity. ## Statement of Trustees' responsibilities Law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each year, which give a true and fair view of the charity's financial activities during the period and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing financial statements giving a true and fair view, the trustees should follow best practice and: - Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently - make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent - Prepare the financial statements on the going-concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the charity will continue in business. The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose, with reasonable accuracy, the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with applicable law and regulations. The trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and for taking reasonable steps to prevent and detect fraud and other irregularities ## Risk Management The charity has assessed all the major risks to which the charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the charity, and is satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to major risks. ## Elevate Christ Ministries On behalf of all the trustees, I respectfully submit this report for your consideration.
