Welcome to Concord International! Also known as CISDAC. We are multicultural, multilingual and multiethnic church. We would like to think that we represent what God’s kingdom looks like. But God’s kingdom is not known just as people from all nations and languages, but also as disciples who reflect the God’s character through our own lives. My prayer is that you come to know Jesus better today than you knew Him before.

– Pedro M Trinidad, Pastor

Connect Cards

The pastor would like to connect with you in a way that goes beyond the casual greeting or when sometimes the timing isn't right. The Connect Card is a way of letting him know that you would like a visit, a phone call, a prayer request, or you would like to communicate some other information. These cards can be found in the pews. If you are visiting us today, we invite you to fill the card with as much information as you want to give and put it in the offering plate as the offering is being collected.
