Reaching out to all people in order to teach them the gospel of Jesus Christ: the mission of the New Apostolic Church is not least a question of communication. What is the best way to do this? Here are some answers from three different continents.

Switzerland will now also receive a District Apostle Helper. He has been designated to succeed District Apostle Jürg Zbinden. This is the fourth such assignment in a short period of time. The designated successor is a Swiss national and already works for the New Apostolic Church Switzerland.

Motivated by the changed concept of ministry in the New Apostolic Church, the Regional Church USA developed a preparatory process for potential ministers. Alberto Marquez was one of the first to go through it. He has been serving as a Deacon in his congregation in the Bronx, in New York City, since May 2022.

What about the position of women in the early Christian churches? The biblical findings are riddled with contradictions. How does the New Apostolic Church see this? Here is the second interim conclusion on the question of what the New Testament says about the ordination of women.

Not only the ministers and those who have functions in the Church are committed, but members of all ages. Everyone contributes their gifts be it in making music, knitting for the less fortunate, or by sharing advice with others.

The Church is more than just faith, doctrine, and community. It also involves organisation. By what principles is the institution to be governed? And how can these be implemented on a global scale? This is the current focus of the Church’s leadership.

In the end, it was only one link that changed: after almost three years, our Friday list of online services is no longer necessary, thankfully. Here is a look back on an eventful period.

How did the Pentecost service get to the various congregations? In very different ways. And some, like the Democratic Republic of Congo, made a celebration of their own out of it.

Working with heart, soul, and mind: discussions by the District Apostle Meeting were on the agenda for day two and three of the 2023 Pentecost council in Cape Town.

The feast before the feast: twenty-two congregations across the Western Cape had their midweek service conducted by a District Apostle or a District Apostle Helper. The congregation in Tafelsig experienced a special surprise—and for good reason.

The agenda has been defined and the conference equipment is set up: starting today, the International District Apostle Meeting is in session. Yesterday, the host and the team from the New Apostolic Church International put the final touches on their preparations.

Over the next few days, the focus of the New Apostolic world will be on Cape Town in South Africa. The Chief Apostle and the District Apostles have gathered in the city for the International District Apostles’ Meeting. They will conduct divine services, attend a concert in Silvertown, and celebrate the birthday of the church on Pentecost.

The 2023 Pentecost festivities in South Africa have started: the participants are currently arriving. The first to arrive in Cape Town on Tuesday was the Chief Apostle. Tonight, the District Apostles will fan out to various congregations to conduct divine services. Here are pictures of the arrivals.

The building can already be identified as a place of worship from the sky: a huge emblem is cast into the roof of the Tafelsig church building. But that is by no means the only unique feature of the congregation which will host the 2023 international Pentecost service.

New Apostolic Christians far beyond Zambia’s borders are reacting with dismay and sadness to a fatal road accident that has killed 24 people, most of them women, who were on their way to a church event.

Already as a twelve-year-old, District Apostle Mark Woll from Canada made the experience that even the boss of a company is really nothing but a servant. In his Spotlight article he explores how much serving there really is in reigning.

Jesus, women, and the apostolate… While the biblical findings are indisputable, they do not provide clear answers. How does the New Apostolic Church treat this? Here is the first interim conclusion on the question of what the New Testament says about the ordination of women.

New Apostolic Christians from all over the world can tune into this year’s Pentecost celebration on two occasions. Not only will the divine service on Sunday be broadcast but also the concert on Saturday. And the hosting district is quite famous for its music.
