Public benefits
Purpose 1: To advance the gospel of Jesus Christ among the general public, in accordance with biblical principles and practice in Dungannon, its surrounding areas, the UK and abroad. The public benefit which flows from this purpose is that the gospel of Jesus Christ is communicated among the general public resulting in personal faith in Him and
lives lived in a law-abiding, moral and godly manner. The spiritual, physical, emotional and pastoral needs of children, young people, adults and older people are met within a church or mission context through public worship services and a range of activities. These benefits are demonstrated through informal feedback from church members, those who attend activities, their families and the community in which we serve. There is no harm arising from this purpose. The beneficiaries are the general public. The trustees gain personally from the charity, but only in the same way that any other member of the public may. Purpose 2: To prevent or relieve poverty among those in hardship in Dungannon, its surrounding areas, the UK and abroad, by means of financial or other material support. The public benefits, which flow from this purpose, are improved financial standing, living conditions, health and reduced levels of anxiety of the beneficiaries. These benefits are evidenced through periodic reports from the beneficiaries, or by visits to the beneficiaries by either church members or those known to the church. There is no private benefit. The beneficiaries are the general public.
