Where to pray?

‘Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labour in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the guards stand watch in vain.’ Psalm 127 v 1 (New International Version)

ICS believes passionately that our work is ineffective without the life-giving blessing of God. So prayer is our priority. To this end we encourage people to pray for our work individually, in groups and as churches.

ICS Prayer Groups meet around the UK who faithfully pray for the ministries. Groups are made up of supporters in a locality who agree to meet (say monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly) in a church or home. Some meet also for coffee, lunch or supper (before or after the sharing of news and prayer) which builds friendship and fellowship.

There are ICS prayer groups in Cambridge, Cheltenham, Exeter, Edinburgh, Keighley, Norfolk, North Birmingham, Northern Ireland, the South East, Warwick and Wirral. Do get in touch and phone for more information, 024-7646 3940.

Brexit, Faith and Identity: 2. 'What do you do?'

'What do you do?' is one of the three standard questions asked in the city that I call home: Brussels, Belgium. Last time I focused more on the question 'Where are you from?' here a second question confronts us: 'What do you do?' As Christians, we are in the world but we are called not to be of the world. That is, we are called to be the light and the salt, the witnesses and ambassadors of the Kingdom of God and not to define ourselves by worldly activities.

Appeal to further the Mission of ICS

New Work is an essential part of what ICS is about. Since we decided to help fund the work in Izmir our New Work opportunities have snowballed, and it is a delight to be part of this mission as we develop new opportunities and frontiers. ICS was founded as a frontier mission agency, I believe we are being not only true to our roots but also relevant to the times we live in. Read more
