Defined by the comforting certainty of God’s presence and the joyful expectation of Christ’s return, the 2019 Pentecost concert riveted the audience. The pictures of an inspiring performance.

These last few days, the focus of the New Apostolic congregations around the world has been on Goslar (Germany). On Sunday the Pentecost service by Chief Apostle Schneider will be transmitted to over 100 countries from here.

The transition from the International Youth Convention to Pentecost was practically seamless. But before Sunday’s Pentecost celebration there are numerous working meetings. This year’s setting is a congregation that developed from a famous mother church.

Problems are Holger Pinske’s everyday life, solving them is his passion. At the International Youth Convention, they have so far kept within reasonable bounds. A look into the IYC management and control centre.

A burglar and art thief discovers the words and miracles of Jesus—and strikes out on a new path. This is the story of I AM. The pop oratorio experienced an inspiring English-language première.

The International Youth Convention 2019 (IYC) kicked off with four divine services in nine languages on Thursday evening. Over the next three days, the up to 30,000 participants can look forward to approximately 250 different events.

Joy, grief, reverence, warmth: many a divine service is filled with emotion—especially when something special is on the agenda. However, tender feelings can also prove sensitive—which means it is also important to use fingertip sensitivity when snapping photos.

Every country, every region, and every congregation has its own peculiarities. And this is exactly what makes our worldwide fellowship so diverse and rich. Here is a medley from New Apostolic life.

Community clean-up campaigns have become the thing. Every year, the city of Düsseldorf in Germany appeals to its citizens for help in ridding the city of its litter. Now the city is ready for the International Youth Convention 2019.

Testifying by megaphone: this is how pioneer work started in Uganda. This week the New Apostolic Church there celebrated not one but two anniversaries—with the Chief Apostle as guest of honour.

It is important and good to believe in it, but the Christian message of salvation should also inspire and excite us. What this does to the individual believer and how the people around us perceive this, is what the Chief Apostle focused on in his sermon in Angola.

Simply saying “I love you” is not enough. “Do something concrete and give what is needed.” Some food for thought on Christian love from a divine service by the Chief Apostle.

The past year was marked by changes in the governing body of the Church. Four District Apostles retired in 2018. A brief retrospective on men full of generosity and energy.

Berlin is worth a visit. The more than 30 million tourists a year who visit Berlin should know. This weekend, Chief Apostle Jean-Luc Schneider will be in the German capital. He will be conducting a service in our church Berlin-Tegel.

A canvas in brilliant tone colours. This is what the regional church is working on which Chief Apostle Jean-Luc Schneider will be visiting this weekend.

I AM is the name of the pop oratorio that will be staged in English for the first time at the International Youth Convention 2019. Originally a German composition, the lyrics were translated into English by Jeremy Dawson. Life has taught him: “God gives first and asks later.”

The 2019 International Youth Convention will be full of vibrant music: during the main event in the arena, during concerts on stage, or spontaneously outside and on the go. What are the plans? How can young people participate? We spoke with Evangelist Jürgen Gerisch of the IYC Planning Committee Music.

A divine service for the departed on the congregation’s anniversary? Sure! It is not out place, at least not in Silvertown (South Africa). Joy and grief go hand in hand there.
