Where It Began
Founded with a vision to create a space where faith meets community, ICAT has grown from humble beginnings into a vibrant church family. Our journey started with a small group of believers who shared a common dream: to build a church that welcomes everyone with open arms.
Through the years, we've witnessed countless lives transformed by the power of God's love. Each story, each testimony, and each person who walks through our doors adds to the rich tapestry of our community.
Who We Are Today
Today, we are a diverse congregation united by our faith in Jesus Christ. We believe in authentic worship, genuine community, and practical service that makes a real difference in people's lives.
Our mission extends beyond Sunday services. We're active in our community, supporting local initiatives, running outreach programs, and creating opportunities for people to encounter God's grace in tangible ways.
