Is Tafelsig, the congregation hosting the 2026 Pentecost service, the largest New Apostolic church in the world? The answer is not entirely straightforward, as it depends on how one counts.

From pivotal moments in church history to musical highlights and major transitions, the Silvertown congregation has long been—and remains—a centre of New Apostolic life in South Africa. 

As the host of this Pentecost celebration, the Regional Church of Southern Africa looks back on a journey marked by faith, steady growth, and enduring solidarity—from its first mission to the Regional Church that it is today. 

From humanitarian aid and creative youth initiatives to revitalised congregations and the sound of music. Faith in action can be seen all over the world. 

A colourful spectacle for all ages, full of excitement, team spirit, and racing. The annual Gauteng Dragon Boat Regatta had all this plus more to offer. A picture and its story. 

After the rain the sun returns—and with it double splendour. A double rainbow arches over our church in Gordon’s Bay in South Africa, our picture of the month for April.

It is never too early … The little girl watches the lively bustle with wide-eyed curiosity. Young and old, loud and quiet, cheerful and thoughtful—so many different stories come together. Women who are aware of their strength have gathered to celebrate International Women’s Day. 

A basket, a cloth, and a pair of scissors—simple items that symbolise something bigger. This young lady holds the “key” to a newly inaugurated youth centre in Guinea-Bissau. Our picture of the month for February from the report on the inauguration captures a moment of new opportunities.

The excitement had been building for months: the youth centre in Guinea-Bissau was finally completed and inaugurated with a divine service, traditional dances, and a shared meal. 

For seven months, a newly established congregation in Portugal gathered for divine services in a garage. Now, the congregation has moved into its own church—and the members are delighted.

Threatening waves and outstretched hands: these are the most common motifs in the logos depicting our 2026 motto. Here are the official designs of the District Apostle Areas.

New Apostolic television at the push of a button … How is that possible? Zambia is making it possible because all people should have access to the gospel. 

Dreams that become reality? Good prospects in life? Opportunities for further development? All this is possible in Chabota. 

You don’t have to possess a lot to be able to give. The International Day of Charity on 5 September serves as a reminder of this. A congregation in Denver, Colorado (USA) sets a lasting example. 

A globe, trees, flowers, and our Church’s emblem: all these were drawn by children from Colombia as a logo for a project named “Recycling in Christ”. Here are the pictures and the story.

A divine service in a garage? Well, for a New Apostolic congregation in Portugal this is practically its birthplace. The whole thing has to do with a trend that is not only evident there.

There are five New Apostolic congregations on the Canary Islands. Holidaymakers, people spending the winter there, and new arrivals come together here.

A new job, a new life, and two new congregations in the process … Here is the story of how New Apostolic Christians from South Africa found a new spiritual home in the Channel Islands.
