the charity's goN'eming document. the Charities Aci 201 l and the relevant version of the Stateinent of Recominended Practice
applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in ihe UK and
Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
AIM AND PURPOSE
The Order of the Cross is an infornial Christian Fellowship, dedicated to the Compassionale Life and the realisation of the
Christ within. Since its foundation in 1904 it has promoted a pacifist and vegetarian way of life.
Our aim is to offer SUp￿)rt and encouragement to all who would espouse the Aims and Ideals expressed through the writings
of the Founder, the Reverend J Todd Ferrier.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTtVlTIES
Objectives and .4etivities
The Order seeks to achieve the purpose through..
a) the holding of worship services, meditations and meetings where the Founder's writings (referred to as "the Teachings")
are read and studied in an elevated atmosphere conducive to spiritual aspiration and healing- and
b) the publication, sale and dissemination of the literature that contains the Teachings.
The Order organises and provides financial support for regular "Gatherings" of Members and Enquirers (interested non-
members) at retreat centres in the UK, North America and Australia. Central to the programmes of the Gatherings are worship
services and meetings to study the Teachings. The programmes include times of informal felloH'ship for individuals to share
experiences. Some of our services and Ga(herings are for attendance by families with children.
Worship services and meetings for the stud). of the Teachings are held in a few localities in the United Kingdom, North
America and Australia to which interested Enquirers may be invited. There are weekly services and readings by Conference
call and by videoconference ihat are particularly N'alued by isolated Nlembers and Enquirers.
The Members in local Groups appoint representatives to Area C.ounci1s who meet annually as United Councils whose function
is to support the spiritual culture of the Membership and to guide Enquirers in the Teachings and in the way of life of the
Members.
The Order announces itself (o the wider public by means of its IA'ebsite (orderofthecross.org) which is indicative of the nature
of the Teachings, hoTh' contaci may be made with the Order and how the Order's literature may be obtained.
The Trustees have considered the Commission's guidance on public benefit and, in particular. the specific guidance to charities
for the advancement of religion. The Tiustees seek io bring the Teachings to the attention of all those who may be drawn to
their deeply spiritual message and to include in the religious and social activities of the Fellowship any who may wish to share
in ihe personal development that such contaci brings.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Membership and Enquirers
Nqembership of the Order is available to those who show a deeplv held interest in the Teachings and a commitment to the way
of life described therein which includes non-violence and a strict vegetarian diet. Admission to Membership of the Order is
at ihe Trustees, discretion. Anyone seeking Membership applies in writing indicating wh> he or she wishes to become a
Member. The application mus( be supported in wriiing by tsvo Members. We are willing to welcome new Members regardless
of their colour, ethnicity, race, disability, Sexual orientation or religion.
The Trustees provide a point of conthci for members of the public through our H'ebsite (orderofthecross.org). It includes
attractively arranged material that indicates the nature of our values. literature and activities. We continually seek to improve
and refresh the w'ebsite.
We refer to individuals, non-members, who are interested in the Teachings as "Enquirers" Contact is usually made initially
by email. Where an Enquirer shows Strong interesi and looks for personal contact ive may be able to arrange this with a local
Group if there is one close to the Enquirer or by videocall or after an initial meeting we may invite the Enquirer to attend one
of our Gatherings. We send such Enquirers a regular publication. 'Spiritual Reflections" that includes articles relating to the
Teaching5 and the programme of forthcoming Gatherings. This Serves as a form of contact with those seeking to understand
more of the life to which the Order calls.
All Members worldwide receive a regular Newsletter of articles and infomiation. There is no membership fee. Members and
Enquirers may make financial contributions on an entirely voluntary basis. The Order does not conduct any public fund-
raising.
Meillbers may be inwited to minister at worship seTh'ices or to lead study meeting5. Members sometimes minister at funerals.
Members train for this ministry initially through participating in the activities at local level. or at Gatherings. and then through
leading services and study meeiings in small groups and through infornial guidance and feedback.
oirices held by fvlembers are honorary. Members ma>. claim Iravel and other incidental expenses necessary for the
perfomiance of their duties.
Areas and Coullcils
The UK is divided into Areas where Nlembers within each .4rea may meet in Council at least once a year to share the
experiences of the work in the Area, to plan Area Gatherings of NIembers and Enquirers and to consider any other inatters
that may arise. Each .4rea may send one or more representatives for a similar annual sharing in a body known as the "United
Councils" where there are also represenlatives sent from North America and Australia.
A representative from each Area in the UK, North America, Australia and New Zealand together with an executive cornprising
Chairman, Treasurer and Clerk meet twice during the >'ear in a committee knO￿n as ihe United Councils Committee. The
Committee organises a meeting as the United Councils with Representatives and Members that in 2024 was held at the start
of the Easter Gathering {see under Gatherings). C105e liaison between the United Councils and the Trustees, including joint
meetings between ihe United Councils Committee and the Trustees, ensures that the views and needs of all Members of the
Order are taken into account.
The structhre of the Councils is such thal everyone who is deepl) inlerested in and involved with The Order of the c.ross as a
Member or Enquirer can have their needs recognised, their ideas considered and their spiritual life nourished. Members of
the c.ouncils pay particular attention to keepints in contact with frail, isolated and neil. Meinbers in their Areas. They contact
Enquirers who have expressed the desire to know more of the Order Teachings and ihe way of life of the Members.
The Areas and Councils are essential to the canying out of the Order's charitable objectives. The United Councils C,ommittee
receives income from the Orderfs restricted fund5. Thev may receive donations from Members. The Councils draw as and
when needed from the Order's unrestricted funds. The financial reporting of the United C4)uncils Committee is consolidated
into this Annual Report and Accounts.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
The Order's Work in North America
The American membership is a ¢lose-knit community that shares together frequently. The American Council (NAA) sees to
the activities of the fellowship, and the USA Corporation administers the investments and sees the council has the funds it
requires to operate.
The Uniled States and Canada are grouped into three regions b). time zones- Eastem, Central and Western. Each region has a
leader that corresponds either bj. email or phone calls w'ith members in their area for any needs or wants that they may have.
The representative of each region gives their report at the annual North American Area (NAA) meeting.
Members and Enquirers are encouraged to attend the NAA gathering. One day is set aside during the ￿eek for council matters
which includes the area reports. literature. and treasurer's report among many other items on the agenda as members consider
the needs of the fellowship in North America.
This year's meeting was held at the Ojai Retreat Centre in California during Septetnber. Over thirty mernbers and enquirers
attended from the Western, Central, and Eastern areas, the United Kingdom and New Zealand. During the week worship
services, meditations and studies were shared daily. The Tn￿lee Liaison reported on the Work being done across the world
and the changes that happened the past year.
Several enquirers were sent literature and books from the Westem region bookstore in Barstow. Califomia this >'ear. A
quarterly American Newsletter is sent from the editor in the Central region to link the members and to make them aware of
what is happening in North America.
Australia and New Zealand
An international gaihering took place in Adelaide in November ?023, with attendees from various parts of Australia, from
New Zealand, and from the UK. During the )'ear. the Ausiralian Council ceased to function and members are continuing to
communicate by video conference calls and in some cases visiting other meinbers for weekends of felloivship and study.
Preparations were made for a gathering in January 20?5 in New Zealand which some Australian members attended. Those
who w'ere able to travel to either the UK or USA to attend gatherings were encouraged to request assistance with flI￿)ts and
accommodation as appropriate.
International Conference Calls
The sharing of services and meetings bv means of conference calls was initiated by Members in North America and now
fom]s an international "virtual" community also involving Members in Europe. Australia and New Zealand. This is known as
the Communal Sharing Circle and provides for those Members and Enquirers worldwide who wish to take part in a weekly
service or reading of the Teachings.
Groups meeting by videoconference to read from the Teachings have multiplied and become global in recent years. These
groups are held daily., weekly or fortnightly. A Virtual Area Clerk liaises and Coordinates this unifying development.
Publications
Our main stock of printed books is mainlained at a self_storage facility in Gloucestershire. This is close to. and accessible to,
our Literature Secretary who responds to requests for copies of ihe books and sends them by post. We also have Literature
Secretaries based in North America and Australia who keep stocks of books for distribution in their part of the world.

Periodicals
Althou(Jh based in the United Kingdom, the Order is a felloii'ship of like-minded individua15 dispersed around the globe, some
in locations isolated from the main centres of activity. The periodicals produced by the Order are therefore central to
maintaining the communication links which unifv the Order as a fellowship. There are three periodicals:

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Websile
The company. Salad Creative, of Poole DorseL ￿'aS selected io create a new ￿'ebSite and io provide training so that the
members, Iveb group would be able to manage the da)" to day runninu of it. The development has been a big task with rnany
video meeting5 a5 well as some face-tfrface time with the developinent team. All being well. it is hoped the new site will be
available in early ?025.
The principal purpose of the website is to be a point of contact and reference for The Order of the Cross, and to create an
atmosphere such that anyone visiting the site should leave feeling more uplifted. It is an important part of the brief that the
site is future-proofed as much as possible.
Premises
The Order owned premises in London used pritnarily forthe provision of piiblic worship services until 2012 when the property
was sold. After consultation. the Trustees concluded that due to the geographical dispersion of the active members and the
limitations in the practical support tha( they can give. Ihe in(erests of the membership and the work of the Order were best
served if. for the time being, the Order did not acquire premises. This has released resources so that Members can give greater
support to their local areas and focus on a rich spiritual prooramme of meetinos and gatherings, without the distraction of
managing human and physical resources associated with property ownership.
The Order's literature stock and anj. essential artefacts used for Gatherings are held in conveniently located secure 5elf-5torage.
Artwork and a few special fumishings that could be used for nevi premises are in long tenn storage.
Based on experience since 2012, the Order ha5 continued to be satisfactorily administered without the need for a headquarters
property.
FINAIYCIAL REVIEW
Reserves Policy
A major part of our income is from investments and deposits. Particular attention is given to investing ethically, consistent as
far as p055ible with the Order's Aims and Ideals. We adopt a moderate degree of risk in our investment policy, though our
investment portfolio is on the more volatile side of moderdte as our ethical policy steers us away from large conglomerates
and defensive stocks that are generallv incompatible with our ethical criteria. We seek a balance between income and capital
growth. Approximately l O % of our advised investments are in fixed interest stocks and bonds and the remainder are mainly
in equities. A major part of our equity and bond holdings are in ethicall)" uuided collective funds. Much of the remainder of
our invested funds are in directly held UK shares selected from a list supplied by EIRIS (Ethical Investment Research and
Infom]ation Service) based on our ethical criteria. The selection of collective and listed investments is advised by our
investment manager, Brem'in Dolphin. 80/0 of our total funds are held in the CCLA Property Fund. 1.5 % of our total funds are
held in a high yield bond issued on behalf of a registered housing charity,. The volatility ofthe investment portfolio is countered
by the substantial deposits that provide a defensive capital stability. Subject to prudent limits. our deposits are held with banks
that have ethical policies and with building societies.
Major Risks
The possible risks associated with the Orderfs aciivities are reviewed regularly by the Trustees and where necessary addressed
proportionately.

FINAINCIAL REVIEW
Review ofthe Accounts (l July 2023 to 30 June 2024)
The following coinments are intended lo indicate the main reasons for significant year-on-year changes to income and
expenditure shown in the Statement of Financial Activities included with this Report.
Total incorne was higher compared with the previou5 year due to higher interest rdtes on deposits. There were balance transfer5
from some Areas as they closed their bank accounts and these are recorded as "donations" During the year the charity was
notified of a legacy due from the Estate of ihe late M Walton amounting to £?.578,997. The legacy has been included within
these accounts as it is probable that it will be received post year end.
Resources expended were generally higher than in the previous year, though as usual, expenditure increased in some areas
and reduced in others. Alw'ays our largest item of expenditure is for Gatherings in the UK where 14'e bring together, usually
at a residential retreat centre. members and enquirers for a few days of worship. meditation. study and fellowship. This cost
increased over the previous vear due lo inflation, increased attendance and one extra gathering in April 2023. The second
largest item of expenditure was travel subsidies: these incrvased considerably as we assisted more members to travel between
the UK, USA, Australia and New Zealand to minister and otherwise assist at or attend Gatherings both overseas and in the
UK. As our number of members gradually reduce. our international contacts. virtually and in person, have increased.
Other items of expenditure showing substantial increase were: Trustee and United Councils meetings in person - as our latest
two trustee appointee5 are resident w'ell beyond Southern Enoland ivliere we meet in person, Tnjstee travel costs have risen
substantially - also there was an additional weekend meeting bringing the totsl of such meetings to four in the y&qr- projects
that required additional expenditure were the professional recording of our hymns (the costs are included under "Worship
facilities"),. professional development of our iyebsite Still ongoing at tlie tiine of ivriting to make the H'ebsite more appealing
and infonnative to enquirers, and easier to manage. reprints of our publications that ivere running out of stock. and in October
2023 a donation of £15.000 was gi￿.en to The ,4bbey Sutton Courtena).. a retreat centre that we use for Trustee Ineetings,
which has charitable aims similar to our - the donation was to assist it5 re-establishment after re-opening in 2023.

STRUCTIIRE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Charity constitution
The Order 15 adininistered by a Council of Trustees who have ultimate responsibility for carrying out the work of the Order
and for dealing with its finances. The governing document of the Order is the Declaration of Trust drawn up by the Trustees
of the Order in August 1944. This document incorporates a Leuer concerning the Future Administratioi) of the Order, written
by the Founder in 1942. The charitable purposes of the Order of the Cross are set out in a Supplemental Trust Deed executed
in 1972 prior to registration with the Charity Commission.
The Schedule to the Supplemental Trust Deed reads:
"The priniary purposes of the Order are as folloivs=
( l ) The advancement of the Christian Religion in accordance with the Founderfs vision and interpretation
(2) The holding of regular Services of Public Worship
(3) The gii'ing of instruction in the Christian Religion as interpreted by the Founder to the young and in furtherance of the
aforesaid primary purposes-
(i) The practice of Christian healing by spiritual means
(li) The provision of facilities for and the protnotion of religious conferences and retreats
(iii) The publication of the Works of the Founder and other books and periodicals descriptive of the Work of the Order
(iv) The training of members to act as ministrants for the Order in public worship and in spiritual healing."
Overseas, The Order of the Cross USA is a Reuistered Cortrt)ration, tax exempt, H."hich attends to financial and legal matters
concerning the Order in the USA and works in close cooperation with the Trustees. Our Australia and New Zealand Area
Committee that went through a legal process of incorporation in Australia a few years ago have now closed their non-profit
company due to a lack of Australian members coming fonvard to fill the directorships.
Reeruitment and appointment of new trustees
The Founder's Letter concerning the Future .4dministration of the Order stipulates that the number of Trustee5 continue5 to
be nine, though the Twstees resolved in .4pril 2023 to reduce the number to seven. When a vacancy occurs (normally as the
result of retirement) the coniinuing Trustees. who are all Nlembers of the Order of the Cross, appoint another representative
Member to fill the vacancy. The contraction of the membership and scale of activities in recent years have led us to the view
that seven Trustees are sufficient to encompass tlie Order's administration. We take the vieiv that our goveming document
allows lis the flexibility to vary the number of Truslees who may be appointed.
Responsibilities for the various aspects of the work and administrdtion of the Order are assigned to individual Trustees. The
Trustees keep in touch frequently, partly virtuall), b). videoconference. and partly by in-person ￿'Orking weekends at a retreat
centre or other suitable venue. A time of prayer and meditation is an integral part of every Trustee meeting. The weekend
meetings, held two or three times a year, provide valuable opportunities for extended consideration of the Order's work.
The names of the current Council of Trustees are listed at the start of this report. At the time of writing, there is a vacancy for
one Trustee.

sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going eoncern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees, use of the going concern basis of accounting in the
preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have perfomled. we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions thaL
individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of
at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant section5

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibilitv IS to read the other inforrnation and, in doing 50,
consider Nvheiher the other inforniation is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in

In preparing the financial statements, the twstees are responsible for assessing the charity's ability to continue as a going
concern, disclosing. as applicable. matlers related to going concem and using the going concern basis of accounting unless
the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations. or haTre no realistic alternative but to do so.
Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial sthtements as a whole are free from niaterial
misstatement. whether due to fraud or error. and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance. but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS
(UK) w'ill alwa)'s detect a material miss(atement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered
material if, individlially or in the reuate, the). could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users
taken on the basis of these financial statements.
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below..
We obtained an underslanding of the legal and regulalory frameworks that are applicable to the entity and detennined that the
most significant are those that relate to ihe c.harities Act 2011 and FRS 102.
We assessed the risks of material misstalement in respect of fraud as follo￿'S.. w'e made full enquiries with management and
those charged with govemance. As part of our fraud discussions. ￿'e discussed particular areas ￿'e believed to be susceptible
to misstatement. Also, during our audit, we paid particular attention to looking for any related party transactions.
A ￿rther descrip(ion of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting
Council's website at www.frc.org.uklauditor5respon5ibilities. This description fortns part of our Report of the Independent

PRIOR YEAR ADJUSTMENT
A prior year adjustment was made in respect of listed fixed assets investments, current assets investments, cash at
bank, other debtors and investment income. The prior year adjustments H'ere made to correct the classification of fixed
asset investments that had previously been classified as other debtors and cash at bank, and to correcl the classification
of current asset investments that had previouslv been shown as cash at bank, as the cash was held for investsnent
purposes only, and not for charitable purFK)se5 or for short term cash commitments. This has resulted in fixed a55et
investments increasing by £85.168, current asset investments increasing bj £4,081,819, other debtors decreasing by
£134,551, cash at bank decreasing by £4,031 oJ2, and the nei income being £1,104 higher. Therefore, the restated net
assets are £1,104 higher.
