Financial Statements
I am pleased to present the financial statements for Australian Christian Churches (ABN: 58 123 514 361). The financial comparison periods presented are: 1 January 2017 to 31 December 2018, & 1 January 2019 to 31 December 2020. The result from the current period is a strong net surplus. When comparing the presented periods, it is encouraging to see Income increase by more than 10%, combined with a decrease in overall expenses. The full audit reports for 2019 and 2020 are available for your review on Pastor’s Login.
COVID-19 Response The COVID-19 season has been a challenging one for all. We have witnessed our Churches quickly adapt and innovate according to the gathering restrictions of the day. It has been our privilege to provide help, support, ideas and resources to assist this adaptation. This season has also seen ACC at both National and State levels, engage with politicians and government departments, giving voice to the importance of our churches gathering together when safe to do so.
ACC Review Group The ACC Review Group (ACCRG) continued to function throughout 2019 and 2020. As a subcommittee of the National Executive, the ACCRG is essentially an Audit and Risk Committee charged with supporting the National Executive in its duty to govern and control entities (companies, incorporated associations, and unincorporated associations - over 40 in total) within the Movement. The ACCRG is a skills-based subcommittee comprised of business professionals from churches within our Movement. We were pleased to add two additional business professionals to the ACCRG over the period, being Stacey Bonney and Michael Kilham. I am very appreciative of the wise contributions the ACCRG members have made, and the additional layer of governance oversight provided by them. In closing, let me say that I greatly appreciate the ongoing work of our National Office team in all seasons, but particularly in the lead up to National Conference. I would also like to acknowledge the incredible volunteer contributions from various ACC churches in preparing for National Conference. On behalf of the ACC National Office, it is an honour to continue to serve this great Movement of ours.
