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 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
