International Community Church started on July 17, 2011 with 12 members, 6 adults and 6 kids. Under the able leadership of Pastor Emmanuel Lamptey, Mr. Emmanuel Agyei, Mr. Joe Stephens, Madam Gladys Tachie-Menson, Madam Rita Adeflagbe and Miss Mavis Addison, a church that started with nothing but six chairs for the adults and kids sitting on the floor has grown to 40 adults and 20 children within a year.
Our current membership includes, Ghanaians, Nigerians, Togolese, Cameroonians, Jamaicans, and Americans. By God’s great provision we have fully furnished adult and children’s churches with up to date audio and sound equipment.
