A gigantic country with a long history and a lot of people between hope and wealth—in terms of area, Russia is the largest country in the world. Its mighty capital is Moscow. The New Apostolic congregation there is comparatively small, but young and active.

Patience, loyalty, goodness, and truth—four Sundays, four virtues. They all have one thing in common: they are fruits of the Holy Spirit. And this is precisely what the divine services will be about in the month of August: the fruits of the Holy Spirit.

He makes no fuss about his person. So why bother with an article on his seventieth birthday today? Because he was Chief Apostle? And because he carried out this ministry in a very special way? And because he is a very special person who enjoys being with people and who brings people together. We are talking about Wilhelm Leber.

Giving the Church a face, following divine services on television, making children with special needs feel welcome, and celebrating an apostolic anniversary … Four items of good news in this week’s review.

An apology for past mistakes, an indication to a future without Apostles, and the call to tolerance and respect for our fellow human beings: all of this and more belongs to the concept humility as it is understood by the New Apostolic Church.

The life of New Apostolic Christians around the world is intense and exciting. This week join us for a look back at Pentecost, two church dedications, and a celebration of the Church’s beginnings.

All Jesus said was to use bread and wine to celebrate His memory. But what about the bread? With or without leaven? Red wine or white wine or even grape juice? Christianity has many answers when it comes to the question of how Holy Communion should be celebrated.

Day of the youth in Suriname, Vacation Bible School on the Philippinesa, and a marathon for a more peaceful world—all that and more is happening in God’s beautiful world.

An appeal of a special kind: Chief Apostle Jean-Luc Schneider is constantly striving to keep an eye on the younger generation of the Church.

What would the Christian church be without the Spirit? She would be spiritless. But for Christians God is triune: He is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit at the same time. Therefore, His church is not spiritless. In June, our New Apostolic services will focus on the Holy Spirit.

Pentecost in Vienna has what it takes to create milestones. So also in 1990, a year that went down in New Apostolic history. Besides being the first international conference of Apostles it was also the first international transmission of a Pentecost service. Follow us on a journey through time.

Faith overcomes borders—between countries and cultures, between poor and rich, between hearing and seeing. Following is a bouquet of colourful examples taken right out of New Apostolic life.

The liturgical year is an annual cycle of feasts that focus on Christmas and Easter. The New Apostolic Church also follows the liturgical year. What is this exactly?

“Easter? That means no school!” says little Laura. Mind you, she also knows that Easter is more than a holiday, but also a high feast of the church. It is the day when Jesus Christ resurrected from the dead.
