Who and What is MICN?
MICN is a network of International Churches, Networks, Organizations and Denominations who share a passion to Start and Strengthen International Churches and their leaders. MICN works with open hands, collaboratively empowering any group, church or organization committed to benefiting the International Church movement.
Join us October 5–8, 2026, in San José, Costa Rica, for the MICN Global Gathering, hosted by IBC Costa Rica.
This year’s gathering will focus on movement, mission, and the unique role of international churches in God’s global purposes. As people cross borders in unprecedented numbers, international churches are strategically placed to welcome the scattered, disciple the nations, and send transformed people as witnesses of Jesus into their workplaces, neighborhoods, home countries, and next nations.
With Alan Hirsch as our keynote speaker, we will explore what it means to become more than gathered communities, becoming missional, movemental, and multiplying churches. Along the way, we will also continue to engage the intercultural realities of international church ministry, learning how to lead wisely and faithfully across cultures.
Come connect with international church leaders, MICN partners, and friends from around the world as we worship, pray, learn, collaborate, and seek God together for the strengthening and multiplication of international churches for global impact.
Early bird registration is open until July 15.

In the never-ending ‘parade’ of ministry to the transient diaspora of international churches, how refreshing it is to find a group of like-minded practitioners who minister to that ‘parade’.

The only place I can meet with true peers! MICN is my home base, which is not geographic or organization, but a solid group of good friends.
