The year 2017 marked an anniversary year. Exactly one hundred years before, the New Apostolic Church had started to officially celebrate Holy Communion without sharing the cup. Here is a brief recap of our wafer history.

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?

Once the decision was made the problems started in earnest: how will the wine get on the wafers? The long road from handmade applicators and waffle irons to fully automated production facilities.

God aspires to the indestructible fellowship with mankind. To do so, He pursues many paths: even the one of the cross. No obligation, no constraint: God loves first, and His love is boundless.

Three drops are celebrating their centenary. On Good Friday 1917, the Chief Apostle officially celebrated his first divine service without sharing the cup. Instead he dispensed communion wafers. What is normal today had become an absolute necessity at the time. Why?

April is just around the corner. Time to ask yourself: do you really believe what you believe? This month really has it all: it is high season for Christians. The calendar is packed. Palm Sunday, Good Friday, and Easter are all coming up.

Easter is not only a date in the calendar. Easter is the culmination and the final destination of a path consisting of many stages. And the starting point is today.

The new year not only brings a new motto and good wishes with it, but also concrete plans and unique meetings.

Music speaks to the soul—in joy as well as in sorrow. Our review this week looks at a choral competition, a choir practice, a memorial service, and a wedding anniversary.

The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. What exactly is this harvest? And who are the workers? The Chief Apostle has two interpretations. Following is the summary of a divine service directed not only at ministers.

Young people are also a special target group for churches. They are in the blossom of life and are very important for the Church of the future. It is for this reason that special offers and concepts are developed for them. Following are some examples:

It is not unusual for the Church to transmit its divine services. When a service is aired on national television, however, it is a little unusual. That is what is going to happen in East Africa this weekend .

Understanding God’s word and preaching it correctly, this is what the Chief Apostle spoke about during a divine service for ministers recently. And he also included their wives.

If they are not practising then they are singing. And that with the right amount of talent, hard work, and stunning warmth and friendliness. Follow us as we take you on an excursion over an extended weekend with members of the Cape Town Children Choir.

Preparations for the Pentecost divine service are in full swing. After a good year of planning there remains only a short window of time for this in the end—and there is a good reason.

On site in Frankfurt: the Apostles have assembled from many countries of Europe. Chief Apostle Jean-Luc Schneider has invited them for an Apostle Meeting and a Pentecost divine service—a rare celebration.

When the Chief Apostle visits a congregation, he is usually the only Chief Apostle there. Not so in the congregation of Nordheide. Chief Apostle Jean-Luc Schneider celebrated the divine service while the retired Chief Apostle Wilhelm Leber played the organ—something rare indeed.

Good Friday to Easter — eventful days bursting with emotion. And full of active characters. Victims, culprits, observers—they all contribute to this extraordinary chapter in the history of God's salvation.
