Trustees. Report
For the year ended 31 December 2025
The Trustees present their annual report and financlal statements for the year ended 31 December 2025.
Introdurtlon
The Free Presbyterian Church of Ulster came Into being on 17th March 1951 as a testimony to the hlstoric
faith of Presbyterians that emphasised the inspiratiork and authority of Scripture against the liberal,
rationalist infidelity that had made serious inroads Into Presbyterlanism in Ireland as well as the other main
Protestant denominations.
The Free Presbyterlan Church of Ulster Is a worldwide Protestant Refomied denomlnation consisting of
congregations which accept and uphold the Articles of Faith. It is Protestant in its basls, Presbyterian in its
govemment, Reformed in its doctrine, Evangelistic in its ministry. Fundamentalist In its stand and defence of
the Historlc Christian Faith, and subject only to the Lord Jesu5 Christ as the Great King and only Head of The
Church. The Word of God, as contained in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testsments, is its only rule of
faith and practice.
Artlcles of Falth
The Absolute Authority and Verbal Dlvlne Inspiratlon of the Old and New Testaments as the Word of God-
There Is but one Ilvlng and true God, and in the Godhead there are Three Persons, equal in power and glory
God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost:
The Eternal Son5hip. Vlrgin Birth and Deity of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ;
The personality of God the Holy Spirit. and the absolute necessity of Hi5 work in Regeneration and
Sanctlflcation. and His infilling of the indwelt Believer for power to live and wltness for Chrlst;
The Substitutionary death of the Lord Jesus Chrlst ènd His Resurrection as the only way of Salvatlon from sln
through Faith,.
God has appointed besides the Word and Prayer the Sacraments of Baptism and the Lord's Supper:
Baptism. The Free Presbyterian Church of Ulster, under Christ the great King and Head of the Church, realises
that bltter controversy raging around the ordinance of Christian Baptism has divlded the Bodyof Christ, when
that Body should have been unlted in Christian love and Holy Ghost power to Stem the onslaughts and hell-
Inspired assaults of modemism. hereby affimis that each member of the Free Presbyterian Church of Ulster
Shall have liberty to detide for themselves which course to adopt, each member giving due honour in love to
the views held by differing brethren. but none espousing the error of baptlsmal regeneration,.
The Lord's Supper. The Lord's Supper has been appointed by our Lord for Remembrance of Him In Hi5 work
as Saviour. Its purpose to the chlld of Go(1 Is for St￿ngthenin& and the putting of a visible difference between
the redeemed and the unregenerate. This Sacrament will be observed once each month in every Free
Presbyterian Congregation, or more, or le55 frequently as each local congregation
shall decide,- and
The visible and personal return of OLFr Lord Jesus Christ.
These Articles of Faith, together wvth the Larger and Shorter Catechlsm5, and the Westminster Standards
form the Subordlnate Standards of the Free Presbyterian Church of Ulster.
Purpose
The Objertive of the Church Is to promote the advancement of religion In accordance with the Holy
Scriptures, the suljordinate stsndards of the Articles of Faith. the Westminster Standards, and the Book of
Church Order.
