Citadel Ministries Trustee’s annual report
The ministry has con/nued to func/on efficiently and effec/vely over the last year even with the restric/ons imposed by na/onal covid19 isola/on rules on local and interna/onal travel.
The necessi/es to find other ways to achieve the charity’s aims have resulted in the key innova/on of this year: the establishing of weekly webinars.
This method of communica/ng the gospel has clearly been effec/ve for this ministry. We believe it has laid the founda/ons for Citadel Ministries to minister into areas of the world and to people groups not previously reached by this charity.
An advancement for the webinars was men/oned due to the possibility of having a plaForm powered by ar/ficial intelligence that is being tested, which will offer speech to text or even voice. This however is not yet perfected
During this /me too we have agreed to provide non-governmental support to a missionary in Madagascar, Rachel Jane Wallace. She previously worked with backing from Iris ministries. However, when working with Iris was no longer viable Citadel Ministries agreed to provide nongovernmental oversight and pastoral care.
Following many obstacles we are now the NGO sponsor for Rachel J Wallace in Madagascar and are financially suppor/ng her on a slowly increasing basis
Citadel Ministries - UK Company Number: 02470082 | Registered Office: 41 Parsonage Road, Horsham, West Sussex, RH12 4AW : Registered Charity No 802969 in England and Wales UK
We will be providing small simple homes for widows in her area, as well as suppor/ng her in figh/ng sex trafficking of young boys and girls and providing a safe environment for them to grow in
Rachel is looking a_er orphans as well as providing a weekly feeding programme for the hungry children in her town
This transfer has been supported with all the necessary documenta/on and has resulted with Rachel receiving Madagascan governmental approval for the change.
A good year even under trying circumstances and a real sense of excitement for the future both in Madagascar and around the world

Company Law requires Directors to prepare Financial Statements for each financial year.

The Financial Statements are required by law to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and of the profit or loss of the Company for that period. In preparing these Financial Statements, Directors are required to:
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the Financial Statements;
prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.

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.

In accordance with the terms of my engagement and in order to assist you to fulfil your duties under the Companies Act 2006, I have compiled the Financial Statements of the Company comprising Balance Sheet and Income and Expenditure Account and the related notes from the accounting records and information and explanations that you have given to me.
This report is made solely to the Company's Board of Directors, as a body, in accordance with the terms of my engagement. My work has been undertaken so that I might compile the financial statements that I have been engaged to compile, report to the Company's Board of Directors that I have done so, and state those matters that I have agreed to state to them in this 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 Company and the Company's Board of Directors, as a body, for my work or for this report.
I have carried out this engagement in accordance with technical guidance issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales and have complied with the ethical guidance laid down by the Institute relating to members undertaking the compilation of financial statements.
You have acknowledged on the Balance Sheet as at 31 March 2023 your duty to ensure that the Company has kept proper accounting records and to prepare Financial Statements that give a true and fair view under the Companies Act 2006. You consider that the Company is exempt from the statutory requirement for an audit for the year.
I have not been instructed to carry out an audit of the Financial Statements. For this reason, I have not verified the accuracy of the completeness of the accounting records or information and explanations you have given me, and I do not, therefore, express any opinion on the Financial Statements.
