We believe the local church is the hope of the world.
The International Christian Fellowship started as a local church 15 years ago. Our goal was to reach the young generation in Zurich, Switzerland in a very relevant and attractive way.
The church grew to over 1500 people in the first 4 years.
We never wanted to plant other churches. But what started as a local church became a church planting movement for Europe.
We helped to plant over 40 churches.
In 2010 we launched 4 new churches in 4 different countries: Vorarlberg, Austria - Augsburg, Germany - Salamanca, Spain - Leiden, Holland
Also in 2010, 3 existing ICF churches went multi-site and launched a new locations in, Lucerne, Switzerland - Biel, Switzerland - Friedrichsrain, Germany.
The ICF Movement has grown to over 880 people in 2010.
All ICF churches have close to 9000 visitors in over 60 weekend celebrations in 7 European countries now: Switzerland, Germany, Czech Republic, Austria, Spain, Netherlands. Albania.
What started as a local church has become a sign of hope and a fresh breath for church planting in Europe.
