About Fellowship of Indonesian Christians in America
-
FICA (Fellowship of Indonesian Christians in America) is a para-church organization with the mission to equip Indonesian Christians to make impact in their communities for Christ. Our passion is to see Indonesian Christians faithfully and obediently fulfill the Great Commission and Cultural Mandate in this world, especially in Indonesia.
FICA is a movement with a vision and passion to equip Indonesian Christians to make impact in their communities for Christ. These vision and passion are the results of our understanding and conviction of Jesus Christ’s calling for Christians to bring the Good News to people of the world, to be the salt and light of the world, and to bring God’s glory as Jesus incarnates in our daily lives. Jesus also says that we are not of this world but still lives in this world thus our influence in the world for God’s glory is critical. Therefore, we believe that His calling to us is sacred, precious, and vital for the world to hear His Good News! We need to be influential Christians, functioning as the salt and light of Christ as well as His ambassadors to this world. Both our unique individualities (our vocations, interests, talents, etc.) and the unity of the body of Christ are to be used in His kingdom plan in all aspect of lives.
We dearly hold to the truth that Jesus spoken of in Matthew 28:18-20 as our mission in this world: “God authorized and commanded me to commission you: Go out and train everyone you meet, far and near, in this way of life, marking them by baptism in the threefold name: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Then instruct them in the practice of all I have commanded you. I’ll be with you as you do this, day after day after day, right up to the end of the age.” (The Message)
