The Assembly Council comprises of the leaders of the Assembly whose names are recorded in the Assembly Records. Trustees must first be members of the Assembly to be eligible for appointment as trustees. Trustees are appointed by the Assembly Council in accordance with the governing document. 

**Induction and training of new trustees:** Induction and training of new trustees is carried out by existing trustees as necessary to enable new trustees to effectively perform their duties. 

**Organisational structure:** The main office bearers of the charity are the Chairman, Secretary and Treasurer who are members of the Assembly Council. The Senior Pastor is usually the Chairman and is responsible for ensuring that the daily activities of the charity are in accordance with the charity objectives, with salaried staff and unpaid volunteers reporting to him. 

**Risk Management:** The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. It is considered by the Trustees that there is no foreseeable risk where “Life Church” is exposed. The trustees have reviewed the principal risks facing the charity and have established systems and procedures to mitigate those risks. The key risks relate to financial sustainability, property development, health and safety and safeguarding. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

## **As set out in the constitution;** 

The advancement of the Christian faith in accordance with the statement of faith of the Assemblies of God, as approved by the General Council of the Assemblies of God. This is carried out in various parts of the United Kingdom and internationally, as deemed appropriate by the Assembly Council. 

The relief of sickness and financial hardship, along with the promotion and preservation of good health. This is achieved through the provision of funds, goods, or services, including counselling and support, in regions as determined by the Assembly Council. Additionally, the advancement of education is supported in similar ways and regions as considered appropriate. 

The pursuit of other charitable purposes that further the attainment of the above objectives or any of them. 

During the year, the Charity carried out the following significant activities in pursuit of its objectives: 

- The provision of weekly worship services, offering spiritual guidance and fellowship to the congregation. 

- Sunday school programmes aimed at nurturing the Christian faith among children and young people. 

- Home groups to promote deeper study of the Christian faith and foster community support. 

- Pastoral services to provide spiritual care and practical assistance to those in need. 

4 



**Life Church** 

- Local outreaches to engage with the wider community and support vulnerable individuals. 

- Youth work initiatives to encourage and mentor young people in their faith journey. 

- The support of missionary work, both locally and overseas, to advance the Christian faith and provide humanitarian aid. 

- The provision of community facilities to local groups, promoting social inclusion and community development. 

These activities align with the Charity’s commitment to advancing the Christian faith, supporting those in need, and fostering a sense of community within the local area and beyond. 

**Volunteers:** Many of the charity’s activities are carried out by unpaid volunteers. The Trustees would like to thank all volunteers for their invaluable contribution to the life of the charity. The Trustees acknowledge that service to the public benefit would not be possible without these volunteers. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

**Fundraising activities:** The charity engages in fundraising for specific charitable projects as they arise. In October 2025, the charity was awarded £100,000 from Renfrewshire Council’s Sustainable Communities Fund to support roof repairs at “The Lighthouse” building. 

**Internal and external facilities:** There are no other internal or external factors affecting the performance of the charity. 

## **Financial Review** 

## **General review:** 

Total incoming resources for the year amounted to £132,503 (2024: £141,827). The principal source of income continued to be voluntary donations and offerings from members of the congregation, together with Gift Aid recovered from HMRC. Smaller amounts of income were also received from room hire and bank interest. 

Total expenditure for the year amounted to £143,167 (2024: £163,315). Expenditure relates primarily to the ongoing ministry and operational costs of the church, including staffing costs, mission support, building running costs and loan interest associated with the church premises. 

As a result, the charity recorded a net deficit for the year of £13,899 (2024: deficit £21,488). The trustees recognise that expenditure exceeded income during the year and continue to monitor costs carefully while seeking to maintain the church’s ministry and outreach activities. 

At the balance sheet date the charity held total funds of £277,931 (2024: £287,248). These comprise unrestricted funds of £253,273, which are available for the general purposes of the charity, and restricted funds of £24,658, which are held for specific purposes including the development and improvement of the church premises. 

5 



## **Life Church** 

The charity continues to carry a long-term loan associated with the purchase of the church building, and interest payments on this loan represent a significant element of annual expenditure. The trustees remain committed to managing this liability prudently while continuing the development and use of the church property for ministry and community purposes. 

Cash balances at the year end remained adequate to support the ongoing activities of the charity and to meet its financial commitments. 

The Trustees are satisfied that the Church remains in a sound financial position. The continued support from the congregation and careful management of resources will enable the Church to fulfil its charitable purposes in the coming year. 

## **The financial effect of significant events:** None 

**Investment policy & objectives set:** Objectives for the next financial year are to continue to grow the charity by continuing to engage with volunteers, the community by community events and maintenance of the charity’s assets. Also to relocate all operations to the new venue. The charity invests funds that are excess of short term operational requirements in order to obtain a satisfactory and safe return. 

**Charities Policy on Reserves:** The unrestricted funds represent income earned but not yet utilised in supporting charitable activities. At the 30[th] September 2024, the charity held £154,623 in cash which includes cash proceeds of the building previous owned by the charity. However, the Reserves policy of the charity is that that cash reserves to be held that would cover the value of three months’ worth of running expenses of the charity. The reserves policy is reviewed by the Trustees on a regular basis throughout the year. 

**Restricted funds:** Restricted funds normally relate to short term projects where income is restricted, received and expended within the financial year. Most restricted funds are allocated for building renovations. 

**Funds in deficit:** The long term loan was to partly finance the purchase of the new building at 6-8 High Street, Paisley. The balance of the loan at the end of the financial year after repayments and interest charged was £223,718 

**Principle Funding sources:** The principle funding source of income is from the offerings of the members of “Life Church”. 

**Going Concern:** The trustees have reviewed the charity’s financial position and are satisfied that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis. 

**Statement of disclosure of the Independent Examination:** In so far as the Trustees are aware at the time of approving our Trustee’s annual report, there is no relevant information, being information needed by the Independent Examiner in connection with preparing their report, of which the Independent Examiner is unaware.

## **Life Church** 

## **Future Plans** 

The charity plans to continue to develop its activities in accordance with its objectives. 

The Church is planning to renovate the new building at 6-8 High Street, Paisley in stages; the first stage being refurbishing the ground floor as a place of worship. In the interim, the church is currently renting another premises in Paisley. Despite the change of premises, the Church continues to function with its significant activities. 

**Factors likely to affect financial performance or position going forward:** The most significant factors will be the cost of renovations. Currently, the church is awaiting significant funding approvals to enable the commencement of major renovation works on the Lighthouse property. In the interim, there is a plan to make the ground floor useable as a place of worship. 

The Trustees believe that this report is a fair, balanced and an understandable review of the charity’s structure, legal purposes, objectives and activities, financial performance & financial position. 

Approved by order of the board of trustees, and signed on its behalf by:

**Life Church** 

## **Independent Examiner’s Report For the Financial Period ended on 30[th] September 2025** 

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 30[th] September 2025 which are set out on pages 9 to 19. 

## **Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Auditors** 

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) 2005 Act and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. The charity trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1) (a) to (c) of the Accounts Regulations does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under section 44(1) (c) of the Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of audit opinion** 

My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. 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 seeks explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and, consequently, I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts. 

## **Independent Examiner’s statement** 

In the course of 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 44(1) (a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations, and 

- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with Regulation 8 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations 

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.
