Even difficult paths can be part of a divine plan as the story of Joseph shows impressively. Those who believe in God’s love learn to recognise the beginnings of new hope even in suffering and guilt.

The friendliness and discipline he encountered in the church is what fascinated him already as a child. And that is exactly what Duncan Burton Mfune stood for as a District Apostle. He passed away yesterday, at the age of 88.

No new churches this year: the New Apostolic Church in the Democratic Republic Congo South-East has decided to suspend its building programme. Instead, the money will be used to invest in Sunday School.  

Those who know they have been set free from sin make a conscious decision to be God’s servant, and this out of love and gratitude. This was the subject of a recent divine service in Kenya.

Faith, love, and hope; and peace, joy, and knowledge—all of these can come to fruition through the word of preaching. But this doesn’t just happen. Here is what every believer can and must do for themselves.

Two hands that come together to form a heart. This is the 2025 logo of the New Apostolic Church Southern Africa. The idea behind it is explained in this short video clip. 

It is the big fanfare before take-off: three hundred young musicians from Germany are preparing for their tour to South Africa with a rehearsal weekend and concert. This is not their first international tour.

God is not there to make life difficult for us. On the contrary, He does more good for us than we realise—sometimes even through trials. Are you wondering how this can work? The Chief Apostle recently shed some light on this question.

Whether under mango trees or in a large church, God dwells among the people. He lives in their hearts and in His congregation. The Chief Apostle recently gave a tour of this dwelling place.

Even though things did look good for a year or two, funds are becoming increasingly scarce for non-profit organisations. For this reason, NAK-karitativ favours a specific type of donation.

The New Apostolic faith is based on the teachings of Jesus Christ. There is nothing unclear about that.  But what exactly is the teaching of Jesus? The Chief Apostle names seven aspects and invites us to test ourselves.

Hands and hearts and wonders of nature: these are the most popular symbols in the logos used by the Regional Churches to symbolise our 2025 motto “It’s time to do good!”

There is story of two brothers. The older one was a medical doctor, the younger one a doctor of pharmacy. The older one ran his own hospital as head physician, the younger one his own pharmacy. Both came from Ghana, both were named Kankam, and both were Apostles of the New Apostolic Church.

It is the fifth-largest country in Africa and yet many people know little about it. The Chief Apostle will visit Chad this weekend. He will be in Moïssala and N’Djaména on 18 and 19 January. Local brothers and sisters put together some information about the country.

The fight against sin, the struggle for grace, and the willingness to forgive are part and parcel of Christian life. The Chief Apostle used his sermon in Accra in Ghana for some important clarifications and impulses.

How long is God going to wait before He intervenes? The question is thousands of years old. And the reaction can be shocking: perhaps He will not intervene at all—at least not in the way we expect. But there is hope.

The visit of the District Apostle, a special meeting, 50 years of fellowship—there are so many reasons to celebrate. And it is not only at Christmas that brothers and sisters in faith on every continent come together to rejoice with one another.

Around half of the people in the Central African Republic depend on humanitarian aid. And this is where OSNAC, a New Apostolic relief agency, comes in. It is taking small steps and making a big difference.
