Achievements and Performance

Review of 2025 Church Ministries

In 2025, the church theme was “Desiring Worship, Deepening Spiritual Life, Strengthening God’s Family, and Passing on the Mission.” Through worship, fellowship life, and service, we sought to help brothers and sisters experience spiritual growth. Regardless of cultural or personal backgrounds, all members were given space to know God more deeply, to learn worship and service, and to pursue renewal and growth in their spiritual lives.

At the same time, we encouraged families within the church - regardless of size - to participate together in worship and service. In doing so, families were able to grow together spiritually and, through serving in unity, become a blessing to the wider church community.

In addition, fellowship groups, small group pastoral care, and evangelistic outreach remained key priorities of our church ministry. We hoped that members would deepen their relationships with one another and grow together in truth and mutual support. Both LAC and Morley congregations developed various small groups to meet different needs, alongside individual evangelistic nurturing, baptism preparation, and membership transfer arrangements. These efforts aimed to support believers at different stages of their spiritual journey—strengthening their relationship with God, encouraging active participation in church life, and fostering commitment to the mission of the gospel. Over the past year, we witnessed together the abundant grace of our Heavenly Father.

For this, we gave thanks to God, who enabled brothers and sisters to grow over the past year and willingly dedicate their time in various areas of service. This was truly a work of God’s grace. Furthermore, in response to the needs arising from church growth, the Deacons’ Board established a Personnel Team and a Finance Team in 2025. Deacons, together with non-voting members, participated in planning and preparation, enabling more thorough readiness for future development, including staffing arrangements. We prayed that God would continue to lead the church forward. Thanks be to the Lord!

For The Year Ended 31 December 2025

Review of 2025 Church Ministries - continued

Fellowships adopted a small group format, enabling members to participate in serving and in preparing fellowship content. This also provided opportunities to learn how to lead Bible studies and group discussions, strengthening commitment and equipping members for service.
The Morley congregation celebrated its first anniversary with a thanksgiving service, testimony sharing, a health seminar, and a fellowship meal, encouraging members to deepen their commitment and involvement.
Each quarter, new members were invited to serve in various roles within service gatherings. This year, there was an increase in children’s ministry teachers (both lead and assistant teachers) as well as youth mentors. This supported children’s growth through learning from different teachers, while also allowing co-workers to complement one another and share the ministry load.
The Mandarin congregation launched a monthly evangelistic Bible study, reaching seekers and new believers, and addressing questions related to the Christian faith.
In April, a joint Good Friday service (bilingual) and Easter Sunday service were held, providing opportunities for both Cantonese- and Mandarin-speaking congregations to worship and serve together.
In May, a church outing was held at Kirkstall Abbey Park, with approximately 85 participants. Activities included programmes for children and youth, as well as museum visits.
In August, a summer outing combined with a family sports day was held, with around 70 attendees. This also provided opportunities to connect with new friends and non-believing spouses.
In September, a joint adult and youth worship service was held, including a Sunday School promotion ceremony. This not only blessed students transitioning to secondary school but also helped parents better understand the church’s care and pastoral support for children.
In September, both LAC and the Morley congregation held Mid-Autumn Thanksgiving gatherings. Through testimonies, games, festive activities, sharing, and fellowship meals, members and neighbours were connected, and newcomers were introduced to the church community.
In October, the new academic year university evangelistic fellowship commenced, reaching students at different stages of faith and with varying needs. Recent graduates also participated in serving and supporting the fellowship, caring for the growth of new members.
In November, the church held its 27th Anniversary Joint Service and Baptism at the Morley congregation. On that day, 4 individuals were baptised and 8 transferred memberships. We thanked God for members’ active participation in service and for the testimony of His work in people’s lives.
In December, a Christmas Sunday service was held to commemorate the birth of Christ and to reflect on God’s faithful guidance throughout the year.

Looking into 2026

The church theme for 2026 is “Establishing Life and Stability, Embracing Change and Renewal, Faithful to Our Calling, Rooted in God’s Kingdom.”
Through preaching from different books of the Bible, as well as fellowship and small group Bible studies, we aim to explore the relationship between the annual theme and spiritual growth. We hope that, in an ever-changing world, believers will stand firm on the foundation of God’s Word and gain greater clarity in their identity and direction in all areas of life.
We seek to develop fellowship and small group leaders, nurturing lay leaders so that members may further exercise their gifts and respond to their sense of burden for ministry, serving together in various ministries and strengthening both the LAC and Morley congregation.
At the Morley congregation, we will establish a ministry planning committee to respond to the needs of the local community. In the coming year, we will also begin pastoral ministry for lower and upper secondary students, deepening our investment in the next generation.
We aim to build up teachers and mentors for children and youth ministries in both congregations, while providing suitable teaching resources to enrich content, with the goal of fostering growth in both teaching quality and spiritual formation, and laying a strong foundation for long-term development.
We will continue to provide care and pastoral support for university students and young working adults, strengthening connections among them, encouraging the study of God’s Word together, and building a firm foundation in faith through mutual encouragement and fellowship.
The church will further explore the pastoral needs of both the Cantonese and Mandarin congregations, and establish future directions and frameworks, so that families from different cultural backgrounds and with different needs may receive more comprehensive care and support.
Through Hong Kong fellowship groups, we will care for immigrant families, helping them prepare for future needs and adapt to changes in identity.
Through sharing by various local and overseas mission organizations, members will gain a better understanding of future mission opportunities, how to engage in cross-cultural ministry where they are, and how to pray for different mission fields.
Other key gatherings and activities—including children and youth summer programs, promotion ceremonies, special services, community events, and anniversary celebrations—will continue to be organized in 2026. We look forward to more members participating enthusiastically in service, being inspired by the love of the Lord, witnessing the goodness of the gospel, and enabling more lives to come to know the reality of God. Thanks be to the Lord!

Trustees' Report (continued)

For The Year Ended 31 December 2025

Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities

The trustees (who are also the directors of Leeds Alliance Church for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statement unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing the financial statements the trustees are required to:

select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.

The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at anytime the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Leeds Alliance Church

For The Year Ended 31 December 2025

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Leeds Alliance Church

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2025.

Responsibilities and Basis of Report

As the charity trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law), you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (“the 2006 Act”).

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent Examiner's Statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair view' which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
