What We Do : Our Ministries

At IHC we are focused on reaching out to the community in our urban setting and around the world to create community, train and equip in various areas, disciple, and to make church planting a more effective effort. As we reach out to people in our urban environment, we want to partner with those across the country that are hoping to do the same things in their neighborhoods, villages, towns, and cities. Here’s a quick look at some of the amazing things that we are doing, with more in store ahead!

IHC is open to all grade school children for homework help and tutoring.

Whatever the subject may be, IHC reaches out to the communities young Einsteins to help further their education.
