God can doANYTHING you know—
far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams! Ephesians 3:20 MV

i5 CHURCH launched in September 2012 with a vision to impact people, inspiring them to impact the world with us. Our mission is to go into the world, be the tangible hands and feet of Christ by providing food, water, shelter, clothing and care to the least of these.
Over the last three years, our impact has been significant. Thousands of people have discovered their God–given purpose and are now living beyond themselves. Over 300 kids have been sponsored around the world. Hundreds of students and families have discovered community through our sports programs. We have changed what Christmas and Back To School mean for thousands of kids and families in our communities. We will continue to make Jesus famous here in Maryland and beyond.
It’s amazing to see all God has done in such a short amount of time. The crazy thing is, when it comes to this world change stuff, “this is just the beginning!” There are more people to be impacted, more people to be reached, and more lives to be changed. In other words, it’s time to CHANGE THE GAME!
Jimmy and Irene Rollins, Lead Pastors
It’s time to CHANGE THE GAME!
The church does not exist for us; we exist to impact the world. We are not a church that does outreach we are an outreach powered by the church.
i5 CHURCH is a community-centric church, which defined, is a diverse living organism that the community can rely on.
The i5 Story began in 2010 while Pastor Jimmy Rollins was in Nakuru, Kenya. The vision was clear: have people BE THE CHURCH and not just attend it! We believe that people are looking for a purpose that connects them to something greater than themselves and will not be satisfied with just a weekend experience. Our goal is to transform the inward impact of a weekend experience into the tangible outward actions of Christ-followers with a mission and a purpose. In other words, we want to IMPACT YOU TO IMPACT THE WORLD.
Be the Church
Kenya Project 2012
You’re here to be light, bringing out the God-colors in the world. God is not a secret to be kept. We’re going public with this, as public as a city on a hill. Matthew 5:14 MSG
Kids
THE CHURCH SHOULD BE A MOVEMENT TO IMPROVE THE COMMUNITY. It must provide abundant life-giving environments where people discover purpose and significance. A church is the hands and feet of Christ in the culture of its community; loving, compassionate, purposed and poised for service.
What is Church?
What is a community
?
Businesses
Schools
Kids
Playgrounds
Sports
Families
A community is made up of the families, kids, schools, sports, playgrounds, teachers and local businesses that comprise the culture of a people-group. It is the better part of what makes up what we experience on a daily basis. It is a movement around us that continues with or without us. If we never impact it, we never will see the full potential of the story God has written for it.

GAME CHANGERSwill enable us to expand our reach by having a central location to prepare and distribute food, train our student-athletes in positive safe environments, provide training and connection for our communities, and continue to experience God in incredible ways during our worship experiences.
We will also create dedicated space for our kids and students as we build them into world changers. In fact, building more world changers is what Game Changers is all about. As we make moves to redeem what looks to be an old warehouse, let us never lose sight of our call to redeem and restore people. This restored facility will be the epicenter for life change and will increase our voice in the community to be a city on a hill that can not be hidden.
As we continue to pursue what God has called us to do, I challenge you to make your mark as we become GAME CHANGERS in the lives of people around the world!
Our goal is to raise $9 million over the next two years to realize the vision that God has for Maryland and beyond through i5
Increase our commitment to Leadership Development for Interns, Team Leads, Coaches, and Dream Team members.
Provide dedicated space for training and development of i5 and the community.
Strategically position the staff to meet the demands of a fast growing church.
Open Sports Complex and training facility to generate opportunities to sustain ministry and community initiatives.
Relocate our campus into a new facility nearby, which will more than double our capacity and catalyze the next decade of our story
[GROW] IN FAITH, NUMBER AND VISION
“I’ve grown in every aspect of my life. But what I didn’t realize was that i5 CHURCH was molding me to be a leader. Being at i5, I understand what my calling and purpose is, and that’s to impact the world.”- Trenda
If it wasn’t for the vision of i5 ELITE, I don’t think I would be in church. It’s not just a track club. It reaches people through a different avenue, that wouldn’t step foot in a church.” – April
[RELATE] TO CHURCH, FAMILY AND FRIENDS
Accelerate ministry at every level including worship, kids ministry, students and groups.
Provide Community programs for families to build relationship.
Facilitate diversity opportunities and awareness events.
Provide dedicated space for groups and communal gatherings.
Expand our support for our child sponsorship partners like One Child Matters and Children’s Cup in India, Philippines, Honduras and Kenya.
Invest into planting churches through teaching and developing pastors through RED Leaders and increasing our support into the Association of Related Churches.
Increase our commitment to Education, Ending Human Trafficking, and Prison Ministry.
Empower our local partners and relationships built through Be the Five and other projects through the new i5 Center 501c3 with donated goods and health and wellness services.
[SERVE] GOD, CHURCH AND OTHERS
Philippines project 2014
“From someone who is just discovering her faith and getting into church, I’ve been with i5 for a little over a year now, and so for me to come out and actually do what we preach about is pretty awesome.” - Back To School Volunteer
“To come to i5 CHURCH and see that they do so much, and they are so outward focused and they have an amazing outreach ... I can absolutely see the vision, I love the city on a hill, I can see the purpose of it, and I can see that God is positioning people to receive those who are going to flood to the city on a hill.” – Kwanza Gipson
