Objectives and Activities
POLICIES AND OBJECTIVES
The Trust's primary objective is to promote Christian faith by working in partnership with local churches and their leadership, and with Christian organisations and their leadership, and with individual believers and seekers to enhance and facilitate the primary objective. This may occur at local, national or international levels and across all denominational boundaries.
It does so by continuing to support and facilitate the ministries of Steve & Sue Rayment as they serve the overarching purpose of promoting Christian faith in various contexts.
ACTIVITIES FOR ACHIEVING OBJECTIVES
A variety of activities are employed in the pursuit of the above objectives in the realm of prayer, teaching, and prophetic resource and support for individuals and churches. This may take the form of ministry and teaching on Sundays in local churches, conferences, teaching series, training & teaching days, seminars, mentoring, spiritual direction, retreats and personal counselling.
Achievements and
performance GOING
CONCERN
After making appropriate enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate
resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt
the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES
The work of the Trust has grown much over this last year, with many more opportunities, even calls from people to help and ‘walk alongside’ them.
Really, that is what Steve does - walk alongside individuals, couples, families, ministries, organisations seeking to help them connect with, and know more of Father God’s presence, purpose and will for their lives.
This Walking or being ‘Alongside’ continues to find its expression in familiar places to Steve, such as Top Barn Trust (Worcestershire), The House of Bread (Warwickshire) with also a return for this period to being involved with World Prayer Centre and a little with ‘friends from the Black Country NET.’ Additional to these, there has been a large increase in meetings with couples and individuals in relation to marriage / work / relational crisis, or just needing a friend alongside with some spiritual insight, understanding, encouragement and advice. The majority of these situations have called for an ongoing ‘journey,’ where they ‘set the pace,’ but always in order to move forward in God’s grace and blessing upon their lives. This has led to a much greater need to communicate with, as well as travelling to many more meetings. This development is what Steve called ‘an explosion in the growth of the ministry,’ seemed to coincide with a profound personal revelation / awareness that the call upon his life is to walk ‘Alongside people for God’s glory.’
As a way of giving a number of different ‘windows’ into this year, it seemed good to invite two Charities, an individual and a couple / family to each write a brief note on how they saw that having Steve alongside had enabled, enriched, and encouraged their lives and ministry. (These are included, exactly as they were first submitted)
1) The House of Bread (Warwickshire. Charity Reg No. 1039041) Directors - Will & Ann Neale .
We are directors of a non-profit organisation with charity status, called The House of Bread – a Christian retreat and conference centre in Warwickshire. The House of Bread offers day and residential accommodation to individual guests, church groups and various organisations and charities. We also offer a programme of
events, including retreats and teaching days. Each year we welcome between 3000 and 4000 guests. The House of Bread is overseen by a leadership team of directors and trustees, and is supported by a small team of paid staff and a large team of volunteers.
Steve Rayment has been working in a voluntary capacity alongside the leadership team at The House of Bread over several years. Steve has been highly valued, and continues to be highly valued by all the leadership team for many reasons. Through his personality, faith in God, commitment and nurture, we have experienced a transforming impact on the leadership team. We have seen the team flourish at many levels - the honesty, trust and unity between the team members has grown to a deeper level. And with the wisdom, Biblical knowledge and understanding, experience, spiritual insights and gifts that Steve brings to the team, he has played a vital, strategic role in bringing focus, direction and vision to The House of Bread.
TRUSTEES' REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2021
We are truly thankful to know Steve and for his steadfastness and care in supporting, challenging and guiding us as a team. Additionally, we are thankful for Steve walking alongside us on our own personal spiritual journeys. Steve has a deep, genuine care and commitment to everyone he walks alongside. Through his listening and guidance, and through being there for us in the challenges and trials of life, as well as the joys and celebrations, we have been greatly encouraged and strengthened as individuals, as a married couple and parents, as well as leaders – all having an impact on the roles and responsibilities we have in our lives.
2) David (Chairman) & Di Harper - Top Barn Trust,
For many years now Steve Rayment has walked alongside us in our little ministry, offering support and encouragement and a great deal of spiritual wisdom. More recently, as the ministry has grown and there have been increasingly important decisions to make, Steve has guided us through, and we have felt very grateful to have him with us.
Our work is in two parts: firstly The Top Barn Trust, which over the last three years has been granted land on which the social enterprise projects are based. There are four projects which all work with adults or children who are vulnerable or in need, and they provide rural therapy. The projects have been granted leases on the land which has been a real spur to their progress, and each of them is gaining an increased measure of independence and security. We have also developed a Men's Shed and an area known as 'The Green', which is a community place where people can come to do activities which are geared to offset the problems of loneliness. All this the Top Barn Trust has done, together with Steve, who has been a guiding voice alongside our trustees.
Secondly, in the area of ministry Steve has helped to develop men's work, with breakfast meetings where he has encouraged discussion which has brought a real openness and transparency into the ministry. As we move into the next phase of our work Steve's steering hand is really appreciated. Whether in individual ministry or the corporate planning, Steve's understanding of the Father's heart guides us, and we are very grateful to you as Trustees of the New Day Ministries for the opportunity to have Steve Rayment amongst us.
3) Adrian Lowe, has been a leader within the Black Country NET for many years, as well as leading the team of staff in a large Church. He has recently been moving increasingly into wider ministry. As he considered the objectives of the Trust, Adrian writes:
1: TO SUPPORT AND WORK WITH CHRISTIAN CHURCHES, CHRISTIAN ORGANISATIONS AND INDIVIDUALS FOR THE FURTHERANCE OF CHRISTIAN FAITH, PARTICULARLY FOR THE SPIRITUAL AND SOCIAL WELFARE OF ALL THE ABOVE.
TRUSTEES' REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2021
I have worked alongside Steve for approximately 10 years as part of Love Dudley and Love Black Country – City/Town and Regional Christian faith networks that seek to harness the benefits of collective
and collaborative working. During this period Steve has been an invaluable support to the Network’s. He has performed the role of spiritual adviser and director.
-
Enabling and facilitating periods of reflection, helping our Core Team to rethink our priorities.
-
Challenged teams to consider their priorities and help them re-establish clearer and more faithful core actions
-
Offered wise guidance and counsel to individuals in the team
2: TO ENCOURAGE THE CHURCH IN NETWORKING WITH OTHER
ORGANISATIONS FOR THE REGENERATION AND TRANSFORMATION OF THEIR COMMUNITIES.
Steve’s network of connections has provided us within the Regional and City/Town Networks of the Midlands with opportunities to access training and development in partnership with other organisations;
-
He has encouraged our networks connection with The Sentinel Group, a partner organisation in America that champions community transformation.
-
He has recently engaged our network with a Wholeness in Marriage course aimed at helping couples in difficulty with their marriages.
-
He acts as a trustee for some organisations that aim to build community capital and an advisor to others, including our own.
3: TO MENTOR LEADERS WHO ARE THEMSELVES ENGAGED IN SUCH
PURSUITS.
Steve performs a number of roles within the context of leadership with whom he has is relationally connected.
- Abbot/Spiritual director – I personally recognise Steve’s strength as a spiritual director. His ability to help you reflect and consider your own personal
direction and its impact on those you lead has been invaluable. He offers this role to many people.
• Strategic advice and guidance – Steve’s ‘forward sight’ is of huge value to me and the networks I am involved with. It’s impartial and non-controlling. • Imagining the future – Steve has a gift to help people imagine a different future, personally and corporately.
4) Peter Read, Worcester.
Our walk with Steve
Over that past 12 months Steve has come alongside my family as counsellor and has become our good and trusted friend. His ability to be transparent and open himself has encouraged utmost trust and willingness for us to do the same. His gentle and patient manner sits well with his authoritative life experience, which he applies with great sensitivity and humility. I know with certainty that Steve’s help for our son, who has suffered the trauma of marital breakdown, has been immense. Despite this trauma our son has grown in spiritual maturity and stature while holding an amazingly peaceful countenance. This has been in no small measure down to Steve’s selfless commitment to serve without resource to

counting the cost to himself in terms of time and energy. I would commend Steve to anyone needing a dependable friend, guide and companion along the twists and turns of life’s journey.
