Welcome home
...seriously, we mean it! We want IBC to be a place where everyone feels welcome, where deep relationships can be built that will help us follow Jesus, a safe place where faith can grow.
Our services and programs are open to anyone. You do not need to be a member of IBC or even consider yourself a Christian. We do hope, however, that you would meet Jesus here. So, please do feel free to attend our programs.
If you have relocated to Hamburg recently and you are looking for a new home church we would like to get to know you. Please contact the church office.
Program
Our Sunday services are celebrations: The great diversity of our congregation is evidence to us of a great God who saves people from any background imaginable. No wonder our worship is lively and loud! Part of our worship experience is our time of food and fellowship immediately after the service.
There are six different children’s groups that run parallel to the worship service: 0-3 years old – Bubbles, 4-6 years old – Bouncies, Grades 1-3 – 7ups, Grades 4-6 – Pre-teens, Grades 7-9 – Junior Teens and Grades 10+ – Senior Teens. More about our Family Ministry here.
We also have many other ministries which take place in our church on Sundays and also during the week. We would encourage everyone to try to become involved in one or more of these so as to connect with others and to serve the Lord.
You can find more Information about our Ministries here.
