Two thousand kilometres to the nearest city and yet in the middle of a metropolitan area. This is where the District Apostles are convening for their second international meeting this year: originally called “place with plenty of sun”, it is now better known as Perth.

Lausanne is beautifully set on Lake Geneva in Romandy, the French-speaking part of Switzerland. Surrounded by the Jura Mountains, the city enjoys a mild climate—a good destination for Chief Apostle Jean-Luc Schneider, who will be visiting the congregation on Sunday to celebrate a divine service.

“Go into all the world…”— not least of all on their travels through their home countries and the missionary regions in their care do the District Apostles fulfil their Great Commission. In so doing, they often bring along a gift or two in their luggage for the congregations they visit.

Music—this is a matter that is dear to the heart of New Apostolic congregations around the world. But the conditions vary greatly from place to place. Sometimes the only thing that helps is collaboration that transcends borders.

The Children’s Hospital Trust needs a total of one hundred million rand to expand the intensive care unit (ICU) of the children’s hospital in Cape Town (South Africa), money that will be well spent to secure the health and survival of our most precious resource, our children.

People experience fellowship when they set out and go to meet their neighbour. nac.today presents three travellers of the last few days.

A group of people engaged in Bible study attended our services and felt right at home. More highlights this week are: children and parents on stage and a pastoral care trip to the Choma-Kalomo region in southern Zambia.

There are many ways to live open and co-operative partnerships. This goes from extending hospitality to mutual acceptance to working together. And this is demonstrated by congregations and districts right around the world.

There is harmony in diversity. Music can overcome barriers between cultures, religions, and nations. Three examples from the New Apostolic world illustrate this.

Fellowship is something that New Apostolic Christians not only experience in divine service. They often also spend time together outside of church in the circle of the youth, their congregation, or even with the Chief Apostle.

Kalaallit Nunaat, as the island is called in Greenlandic, is full of contrasts: geologically it belongs to North America, politically to Europe. Four-fifths of the country is covered by a massive ice sheet year round. In summer, the coastal areas are green. Apostle Jörg Steinbrenner just loves the country and its people.

Frankfurt, a place steeped in history; a gathering of all European Apostles; a great Pentecost concert; and a large congregation that celebrated a feast of thanksgiving … This is how Pentecost 2016 will be remembered.

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.

The Pentecost concert in the magnificent Wiesbaden concert hall turned out to be a firework of sound. From old masters to new songs, the audience heard magnificent and exciting works. We captured some moving moments on camera.

“Great! Outstanding! Wonderful voices! A fantastic programme!”—such were the unanimous reactions to the evening’s musical programme. Pentecost concerts are legendary. The special thing about this year was a children’s choir from Cape Town that performed in Wiesbaden.

“Welcome!” — That is the word of the day in Frankfurt, as today is the day when all those participating in the Pentecost festivities of the New Apostolic Church are arriving. The children’s choir from South Africa—which will be performing at tomorrow’s concert—already arrived yesterday.

Pentecost is a very special feast for the New Apostolic Church—a kind of birthday celebration of the worldwide Church. Following are some highlights from four decades.

The countdown is on: 32 days to go to this year’s Pentecost celebrations. This time in Frankfurt (Germany). The preparations are in full swing and there is growing excitement. There is even a dedicated website.
