Our Story
Our Story
From a seed of faith to a house of prayer for all nations.
ICC House of Prayer began as a humble gathering of believers with one unwavering conviction: God still hears and answers prayer.
Founded on the timeless truth of Matthew 21:13 — “My house shall be called a house of prayer” — ICC is more than just a church; it’s a sanctuary of healing, restoration, and divine encounters.
Under the leadership of our General Overseer, Rev. Seth Mensah, and a devoted team of pastors and ministers across multiple branches in the UK and Ghana, ICC has become a spiritual home to people from all nations, races, and walks of life.
From our headquarters in London to vibrant branches in Harlow, Northampton, Luton, and beyond, ICC continues to grow — not by numbers alone, but in depth, impact, and intimacy with God.
We believe in the power of fervent, Spirit-led prayer, in preaching the uncompromised Word of God, and in building people who build the Kingdom. Our Sunday services, midweek gatherings, fasting seasons, and youth meetings all reflect one cry: “More of You, Lord.”
Our Mandate
A Heavenly Assignment. A People in Pursuit.
A Heavenly Assignment. A People in Pursuit.
At ICC House of Prayer, our mandate is not man-made — it is heaven-sent. Rooted in the words of Jesus in Matthew 21:13, “My house shall be called the house of prayer”, we embrace our calling with deep conviction and spiritual urgency.
We exist to cultivate a house where God dwells, speaks, heals, and reigns — a place where lives are transformed through the Word, prayer, worship, and Spirit-led fellowship.
We are Mandated to:
- Build a House of Prayer for All Nations Not just a church, but a spiritual altar where intercession rises and heaven responds.
- Preach the Gospel without Compromise Boldly declaring the truth of Jesus Christ, calling all men to repentance and new life.
- Disciple, Equip & Release Believers Raising spiritually mature believers who know their authority and walk in kingdom purpose.
- Break Chains through Fervent Intercession Standing in the gap for families, communities, and nations — until captives are free.
- Host the Presence of God Every service, every gathering, every moment saturated with His glory.
- Uphold Holiness & Righteous Living Teaching the fear of the Lord and the power of a consecrated life.
🙌🏾 Our Confession: “I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord.”

Our Core Values
What We Live By. What We Stand For.
At ICC House of Prayer, our values are more than words — they are spiritual pillars that shape our culture, our worship, our ministry, and our daily lives. They guide how we love, serve, grow, and reflect Christ to the world.
Christ-Centred Living
Jesus is the foundation of everything we are and everything we do. We strive to live lives that reflect His nature, love, and power.
Fervent Prayer
We are called to be a House of Prayer. We believe that consistent, Spirit-led prayer unlocks heaven’s agenda and destroys the works of the enemy.
Unity & Family
We are one body — diverse in background, united in Christ. We cherish fellowship, honour one another, and build a loving, safe spiritual family.
Spirit-Led Worship
We worship in spirit and in truth, creating an atmosphere where the Holy Spirit moves freely to heal, deliver, and transform.
Discipleship & Growth
We are committed to raising mature believers who know the Word, walk in the Spirit, and impact their world.
Compassion & Service
We follow Christ’s example by serving others in love, caring for the broken, and reaching out to the lost with open arms.
