ACC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | National Operations |

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 2021 to 31 December 2021, & 1 January 2022 to 31 December 2022.

Both reporting periods achieved a net surplus. As experienced by most, we are feeling the effect of inflationary pressures across many expense lines, and continue to make operational adjustments to limit the impact of this.

If you would like to view the full audit reports for 2021 and 2022, or have any other queries on the financials, please write to me at general.manager@acc.org.au

Highlights

Member Services System

It has been exciting to implement a new Member Services System (Database) and replacement Pastor’s Login. Though not without its teething problems, we are already seeing the benefits of increased automation, flexibility and security. We will continue to enhance the technology to better serve you, our members.

ACC Review Group

The ACC Review Group (ACCRG) continued to function throughout 2021 and 2022. 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. 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 how much I value the ongoing hard 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.
