He wowed the audience. “Fantastic interpretation” is what people said in the congregations and on the social networks. And always the same question: who is this guy who worked so hard during the Pentecost service?

“Here I am”—the website for the International Youth Convention of the New Apostolic Church in Düsseldorf (Germany) has gone online two years early. The website and an app will provide news and information around the upcoming youth event.

Riveting, entertaining, and of an exceptional standard: these superlatives best describe the 2017 Pentecost concert in Vienna. The concert in the unique ambience of the Wiener Konzerthaus was not only a feast for the ears.

Sitting on the couch or relaxing on the terrace? — “Go into all the world!” No time to rest! Our ministers make their way all around the world: high up into the mountains, far into the interior of countries, and over vast continents.

Ten satellites and eleven ground stations will make it possible: on Pentecost, the New Apostolic Church around the world will edge closer to one another and form one large congregation. And in the process the central divine service will return to the place of its roots.

It all began with a newspaper ad… This year, the New Apostolic Church in Brazil is celebrating its 90th birthday—with a lot of music, a youth convention that transcends borders, and an unusual invitation to all.

A few good ideas, a bit of money, and a hands-on approach—and before long things start rolling: for the individual, for everybody. And sometimes things go a lot quicker and better than hoped for.

Invoking the help of God even if terror and conflicts do not disappear entirely. Helping and supporting even if hunger cannot be eradicated. Making music even if the audience does not go wild … Following is a look into some of our New Apostolic congregations.

A city that was founded twice, and a region that was once the focal point of a struggle for independence: these are the two travel destinations on Chief Apostle Jean-Luc Schneider's upcoming trip to Argentina.
