## **WORTHING TABERNACLE**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020**
The trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 December 2020
The legal and administrative information together with the statement of trustees' responsibilities on page 6 form part of this report.
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities published on 16 July 2014, the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (FRSSE), the Charities Act 2011 and FRS 102, and comply with the church's constitution.
The accounts have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair view'.
This departure has involved following the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities published on 16 July 2014, rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
## **Structure, governance and management**
The charity was established by constitutions adopted on 10 May 1897 and 15 December 1923, and a scheme of 29 January 1981 as amended by an order of 7 February 2006 and 7 May 2008.
Worthing Tabernacle is an independent evangelical free church associated with the Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches (FIEC). We are a community of God's people of all ages, background and temperament. We seek to strengthen this community by loving relationships throughout church life. Our mission is to make disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ, baptising them into the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
We are committed to unity with those who are one with us in the truths of the Gospel and who recognise the final authority of scripture.
The trustees who served during the year were:
Mr E J Davison (resigned April 2020) Mr J Cook Mr J E Burling Mr R Owen Mr R Turnbull Mr A D Stubbs Mr S Mason Mr P Barrett Mr M Campbell Mr H Barnes-Moss Mr P Hedges Mr M Berwick
Constitutionally as far as practicable the trustees shall from time to time consist of the Pastors, the Elders for the time being and five other members of the church. The five other members of the church are chosen by the Eldership and come before a church meeting for a vote, a simple majority sufficing.
New trustees are advised of their obligations under charity law and the Charity Commission guidance on trustees' duties, and are informed of the content of the church's constitution.
1
As detailed at note 2 to the accounts, the only Trustees to receive remuneration are Mr R Owen and Mr S Mason, in their capacity as Pastor and Assistant Pastor respectively, not as trustees.
All trustees give of their time freely and receive no remuneration for this role.
The pay of key management is reviewed annually and maintained in line with church administrative salaries in the region.
The Pastors and Elders meet regularly, at least once or twice a month, and are responsible for the overall strategic direction, policies and ministries of the church. Responsibility for administering the expenditure previously agreed is delegated to the Deacons who have some discretion. Responsibility for the general administration of practical, rather than pastoral, areas of the fellowship is delegated to the Deacons, who progress their responsibilities and meet together both collectively and in sub-committees. Responsibility for administering the mission expenditure previously agreed, for the support of our personnel serving mainly overseas, is delegated to the Mission Council which usually meets monthly. All the finance functions of the charity are under the control of the Church Treasurer.
The Pastoral Team consists of the Pastors, Elder(s) and Administrator. This team directs the day to day ministries and activities of the fellowship, meeting both informally and together, usually weekly. The team is assisted in pastoral issues by a number of volunteers on an ad-hoc basis. Mr P Surtees was responsible for the day to day management of the charity until he left on May 13[th] prior to a move to Halifax. Katherine Campbell was appointed as Administrator in his place.
The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the church is exposed, in particular, those related to the activities and finances of the church, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks. Given the work the church carries out in the community, the trustees consider the charity to be a benefit to the public in the local area
## **Objectives and activities**
The trustees have considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the specific guidance for charities for the advancement of religion.
The Worthing Tabernacle's main purpose is to make disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ, baptising them into the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
The church uses a variety of assets and means to achieve this.
## **Assets**
Among other assets we have a lovely old church building, now over a hundred years old, in which we worship God in a mix of the traditional and contemporary.
Up to the time of Covid restrictions the church was open to the public on Sundays for a morning and an evening service; the Foyer area, in 2016, ceased to be open to the public on week day mornings but the public are encouraged to call into Chapel Books and Gifts should anyone be enquiring about the Christian faith, or needing Pastoral care, or just generally seeking information about either the church or the Town we're located in.
When we were allowed we started to live stream services which was well received and again as soon as it was possible in person services were reintroduced with all the necessary precautions being taken.
## **Means**
The first must be the preaching of the Word of God, and its application to hearts by the Holy Spirit; this is paramount in our fellowship. This takes place both to our own congregation and any members of the public who wish to attend, and to the wider public through our website and CDs/DVDs.
## **Prayer and fellowship**
Again when covid restrictions began all our mid week meetings went on Zoom so we were able to continue our prayer meetings for the whole church alternating with Home Groups (syn. Pastoral groups) in a very different format. Instead
2
of Home Groups meeting peoples homes for Bible Study and prayer we were able where possible to meet together online.. The prayer meetings are the engine room of the church - seeking the Lord together. The Home Groups are where people meet in smaller numbers, and can have more intimate fellowship, encouraging and supporting one another more closely than can take place in a large church meeting.
Finally, there are of course many other ministries which play their part in achieving our purpose; for example the Way In Coffee House which is a morning cafe, Chapel Gifts and Books - a Christian Book & Gift shop from which all surpluses go to projects of a relief and development nature, at home and abroad, CAMEO (a Mums & Toddlers group), etc. All these ministries have been curtailed or only reopened in a restricted and safe manner.
All of these ministries are open to, and attended by, the public.
## **Grant Making**
We make grants to various organisations and individuals, which are conducting activities consistent with the aims and objectives of our charity. The grants are for the costs associated with the work concerned, and the people doing the work are in many cases members of our church working in ministry overseas.
We also make ad-hoc grants to organisations, where funds permit, but again this is for activities consistent with our own work. The amounts concerned are either part of the annual budget review for regular grants or one-off ad-hoc disbursements based on available funds and to meet needs as they are made known to us.
## **Use of Volunteers**
Scripture (Ephesians 4:12) says that the role of ministers is to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up. Therefore it is the 'normal members', the 'laity' as it were, who are the engine room of church activities, with the ministers being the ones who play the supporting role in preparing God's people to do so. It is often said that ideally the Worthing Tabernacle is a ship, but with all crew and no passengers! We look to help every member find their place to serve, whether it be a person with much free time putting in many hours each week, or someone frail at home who commits to pray when they can. Whatever the level of input, everyone should be able to do something.
We value our volunteers very highly
## **Achievements and performance**
The Church continued to provide 2 services each Sunday, morning and evening, as well as Pathfinders (Reception to year 6) and Fusion (year 7 to 12) until Covid restrictions came into force. Since then only a morning service, live streamed, took place until restrictions were eased and an in person morning service was possible. Pathfinders did not restart and Fusion met on line.
Cameo, our Mothers and Toddlers Ministry, continued to operate on 2 mornings a week and is very well supported. Once again this ministry had to stop due to covid and has not reopened although those that attended have been regularly contacted through email
Food for Thought provided Lunch and an epilogue twice a month, again well supported until this ministry to closed down at the start of covid restrictions
The Mission Fund, which supports 6 individuals or couples serving both in this country and overseas, continues to a show a surplus due to the substantial tithe received from a legacy in 2015.
Our American Intern couple, Alex and Delainey Schubert continued with us through a difficult year for them.
The Church shops, Chapel Gifts & Books and the Way In Coffee Shop, continue to be well supported and distribute their profits to worthy causes at home and abroad. Locally, St Barnabas House, Chestnut Tree House and the Worthing Foodbank, and to a number of Christian projects including Blythswood Care, working in Eastern Europe, and Emmanuel Ministries working amongst street children in India. Both shops closed during lockdown and although Chapel Gifts reopened on reduced hours when allowed the Way In Coffee Shop has not reopened
The Worthing Foodbank, run by Jubilee Church, continued to operate from our premises as well as a drop in centre in the Coffee Shop on a Thursday afternoon supporting those who are struggling to cope with day to day life. Turning Tides served breakfast from our premises once a week for the homeless. These ministries were severely affected by covid restrictions.

The Church website continues to be well used and its contents remain under constant review.
Jacqui Papworth heads up the Treasury team.
The Governments Auto Enrolment Pensions Scheme continues for all eligible staff.
Apart from minor maintenance issues no substantial refurbishment was undertaken during 2020 although during lockdown the opportunity was taken to redecorate the church hall and open up the alcoves to let in more light. No money was put aside in 2020 for the Building Reserve which currently has £20K for Driveway and £10K for Rewire
## **Financial review**
Unrestricted expenditure exceeded incoming resources in the year by £261,125 mainly due to the legacy received in the year. Given the level of reserves, the trustees consider the charity's results and the financial position of the charity to be satisfactory. The trustees consider that reserves are adequate to cover 33 weeks expenditure, to act as a buffer fund, and will not be allowed to fall below 8 weeks expenditure.
The expected level of funding will be adequate to support the charity's needs over the next twelve months. Our considerations exclude designated funds and restricted funds, and the trustees are happy that the unrestricted reserves can cover any timing differences between spending and receipt of income, and to cover any emergency building repairs, for example.
The Worthing Tabernacle principally receives its funding from voluntary donations by the members of the church and regular attenders. Expenditure during the year under review is spent on the ministry costs of the church and the administration and property costs supporting those ministry costs. Ministry is the key objective of the charity, which is principally the preaching of the Gospel in the UK and overseas; the pastoral care of the members, regular attenders and visitors to the church; and various outreach activities conducted in the UK and overseas.
## **Plans for the future**
It was the churches intention to continue through 2021 with the existing services and ministries mentioned under Achievements and performance as well as to continue working alongside the Foodbank, Drop In Centre and Turning Tides but unfortunately we were unable to do so due to the lockdown. Live streaming of services, house group meetings and prayer meeting has been well received during the lockdown and will continue in some form alongside in person meetings as restrictions allow.
No further substantial refurbishment work is planned for 2021. Like other churches our activities are heavily reliant on volunteers many of whom are now getting quite elderly but continue to give faithful service. We give thanks to the Lord for each and every one of them.
Replacement workers will continue to be recruited from amongst the existing congregation and from new members to the church. This is an ongoing process which will continue into 2021 and beyond.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT**
## **TO THE TRUSTEES OF WORTHING TABERNACLE**
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2020, which are set out on pages 7 to 15.
This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with the Charities Act 2011. 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 work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed.
## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner**
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
- (i) examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
- (ii) to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
- (iii) to state whether particular 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 Commission. 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 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:
- (a) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
- (i) to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
- (ii) to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act;
have not been met; or
- (b) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

The Mission Fund was set up as part of out involvement in world mission, where we handle activities overseas through a separately focused sub-set of income and accounting. This covers missionaries from our own fellowship, those of other fellowships whom we have decided to support to some degree, and organisations involved in work to which we feel particularly warm.
The special collections total includes various donations given for ministries supported by the Worthing Tabernacle which have yet to be distributed.
