We
are Christians of many nationalities and denominational backgrounds,
bound together by our need or desire to worship in English in the midst
of an Indonesian speaking community. In
mid 1995 a group of Indonesian ministers and other Christians began to meet
for the purposes of prayer and fellowship. Recognizing the need for an
English speaking worship service, Yogyakarta International Congregation
was formed and weekly worship service began in November 1995. Participating
speakers are Christian ministers and lay people who live
in Yogyakarta, or may be visiting the area. Careful attention is given
when choosing speakers to ensure that they represent the mainstream of
Christianity, however speakers vary in denominational and / or
theological backgrounds, thereby contributing a unique diversity to our
fellowship. There is no official membership at YIC. This enables participants to retain membership in their home churches. We view each other as fellow members of the Body of Christ; as such, we seek to build up this international, interdenominational congregation.
