The Revealed Word Church
Charity 1150902
Overview
Summary
The Revealed Word Church appears to be a faith-based community organisation whose core model combines local fellowship in Wolverhampton with outward-facing religious outreach and support for missionary work. Its stated public benefit is framed broadly: it offers prayer, Christian literature and meeting space to the general public, while extending its religious purpose beyond the city through local and international connections. The available evidence suggests a small or congregational model, but does not show its scale, partnerships or reach.

Evidence and reasoning
Supporting evidence
Remaining uncertainties
- Direct evidence: the Charity Commission record identifies Birmingham City among the places where the charity operates. However, it gives no Birmingham venue, service location, project, ward or recognised-place location. No supplied Birmingham area can therefore be evidenced as a current operational area.
- Direct evidence: the trustees' report for the year ended 30 September 2024 refers to a rented/developed 'sanctuary' used for prayer meetings, services, meetings and workshops, but does not state where it is located. It must not be assumed to be at the Wolverhampton registered office.
- Reasonable interpretation: Birmingham is part of the charity's reported operational footprint, but the available evidence does not establish whether activity there is neighbourhood-based, district-wide, citywide, occasional outreach, or delivered through a partner.
- The Charity Commission record also reports operations in Dudley, Telford & Wrekin, Walsall, Wolverhampton, Chile, Ghana, Israel and the United States. This supports an international overall footprint, although the nature, regularity and scale of activity in each location are not described.
- No material Birmingham partnership extending the charity's reach was identified in the available authoritative records.
Additional evidence needed
- A current programme, service timetable, outreach notice or venue booking identifying where fellowship meetings, prayer meetings, outreach or workshops take place in Birmingham.
- Confirmation from the charity of the sanctuary's location at an appropriate geographic level and whether it is in Birmingham, Wolverhampton or another authority area.
- Current information identifying any Birmingham delivery partners, host venues or missionary partners and the activities they support.
- Evidence of the frequency, scale and beneficiary reach of Birmingham activity, to determine whether its local operational identity is neighbourhood-based, district-wide or citywide.

Observations
A local base with an outward mission
The organisation appears to use Wolverhampton as a base for fellowship and public religious activity while defining its mission as extending beyond the city through outreach and support for local and international missionary work.
Why it matters
This suggests its civic role may include both neighbourhood-based participation and connections to wider faith networks, rather than operating only as a local worship venue.

Public access is central to its stated model
The church appears to position fellowship meetings, prayer and literature as publicly accessible points of engagement, rather than describing its activity solely as support for existing members.
Why it matters
This distinguishes it from a purely inward-facing congregation and indicates a potential role as an accessible faith and meeting-space resource for people beyond a defined membership.

Its practical offer is place- and people-based
Alongside religious communication, the organisation appears to contribute through access to buildings or facilities and human resources, suggesting that its religious activity may depend on convening people as much as distributing materials.
Why it matters
This points to a possible civic function as a gathering place and volunteer-led support structure, which may create opportunities for local relationships not visible in its formal religious objects.

- The scale, frequency and locations of fellowship meetings and outreach are unknown.
- There is no evidence of named local partners, specific community groups reached or non-religious welfare activity.
- It is unclear whether its buildings or facilities are available beyond its own religious activities.
Remaining uncertainties
- Recent annual reports or activity updates showing attendance, outreach locations and beneficiaries.
- Information on local partnerships, use of facilities and the nature of missionary support.
