International Christian Center

What International Christian Center does

International Christian Center (Centro Cristiano Internacional, or CCINT) is a non-profit Christian church headquartered in San Joaquín, Santiago, Chile. Founded around 2010 per firmographic records (with ministry history stretching back ~25 years as commemorated by the "Sigues Siendo Fiel" album), the organization operates a multi-platform ministry ecosystem anchored by weekly in-person worship services (Sundays at 9:00 am, 12:00 pm, 5:00 pm; Wednesdays at 7:30 pm) and supported by a comprehensive digital and broadcast infrastructure. Its media footprint includes a digital TV channel (NCTV, channel 15.3), FM radio (Inicia Radio 90.1 FM in Santiago), a live streaming platform (tv.ccint.cl), YouTube, and multiple podcast series on Spotify (CCINT Podcast, Nosotras, Hora 23, En Familia, Camino a Emaús, Trazos). The organization is led by founding pastors Billy Bunster and Claudia de Bunster, alongside their son Felipe Bunster leading youth ministry.

CCINT's product/service portfolio extends beyond worship to include: (1) CCINT Music — an in-house worship production unit releasing albums such as "Sigues Siendo Fiel" and "Emanuel"; (2) an Online Discipleship School (discipulado.cl) with five progressive levels (Corderitos through Year 4) for theological and practical biblical education; (3) Altares HomeSchool — a K-12 Christian pedagogical program; (4) Instituto Zamar — an online music education school; and (5) Bayit — an entrepreneurship ministry offering workshops, mentoring, and practical business tools. The church also runs life groups segmented by demographic (Youth, Men, Women, Marriages, Children via Cuna Profética, Entrepreneurs), counseling services, and a network of 19 daughter churches ("Iglesias Hijas") spanning Chile (15+ locations across regions III, IV, V, VII, VIII, IX, and Metropolitan), the United States (Canyon/Nampa, Idaho), Brazil (Camboriú, Santa Catarina), and Peru (Nuevo San José Guadalupe).

The business model is donation-driven and non-commercial at its core: church membership is free, all programming is freely accessible, and revenue flows primarily through voluntary tithes/donations via an online portal (donaciones.ccint.cl) supplemented by nominal event fees (e.g., $15,000 CLP per attendee for the men's retreat). The organization is self-sustaining, has no external investors or parent company, holds Chilean Tax ID 65.737.390-7, and is governed by pastoral leadership and elders. There is no disclosed revenue or audited financials. CCINT's go-to-market is essentially broadcast and community-driven: a multi-channel media presence (Facebook, Twitter/X, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Threads, Spotify, WhatsApp, email newsletter) combined with in-person events, evangelistic crusades, retreats, and a 24/7 intercessory prayer network operational since 2014.
