REPORT for the financial year ended 31 March 2025 The trustees present their Trustees, Report and the unaudited financial slalements for the financial year ended 31 March 2025. The Iruslees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities.. Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 1021 leffeclive 1 January 20191. Mission. Objectives and Strategy Objectives Dear Precious JP Friends. Starting 2025 has been a time to reflect over the Lord's goodnessl He has been $0 visible over these past months. IN the face of such suffering, especially in these precious lives with HIVIAIDS, we have witnessed God's grace transform so many lives. All who come lo us hear the Gospel message and are presented with the choice lo either repent and be saved or to refuse the Gospel be lost. Watching their faces as they come lo realise that Christ died for them is the greatest gift any of us could have this side of glory. One of our young guys, who grew up through the orphanage system. Caudiu has been with us for a while at the day centre and attending camps, he has heard the message many times bul always seemed indifferent and could never get past what scars religion and priests had left on him. Over the Christmas period after he received a Christmas Bag with the Gospel tract inside, he messaged us to say he was really struggling with his sin. A sure sign of the Holy Spirit working in his life. He would write for hours with questions about how lo repent, how to turn from sin and how lo hear God's voice. Truly a work of God's grace in 8 young guy like Claudiu's life. Please pray for him as he has many years of trauma and pain to work through, but we know God is more than able to set the captives free. Praise the Lord!!! Camp 2024 was the biggest turnout we have ever had. Over 70 children and families came away with us and had an amazing time hearing the Word of God preached each day., With times of worship and prayer, and not lo mention the many private conversations that took place during our game times and meals. Many lives were transformed by Gods love and the sense of family that was so evident as we spent days together on the banks of the Danube. Christmas gift bags and Food Hampers was a glorious limel We want lo thank each one of you who has prayed for us, supported us, come and served with us, sent food. clothing, shoes. toys, candy. medicine, snacks. toiletries, and so much more over these last 25 years and especially these past 12 months. We are eternally grateful for all the precious door openers you send so that we can walk into these broken and desperate lives with Christ's hope and love. Nothing holds the door open like prayer and a littie something that says Jesus loves you from so far away. Thank you with all our hearts for helping us reach the least of these! This year God provided over 18,000 gift bags and food hampers that reached children and families in the sickest, poorest and most lonely parts of Romania. Ukraine, our elderly home and the children and families infected with HIVIAIDS. Thank you and please keep praying for each life to receive the precious gospel of Jesus Christ! God is calling out the next generation to take a stand for Christ. One of our young men, Bogdan, who was infected with HIV as a very lilue boy, raised in a broken home with an alcoholic father and rejected by society fell called to attend bible school in Timisoara. After finishing high school last year. He felt he was ready for this next chapter of his life lo begin in Obedien￿ to the Lord. We have known and ministered to Bogdan for many years now and are so excited lo see what the Lord will do in the future. Here is a short message from Bogdan below. "I want to thank you for being by my side and supporting me on my journey to know God and to learn how to speak about Him to others. I try to be an example. to share His Word with the world. and lo be a light to those around me. It's not always easy, but with God. all things are possible. Thank you for supporting me in going and staying in Timisoara for my studies. Thank you for your help. Brie￿Y, here's how I came to wanl to attend this school.. God spoke to rne and said, "You will be a pastor, and you will speak to the world. I will use you to bTtng light to the lost, just as you once were.. At first. I didn't believe it and didn't expect il because I didn't see anything valuable in myself. bul God saw it, even from the beginning. I came lo speak in front of people. set aside all fear. and let God use me for a greater plan. for His glory. Thank you for your support of the Joshua Project. Bogdan" Now, more than ever before. we need YOUR HELP. To increa59 our Feeding Programs and Day Center minislTTes, we need an additional £4000 a month.
