Henri's Evangelical Revival Association Limited - Report of Directors
The Directors present their annual report with the accounts of the company for the year ended 31[st] October 2021.
Administrative Details
The company was incorporated in December 1964 and registered as a charity in October 1976. As a company, limited by guarantee, it is governed by its memorandum and articles of association. Henri's Revivals, Glory Office, The Glory People and African Street Kids Orphanage Foundation (‘ASK-OF’ for short) are the working names used by this company.
The banking for the company is operated through HSBC bank at 33 Town Square Basildon SS14 1BA.
Day to day management of the Associations activities during 2021 and projected into 2022 have been delegated by the board of Directors, to the Company Secretary and Director Alan C. Churchill. The management of the finances and related reporting is delegated to the Treasurer, Andrew Churchill.
Structural Governance and Management
Historically the Directors have always been drawn from the active senior leadership of the association's evangelical outreach and continue to be spread countrywide to broaden the involvement of the association. Currently recruitment of new directors (trustees) is not considered necessary, as the current six give a broad spread of countrywide coverage and background.
Any future directors will be nominated and elected by the existing directors from those most involved with the Christian aims of our countrywide outreach.
The current six directors of the company are shown below.

Henri's Evangelical Revival Association Limited Report of Directors (continued)
Currently our activities in the fulfilment of these objects are mainly focused on the following.
1 Countrywide evangelical revival meetings at churches and halls to reach new people and maintain a lively Christian experience for all our supporting groupings and contacts.
2 To hold four 2 to 4 day Conventions, with Daily Revival Meetings and Seminars to bless and maintain the Christian Faith of all attending. Including healing for the sick.
3 To produce and distribute 500 eight page news magazine to report and bring testimony of God's blessing in the fellowships life. Also to produce and distribute an online newsletter by email regularly.
4 To maintain an office with 24 hour online prayer and support for the fellowship and to produce and distribute the following.
Christian books
CD’s of Christian music
Websites, Podcast library, Facebook, and on line Video Streaming using Vimeo to provide access to all our video material
-
5 To support both church and home fellowships both in the UK and abroad.
-
6 To support and maintain a Children’s Orphanage in Accra Ghana
Achievements in 2021
We were able to produce one news magazine in the spring of 2021 the cost of postage and printing for this was £322.38. We plan to continue to produce 500 copies of a printed magazine twice a year mailing around 250 using the rest for handing out at our conventions and other events.
The Covid lockdown has resulted in us having to use Zoom for all our gatherings. We have been having three online meetings each week, Sunday fellowship, Wednesday Bible study and Friday prayer meeting. This has enabled us to have people from all over the UK and other nations join us, we’ve had people from Africa and America preach online at these gatherings. We have also recorded and edited the meetings and then made them available on Vimeo. Those not able to join us live, are using these recordings to catch up with our fellowship meetings. Not all of our group have been joining us on line either because of not having the skill or hardware to do so but we believe at least 100 people our following us regularly and we are all thankful for this regular fellowship.
At the end October this year we were able to hold our first convention in person since New Year 2019.
The Prayer web activity still functions by email to our 50 prayer partners automatically when a prayer is requested and sent. This has been very useful during the lockdown restrictions as a means of focus of the needs of the fellowship in this trying time.
We have also been able to add our substantial video and DVD library to our Vimeo account which has been greatly appreciated, as regular fellowship has not been available during the lockdown.

Summing up the Benefits of our Activities in 2021
We believe as a relatively small group of volunteers we have given value for money using the funding provided by donations, in an effective and efficient way.
That our mission to provide help and support for the general community through our Christian Association we believe justifies our status as a Christian charity.
All the finance we receive is used to achieve the aim of being a useful contact point for all and to bring health and contentment to those who are in need of our help. This function has been essential during the Covid lockdown for people isolated by the rules.
In the last year we have found that the prayer site has had an impact in reaching out to people who found out about us as a prayer contact via internet search engines.
In November 2008 the fellowship became aware of the need of the homeless children living rough at night in the Accra Ghana bus station. Collectively it was decided that we should seek to start an orphanage as part of our contact church there, the New Wave Revival Mission. Bishop James our associate in Ghana started an official organisation based in Ghana called the African Street Kid Foundation (ASK OF). Through financial support from the UK in 2011 we managed to fund the purchase of a house with a large compound and now have a permanent place for the 16 children there.
The total financial support we have given to the orphanage during the year ending is 31[st] October 2021 was £25,604.00.This is almost double our normal donations to help maintain the orphanage and schooling. This was necessary because of the Covid emergency. The extra funds were generated by emergency gifts from our generous supporters.
Main Objectives for 2022
-
Reach and bless more people through both new meeting venues and advertising (via social media)
-
Introduce more people to our fellowship by producing and developing our online magazine.
-
Continue to put recordings of our meetings on the internet to increase and spread the take up of our message from our meetings and seminars.
-
Support other churches in their local Christian outreach and take Church to the people on the street.
-
Encourage the fellowship to support church plantings world-wide
-
Continue to develop the new Zoom meeting tools online
-
Continue to fund, develop and sponsor the orphanage in Accra to meet the needs of African street children there.
-
Continue to develop the two websites and the smart phone app with the new technical features.
Strategies to achieve Objectives for 2022
-
To open up the fellowship by use of social media and improve the impact and content of our web sites and magazine.
-
Develop the Zoom content in our meetings and encourage a growth in the fellowship through meetings and conventions.
-
Reach new groups and individuals, with new church venues for outreach meetings.
-
Develop the interaction amongst the fellowship via social media, the web site and mobile phone texting rather than by letters as we have historically done.
-
Continue our encouragement to individuals, churches and to support the financing of the church planting in Accra Ghana.
-
Encourage fundraising for the African outreaches, to promote sponsorship from individuals both outside of and within their fellowship.
-
Encourage greater involvement within the fellowship to help achieve these objectives.

Strategies to achieve Objectives for 2022 continued
Funding
The achievement of objectives and strategies for 2022 is dependent on the availability of finance. Historically the association has never directly fundraised to maintain the association, because we believe our objectives can be best achieved by offerings dedicated to God from within our fellowship.
Our funding comes mainly from free will offerings and love gifts from meetings and one off love gifts for identified projects. We also receive funds by post as a result of the sales of our products books, CD's, and love gifts for the Glory News magazine. Although the pandemic has impacted on our funding, the funding of our core activities is still sound.
We are also supported with regular love gifts from churches associated with us and individuals via gift aid. None of the Directors are paid for their services, all administration support is voluntary.
On 12 October 2008 a director of the association, Henri's wife, Connie Staples died, leaving a legacy to the association in the form of an investment bond. This bond valued at £90,445 was transferred to the association at the end of 2009. During this financial period, £6,000.00 has been drawn from the fund to support the activities of Henri’s. Its value on 31st October 2021 was £56,109.55.
In November 2021 the Company received £34,908.23 from the sale of a church in Newark. The church has been associated with Henri’s Revivals for many years, and whilst not owned by Henri’s, the terms of the original purchase was that if sold, Henri’s would receive 50% of the net proceeds. These funds will support the plans of Henri’s for a number of years.
Current Financial Status
We expect that an income from offerings, gifts and multimedia sales in the next year will increase from, this current years as we anticipate we will be able to hold conventions throughout the year. The recent receipt from the sale of a church will enable us to support the activities of Henri’s into 2022 and beyond.
The current financial status is healthy at the year-end in October 2021 with £3,673.00 in the current account plus the value of the Investment Bond We intend to use the proceeds from the sale of the church to fund activities for the next 2 years, repay the loan and will invest the balance of these funds into the investment bond.
During the last year we have financed the day to day cost of the orphanage by monthly donations specifically for the expenses of feeding, clothing, healthcare, education and staff. From these donations we have been able to transfer more than £1,000 a month to cover these expenses. On 31[st] October 2021 there is a balance of £236.73 for this purpose.
In addition to the above and to support the orphanage during the pandemic we have been able to, on an emergency basis, send extra money to help with the effects of the Covid pandemic amounting to a further total of £13,400. We will need to continue this until the pandemic is under control there. At the 31[st] October there is a balance of £4,268.75 for this purpose.
Financial Review
It is the policy of the charity to spend its resources only in pursuit of its charitable objects as far as possible. At the year-end date £65,528.75 was held in reserves. This equates to more than 12 months expenditure, and is considered adequate for current activities to continue.

-
-Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently:

-
-prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and to enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
SMALL COMPANY RULES

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Henri's Evangelical Revival Association Limited
I report on the accounts of the company for the year ended 31[st] October 2021, which are set out on pages 6 to 10.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The 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. The charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
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
-
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:
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities
have not been met; or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
