Professing one’s faith can be a real challenge. In fact, it can even turn into a struggle for survival. This is the experience of Mankee Nag, a 27-year-old Indian woman. She gives us a candid look into her life.

Passion, enthusiasm, love. This is what it takes to serve God and our neighbour. And this is what motivates Christians to do good and to contribute to society at large.

For a whole week, the leader of the New Apostolic Church will be travelling in the African continent. From 26 February to 4 March 2018, he will visit the countries of Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, and Gabon—a pastoral trip that has been planned long in advance.

Disaster relief and rebuilding programmes were the primary focus of the NAC SEA Relief Fund in the year 2016. The charity responds to calls of distress from people in need, and not just because of sensational headlines.

Envious, jealous, or even resentful? The month of October gives us an opportunity to express our gratitude for what we have—something we can certainly do throughout the rest of the year too. Following is a look at congregations around the world.

Preserving unity is the greatest challenge. With Apostle Edy the Church in South East Asia will receive an energetic Helper.

Lagos is not only the largest city in Africa, but also one of the most densely populated cities of the world. No one knows exactly how many people live there, but estimates range between 18 million and 20 million—roughly. In this great confluence of diverse cultures there are seven New Apostolic congregations.

Bengaluru Central, a congregation in the south of India, is as dynamic and diverse as the megacity itself. In addition to local members, the congregation often welcomes visitors from abroad.

For more than a decade, there were two denominations that carried the name “New Apostolic Church” in South Africa. Between 1913 and 1926 Apostle Carl Georg Klibbe, who was the more senior of the two, and Apostle Schlaphoff each led one of the New Apostolic Churches. The case was finally settled in court.
