Mission, Objectives and Strategy
 
Mission Statement

Our Vision

Crown Jesus Ministries was birthed in May 1999 with an all Ireland 32 county vision, ‘to see the people of Ireland crown Jesus Lord of their lives’. Their aim is to communicate Jesus in a relevant way through teams of staff and volunteers active in children’s, youth, SEN, student, adult and media ministries. These teams deliver across Ireland and beyond in both a digital and physical way. The strategy is to not only be active in evangelism but to identify, raise up and equip evangelists across Ireland and to serve the local church in evangelism and training. Our reach may extend beyond the island but only if it adds value to our vision on it.

The ministry’s HQ is based in Belfast, they have offices in Dublin and work out of their mission centres, Hope Monaghan in Co Monaghan and Hope Chapel Lane in Belfast City Centre.

Strategy

Our Activities

To achieve our vision, the ministry delivers a variety of programmes and events and provides training and resources, some of which are detailed below.

Klass Kids

The children’s department delivers bible-based programmes in schools and churches to primary school aged children. They visit schools (including SEN) to take school assemblies, teach RE classes or run afterschool clubs and visit church GB/BB groups, Sunday schools and participate in church services. Using puppets alongside creative digital media and storytelling, the team reaches thousands of children each year.

Crown Jesus Youth

The youth department partners with Christian school teachers and youth leaders to deliver programmes that are culturally relevant and bible-based. 1Way is an initiative for post-primary schools that seeks to engage the whole school through a series of special events and classroom workshops leading to an evening outreach event. Additionally, curriculum based RE classes can be delivered in-person or through resources on CJMedia. HUB is an event run tri-annually for church youth groups to come together and connect through worship, teaching and ministry. The team also deliver evangelism training.

Adult Evangelism

The adult department works alongside churches to support, train, and equip in evangelism. This ranges from partner church projects with an individual church or a group of churches, to delivering evangelism training in-person or online, to helping churches develop missional strategies. Our County-wide initiatives focus on resourcing every home and school with a message of Hope (physical and digital), supported by prayer gatherings, free training for churches and local outreach events for kids, youth and adults. The School of Evangelism provides teaching and training for groups and individuals delivered in-person and online. A network of evangelists from across Ireland is building and they meet for teaching and fellowship at the annual Evangelist’s Gathering.

Academy

The Crown Jesus Academy is a year out programme that provides opportunities to serve, learn and grow. Students can choose from four streams; Engage (Kids, Youth & Schools Ministry), Reach (Adult Evangelism & Prayer), Create (Digital Media & Communications) and Virtual (Online programme).

CJMedia (cjmedia.online)

Launched in Oct 2020, this resource website provides relevant resources, training and teaching material for school teachers, ministers, kids and youth workers and many others. The resources include videos, worksheets, keynotes and live streams produced by the in-house team or in partnership with other organisations. All resources are free of charge after registration is completed.

Hope Monaghan

Hope is a Missional Community Centre in Monaghan which offers practical Christian love through foodbank, soup lunches, prayer ministry and an after-school café for teenagers. It runs in partnership with a local church.

Hope Chapel Lane

Situated in the heart of Belfast City Centre, this missional hub is open Monday to Saturday as the team work in partnership with a variety of agencies offering practical help and support with a focus of pointing people to the transforming love of Jesus. Previously Berry Street Presbyterian, Hope Chapel Lane is a place to worship, serve, learn, and pray with a focus on revival and mission. A typical week involves street evangelism and prayer on Monday, Teen Challenge partnership on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, Revival Now gatherings on Thursday evenings and a Prayer Healing Clinic on Friday.

(A company limited by guarantee, not having a share capital)
STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES
for the financial year ended 31 July 2025

 
The trustees, who are also directors of Crown Jesus Ministries  for the purposes of company law, are responsible for preparing the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
 

Company law requires the trustees as the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law) including FRS102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland". Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the net income or expenditure of the charity for that period.

In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

 

■observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;

■make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

■state whether the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards, identify those standards, and note the effect and the reasons for any material departure from those standards; and

■prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.

 
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

In so far as the trustees are aware:

■there is no relevant audit information (information needed by the charity's auditor in connection with preparing the auditor's report) of which the charity's auditor is unaware, and

■the trustees have taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as trustees in order to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the charity's auditor is aware of that information.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
to the Members of Crown Jesus Ministries
(A company limited by guarantee, not having a share capital)

 
Report on the audit of the financial statements
 
Opinion
We have audited the charity financial statements of Crown Jesus Ministries  ('the charity') for the financial year ended 31 July 2025 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities (incorporating an Income and Expenditure Account), the Balance Sheet and notes to the financial statements, including the summary of significant accounting policies set out in note . The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with FRS 102.

In our opinion, when reporting in accordance with a fair presentation framework the financial statements:

■give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs as at 31 July 2025 and of its deficit for the financial year then ended;

■have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and

■have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

 
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
 
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
 
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
 
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
 
Other Information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our Auditor's Report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
 
Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
 
Opinion on other matter prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
the information given in the Trustees' Annual Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
the Trustees' Annual Report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
 
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees' Annual Report.
 
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
adequate accounting records have not been kept; or
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
certain disclosures of trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
the trustees were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies' exemption in preparing the Trustees' Annual Report.
 
Responsibilities of trustees for the financial statements
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities set out on page 8, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
 
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
 
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditor's Report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
 
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
 

The objectives of our audit in respect of fraud, are to identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements due to fraud; to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstatement due to fraud, through designing and implementing appropriate responses to those assessed risks; and to respond appropriately to instances of fraud or suspect fraud identified during the audit. However, the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with both management and those charged with governance of the Charity.

Based on our understanding of the charity and the environment in which they operate, we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to the Charities Act 2008 and Companies Act 2006, and we considered the extent to which non-compliance with these might have a material effect on the financial statements. We evaluated management's incentive and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of override of controls), and determined that the principal risks were related to the posting of inappropriate income journal entries and management bias.

Our approach was as follows:

- We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory requirements applicable to the charity and considered that the most significant are the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102);

- Enquiry of management and those charged with governance to identify instances of non compliance with laws and regulations;

- Reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations;

- We test the completeness of income to address the risk of fraud in income recognition;

- Auditing the risk of management override of controls, including through testing journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness.

 
Further information regarding the scope of our responsibilities as auditor
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs (UK), we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the charity's internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by trustees.
Conclude on the appropriateness of the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty  exists, we are required to draw attention in our Auditor's Report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our Auditor's Report. However, future events or conditions may cause the charity to cease to continue as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
 
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
 
Other matters which we are required to address
The financial statements of the company for the year ended 31 July 2024 were not audited. Consequently, we have not audited the corresponding figures in the comparative financial statements,  and we do not express an opinion on them.
 
The purpose of our audit work and to whom we owe our responsibilities
This report is made solely to the charity's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for the financial year ended 31 July 2025

   
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
 
Crown Jesus Ministries is a company limited by guarantee incorporated in Northern Ireland. The registered office of the charity is 7 Calvin Street, Belfast, County Antrim, BT5 4NS, Northern Ireland which is also the principal place of business of the charity. The financial statements have been presented in Pound (£) which is also the functional currency of the charity.
           
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The following accounting policies have been applied consistently in dealing with items which are considered material in relation to the charity’s financial statements.
 
Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) "Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland FRS 102".

As permitted by the Companies Act 2006, the charity has varied the standard formats in that act for the Statement of Financial Activities and the Balance Sheet. Departures from the standard formats are to comply with the requirements of the Charities SORP and are in compliance with section 4.7, 10.6 and 15.2 of that SORP.

Going Concern

The Trustee's of Crown Jesus Ministries have reviewed the appropriateness of the going concern assumption and believe that the charity has sufficient resources available to enable it to continue to meet its ongoing obligations for at least a period of 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements.  As at 31 July 2025 the charity held cash at bank of ?185,041 (2024: ?159,174) and total funds of ?465,735 (2024: ?468,309). The Trustee's consider the results of the charity for the year ended 31 July 2025 to be satisfactory and achieved in line with the charity's objectives. The charity's performance and forecasts to 31 July 2027 show the charity continues to generate income and reserve levels remain positive. Accordingly, the Trustee's believe that it is appropriate to continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

 
Statement of compliance
The financial statements of the charity for the financial year ended 31 July 2025 have been prepared on the going concern basis and in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) "Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland FRS 102".
 
Cash flow statement
The charity has availed of the exemption in FRS 102 from the requirement to produce a cash flow statement because it is classified as a small charity.
 
Fund accounting
The following are the categories of funds maintained:
 
Restricted funds
Restricted funds represent income received which can only be used for particular purposes, as specified by the donors. Such purposes are within the overall objectives of the charity.
 
Unrestricted funds

Unrestricted funds consist of General and Designated funds.

■ General funds represent amounts which are expendable at the discretion of the board, in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.

■ Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that the board has, at its discretion, set aside for particular purposes. These designations have an administrative purpose only, and do not legally restrict the board's discretion to apply the fund.

 
Income
Income is recognised by inclusion in the Statement of Financial Activities only when the charity is legally entitled to the income, performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, the amounts involved can be measured with sufficient reliability and it is probable that the income will be received by the charity.
 
Income from charitable activities

Income from charitable activities include income earned from the supply of services under contractual arrangements and from performance related grants which have conditions that specify the provision of particular services to be provided by the charity.

Income from government and other co-funders is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to the income because it is fulfilling the conditions contained in the related funding agreements.

 
Expenditure

Expenditure is analysed between costs of charitable activities and raising funds. The costs of each activity are separately accumulated and disclosed, and analysed according to their major components.

Expenditure is recognised when a legal or constructive obligation exists as a result of a past event, a transfer of economic benefits is required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be reliably measured. Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but cannot be attributed to one activity.

Such costs are allocated to activities in proportion to staff time spent or other suitable measure for each activity.

 
Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost or at valuation, less accumulated depreciation. The charge to depreciation is calculated to write off the original cost or valuation of tangible fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives as follows:
 
  Land and buildings freehold   2% Straight line  
  Fixtures, Fittings and Equipment   20% Reducing balance  
  Motor Vehicles   20% Reducing balance  
  Studio and Computer Equipment   20% Straight line  
 
Debtors
Debtors are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.
 
Creditors
Creditors are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.
 
Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand comprises cash on deposit at banks requiring less than three months notice of withdrawal.
 
Taxation
No current or deferred taxation arises as the charity has been granted charitable exemption. Irrecoverable valued added tax is expensed as incurred.
 
Pensions

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme for employees. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the charity.

Annual contributions payable to the charity's pension scheme are charged to the income and expenditure account in the period to which they relate.
