Zentralgottesdienst 2023 aus Essen mit Bezirksapostel Storck

In midsummer temperatures, the New Apostolic Christians in western Germany experienced this year's central worship service on September 10, 2023. In his sermon, District Apostle Storck encouraged them to draw strength from fellowship and, with their eyes on Christ, not to be discouraged by the godlessness of this world. "Dear friends near and far," District Apostle Rainer Storck greeted his fellow believers in Essen-Altenessen and in the many congregations that followed the service live online. The 2023 central worship service was broadcast to Belgium, Luxembourg, France, the Netherlands, Portugal, and other countries in Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. The sermon was translated into eight additional languages. The District Apostle chose Psalm 73:23-24 as the basis for the service: "Yet I will continue in you continually; for you hold me by my right hand; you guide me with your counsel; you will accept me with honor in the end."
