MISSION AND VISION

Our mission is to build people who are world changers. We help individuals grow in character, capacity, and calling, advancing the Kingdom of God through spiritual formation and practical empowerment.

“Building People. Restoring Purpose. Transforming Lives.”

Our Story and Vision

Formed in 1991, Christian International Church (formerly True Vine Christian Center) is a presence-driven church and living expression of God’s heart to heal, restore, and reproduce His life in people. Located in Lincoln Park, NJ, we serve as a City of Refuge in our region, a place of safety and renewal for all who come seeking hope. We are a House of Restoration, helping people rediscover their identity and purpose in Christ. And we are a Community of Reproduction, equipping believers to multiply the life of Jesus in others. 

Our calling is both spiritual and practical: meeting needs, strengthening families, training leaders, and raising up difference-makers who reflect God’s excellence, build His Kingdom, and carry the power of the Holy Spirit to make a lasting impact in homes, workplaces, neighborhoods, and beyond.  

Our heart is simple: to build people, so they can build the Kingdom.

We believe that transformed people transform families, transformed families transform communities, and transformed communities become expressions of the Kingdom of God.
