International Christian Assembly (ICA)

International Christian Assembly (ICA) is an international church in Hong Kong. ICA was founded in 1973 by Reverend Otis Keener who was a missionary affiliated with the Assemblies of God Division of Foreign Missions in the USA. The leaders of the mission board gave him permission to move to Hong Kong and pioneer ICA which was the first of its kind. There are now many International Christian Assemblies in other major cities worldwide. From its first meetings in the former Furama Hotel (now the AIG Tower) in Central, Hong Kong followed by those in a number of locations which included the Hong Kong Exhibition & Convention Centre, ICA is now permanently situated in North Point having purchased and converted an old theater building in 1996 which is adequate to house the 1,000-member congregation and meeting rooms. Apart from the Main Church building, ICA's building facilities also include ministry centers in North Point, Wan Chai and Chai Wan. ICA is Pentecostal in belief. Their motto is "Reaching our generations, releasing into the nations"
