Intercontinental Church Society

ICS is an international Church of England mission agency which seeks to make known the Christ of the Scriptures to people of any nationality who speak English.

Our ministry is to people who speak English—of which there are around 1.5 billion in the world. ICS partners around 55 chaplains and assistant chaplains working in 65 new and long-established congregations in Europe, North Africa, South America, the South Atlantic and South East Asia. We also provide Resort Mission in holiday destinations in Europe and the Mediterranean.

All chaplains linked to ICS work under the license and authority of the Bishop in whose diocese they minister. ICS works closely with all diocesan bishops, their staff, and the congregations it partners in the management of appointments, church-planting, youth work and other ministry projects.
