ICS does English language ministry to people on five continents, in twenty countries, through church planting, supporting churches, the fifty mission partners in their ministries, and through outreach projects.

We work with people for whom English is their first, second or even fifth language. They may be political or economic migrants, those fleeing war, businesspeople, ex-pats who have settled, or perhaps tourists and travellers passing through. Of course, English is not the only language we work in, but it is often our starting point.  

We can achieve what we do because of the most generous support of those people who stand alongside us and give financially, and in prayer. So, this autumn, I ask you to journey with us as we approach the end of our 200th year, to make a gift to the ministry and life of ICS. It may be £1000, £500 or £50, or whatever sum is appropriate to you. We are so thankful for the loyal, sacrificial support from our members and friends.

Secondly, if you can give regularly, could I ask you to consider starting or increasing a standing order to ICS? Ongoing regular support is so valuable as we plan and develop new opportunities.

ICS is in a good place, we have come a long way, but there is much to do and challenges to face. Thank you for standing with us as we continue to fulfil this Gospel ministry. Your partnership and friendship are essential to us.

The Revd Canon Richard Bromley ICS Mission Director
