REPORT OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2025
We are pleased to present the annual report and the financial statements for the year ended 31st March 2025.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in notes to the accounts and comply with the Charity’s Constitution and the Recommendations of the Statements of Recommended Practice, Accounting and Reporting by Charities and comply with the applicable law.
BOARD OF TRUSTEES
OBJECTIVES OF THE CHARITY, PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES AND ORGANISATION OF OUR WORK
The Redeemed Christian Church of God, Crown of Glory, Glasgow, is a parish of “Redeemed Christian Church of God” which has Parishes all over the world. We are registered with the Office of Scottish Charity Regulator and we are governed by the Charities Act 1993.
We have laid out RCCG Crown of Glory Glasgow objectives under six themes:
-
To teach the gospel of Jesus Christ in a practical way through sharing the word of God and life based on Christian values.
-
As a ministry, we also focus on the practicalities of the Christian life through our different community work, and world mission that we are involved in; to practise love, and to empower people with the knowledge of God and what they can achieve through Him.
-
Organise children and youth activities to promote unity in the course of developing deeper spiritual growth.
-
To encourage a prayerful life and consistency in the devotional life and spiritual growth of our members.
-
To work in cooperation with other Christian organisations and support events to
-
advance the Christian values.
-
We are also passionate about liaison and co-operation with parishes within the RCCG and Pentecostal Christian churches in Scotland to spread the gospel of Christ.
WORSHIP VENUE
The main church venue and place of worship is at Scout Hall, 76 Kelbourne Street Glasgow G20 8PR where majority of church activities are held as physical events. Some church activities like mid-week prayer and bible study sessions, pastoral meetings take place virtually via Zoom conference calls. The Teen and Pre-Teen Children church held within the same premises run weekly Sunday service.
DEVELOPMENT, ACTIVITIES AND ACHIEVEMENT THIS YEAR
The church activities and planned development for the year were focused on continuing the pursuit of the objective of furthering the Christian faith through prayer and support of members during weekly Sunday service, prayer session and bible study.
Designated events that took place during the year covered by the report include:
-
Children dedications – special prayer event during Sunday service for every infant on their first attendance to church after birth.
-
Mothers’ and Fathers’ day celebration – Sunday worship service dedicated to commemorate parents and adults who are to be prospective parents.
-
Annual Summer Barbecue – a social event that is open to all church members, their families and friends for the purpose of evangelism
-
Glorious Praise Annual Music event– a yearly Christian musical event towards evangelism through praise and worship
-
Children and Teenagers Summer Outing – a social event that is open to all children and teenage church members, and friends for the purpose of evangelism. This year they visited Loch Lomond.
-
Couple’s Hangout – a program specifically designed for couples within the church to celebrate love, learn from each other and share tips and advice on building godly home and marriages.
-
Workers’ appreciation and End of Year get together – a social event in appreciation of all the volunteers who support the smooth running of the church activities and programs.
-
Crossover service 2024/2025 – special service to usher in the New Year.
The strong presence of the church in the community with regularly religious activities has attracted gradual but steady increase in number of members.
The Board of Trustees consider the performance of the charity as good and commendable in achieving its goals for the year featured in this report.
FUTURE DEVELOPMENT
The charity aims to continue to expand Community based programmes on evangelism and Christian outreach activities, including regular planned scheduled visits to local Care homes.
FINANCIAL RESULTS OF THE YEAR
The statement of the financial activities shows income of £44,531 and expenditure of £27,570 The excess of income over expenditure for the year is £16,961.
RISK MANAGEMENT
The Board of Trustees constantly reviews the major risks, which the charity faces on regular basis, has examined the major strategic, business and operational risks which the charity faces and confirms that adequate systems have been established to report and take the necessary steps to reduce any risks identified. The significant risk this year remains ensuring that there is adequate space within the current place of worship with the increasing number of attendees.
The need to be proactive about securing accommodation that would allow for the stratification of worshippers for the regular Sunday services according to core age groups to enable effective participation and growth in their Christian journey is identified.
VOLUNTEERS/WORKERS
The church workers are mainly Volunteers who offer their services free of charge on part time basis and mostly in the evenings as well as during the weekends. These workers are the ones in charge of the various departments and ministries that are functioning within the church. Many more volunteers are still giving up their time to help with church programmes and activities on ad-hoc basis. We remain greatly indebted to these volunteers for their commitment and support.

Independent Examiners Report Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Redeemed Christian Church of God Crown of Glory (SC049570) I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 Mar 2025 which are set out on the pages attached. Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. The charity trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10{1) (a) to (c) of the 2006 Accounts Regulations does not apply. It is my responsibilty 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 independent examiners statement My examination is carried out in accordan with Regulation 11 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations. 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 view given by 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 . 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.
