A feast that will stay: Pentecost 2025 has left deep impressions and provided an outlook for the future. Here is an overview of everything there is to know.

Pentecost 2025, a divine service that will not be easily forgotten. And here are the memories for the photo album.

Before the real highlight began, the Pentecost service, a video looked back on the events of the 2025 Pentecost gathering thus far, showing clips from the arrival of the Apostles, the concert, and the District Apostle Meeting.

Things are moving. The District Apostle Meeting in Mainz (Germany) had numerous projects on its agenda with the aim of strengthening the ministers, teachers, musicians, and church life altogether.

The District Apostle Meeting in Mainz (Germany) has started. Until Friday, the District Apostles will be discussing teaching material, hymns, the Divine Service Guide, and many other topics. For now, here are a few photos.

The extra feast before Pentecost: the District Apostles and their assistants fanned out to around twenty congregations within a two-hour drive time radius on Wednesday evening to conduct divine services. Here are the evening’s pictures.

They had barely landed when the spotlight was focused on them. The District Apostles from overseas who arrived in Frankfurt (Germany) yesterday were welcomed by the social media team of the host church Western Germany. After a brief chat, they continued on to their hotel.

The New Apostolic spotlight is on two German cities this week: the International District Apostle Meeting will convene in Mainz, while the Pentecost service will be broadcast from Wiesbaden to the rest of the world.

For nearly thirty years, District Apostle Otto Gerke steered the affairs of the New Apostolic Church in Australia. He passed away twenty years ago this Saturday. Follow us as we take you back to an eventful period in Church history.

Opportunities to do good sometimes literally lie by the wayside. And it is important that we make use of them. Thoughts on our annual motto by District Apostle Rüdiger Krause (Northern and Eastern Germany).

The destination was a region that no District Apostle had ever visited before. On the way there, Tshitshi Tshisekedi used every conceivable means of transport. Pictures of a pastoral journey.

Doing good involves performing actions that benefit other people.  But even if we have the means to help, there are things that can hinder us. District Apostle Joseph Opemba Ekhuya from Kenya in East Africa explains how these can be overcome.

There are people who are still fondly remembered years later. One of them is Karl Kühnle, who was ordained a District Apostle fifty years ago today–and remained one for twenty years. 

How often do we ask, “What time is it?” Would it not be interesting if the response were “It’s time to do good!”? That is the question District Apostle Mark Woll from Canada asks as he reflects on our annual motto.

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.

“It’s time to do good!” Our motto for 2025 brought back childhood memories for District Apostle Enrique Minio of South America. And it gave a new twist to an old wish.

At least three major tasks await Herman Ernst, the new District Apostle Helper for South America. The Chief Apostle outlined the main points during the official assignment.
