Welcome to ICF

International Christian Fellowship is a Spirit-filled, charismatic church in Fairfax, Virginia. We welcome you to our multicultural fellowship and believe you will experience the presence, love and liberty of Jesus and His Spirit in our services.
We are a small, relationally connected assembly of Christians from various ethnic backgrounds. Our vision is to see people saved, healed, set free, equipped, empowered and serving.
Our Pastors
For more than twenty years, Bill and Jennifer Marshall have faithfully served in Spirit-filled ministry in Fairfax and internationally.
They have a special heart for Southeast Asia, ministering at drug rehabilitation centers, small rural churches and orphanages—and sharing the love of Jesus with people they meet along the way.
They would be honored to welcome you personally to ICF.

Local Church. International Mission.
Alongside our Fairfax-based assembly, ICF has an extensive mission in Vietnam and Thailand.
We principally serve Vietnamese refugees, people recovering from addiction, rural congregations and children in orphanages.



Faith in Action
We believe Jesus still saves, heals and sets people free. Our ministry is personal, prayerful and grounded in Scripture.

Those who repent and believe are baptized by immersion as an outward sign of salvation and new life in Christ.

We make room to pray personally for healing, freedom, renewal and the empowering presence of the Holy Spirit.
What We Believe—and Why
Our faith and practice are grounded in the inspired Word of God and centered on Jesus Christ.
The Bible is the inspired Word of God, His revelation to humanity and our infallible rule of faith and conduct.
Humanity was created good and upright but voluntarily fell. Our only hope of redemption is through Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
All who repent and believe should be baptized by immersion in water as an outward sign of salvation and repentance.
In communion we remember Christ through bread and the cup, proclaiming His sacrifice and receiving by faith the healing He provides for body, mind and spirit.
Jesus is our example of servanthood. His washing of the disciples’ feet calls us to serve one another in humility and love.
Believers should seek the promised Holy Spirit, as the early Christians did, receiving power for ministry and daily living.
Sanctification is both a completed positional work of grace and an ongoing, lived process of becoming holy.
The baptism in the Holy Spirit is evidenced by the initial physical sign of speaking in other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance.
The Church is the Body of Christ—the people of God and His habitation through the Spirit—commissioned to carry out His work.
Deliverance from sickness is provided through Christ and is a privilege for believers. We call for prayer and anointing with oil.
Scripture teaches that one-tenth of our increase belongs to God and should be brought into His house. Offerings are given beyond the tithe.
We are called to seek first God’s Kingdom and to see His will accomplished on earth as it is in heaven.
We await the resurrection of those who have fallen asleep in Christ and the gathering of those who remain at the Lord’s coming.
We believe in the revelation of Jesus from heaven, the salvation of Israel and the promised reign of Christ on earth.
We believe Scripture’s teaching concerning final judgment and the lake of fire for the devil, his angels and all whose names are not in the Book of Life.
According to His promise, we look for a new heaven and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.
Holiness becomes God’s house. We honor His presence and gather with reverence in every way.
Christians should be respectable citizens who live in love and peace, pray for and aid one another, remain slow to take offense and stay ready for reconciliation.
Encountering God in Our Services
We desire each service to be led by the Spirit of God. These biblical expressions of worship and ministry are part of our life together.
Scripture calls God’s people to joyful praise. We have much to celebrate in the One who redeemed us and set us free. Psalm 47:1; 66:1; 95:1
Lifted hands express worship, surrender and recognition of Jesus as Lord of Lords. Psalm 63:4; 134:2; 1 Timothy 2:8
We make room to wait quietly on God rather than forcing an agenda. We hunger for His presence and trust the Holy Spirit to lead.
In obedience to Scripture, we pray for people and may anoint them with oil. We have no power in ourselves; we simply serve as vessels of God. Mark 6:13; James 5:14
We believe this gift is for every believer, bringing boldness and power to witness, pray and worship. Speaking in tongues is its initial evidence. Acts 1:8; 2:4; 10:46
God may speak to His church through gifts such as tongues and interpretation, bringing guidance, instruction, encouragement and strength. 1 Corinthians 12 & 14
At times, a person may fall under the power of God while receiving prayer. We believe God may be healing, refreshing, directing or speaking to that individual. 2 Chronicles 5:14; Revelation 1:17
