History of ICC

ICC was founded by Ravi Chandran and his wife Lillian Leow in July 2002. There was a need to start an interdenominational English language church in Copenhagen city at that time and ICC became the first of its kind. From about 60 people in the first meeting, the congregation has well over 120 regulars with literally hundreds passing through a transitional period due to work and education. Due to this, ICC has a wide network of contacts among Christians and churches around the world till this day. 

Nationally, ICC works in corporation with national church councils among ethnic Danes and ethnic minorities. ICC is also registered under the church ministry with tax deduction rights and permission to conduct weddings. Internationally, we are involved in missions via Merriwa International Foundation in church planting and humanitarian aid services. We are thankful to God for His blessings upon the ministry over the years and enablement to be a blessing to others as well.
  
The vision of the church is to help people get in touch with God others and their destiny. This is in accordance to our Lord’s command to love God with all our hearts, soul, mind and strength and to love our neighbours as ourselves. The church aspires to do this in the most practical and down to earth fashion. We strive to be spiritually natural and naturally spiritual in the process.
  
Ravi and Lillian who founded the church are from Singapore. Lillian was a Buddhist and Ravi was a Hindu and before they became Christians in the late seventies and early eighties consecutively. They later became missionaries and travelled widely to over 50 nations in Asia, Africa and Europe. It was during these travels that they met in Africa and got married in 1989. Today, they reside in Denmark with their sons Prince and Josiah. Besides leading ICC, Ravi is also employed by the AIDS Foundation as counsellor in the field of reproductive health. Ravi has two PhD degrees, one in Theology and one in Counselling while Lillian is a Maters Candidate for Biblical Education.
