Retrospective: Intensive course on the history of the Apostolic Churches in Brockhagen
Around ten participants met last Saturday, September 13, 2025, at the Brockhagen Archive. For the first time, we were able to offer a full-day course there, which provided a condensed introduction to the history of the Apostolic Churches.
Brockhagen: Invitation to an intensive course on apostolic church history!
On September 13, 2025, we will be offering a new format at the Brockhagen Archive—a full-day event entitled “Introduction to Apostolic Church History.” This day offers a structured introduction to the history of the Catholic Apostolic movement and the communities that emerged from it. It is therefore a “crash course” that aims to summarize the most important aspects of apostolic history from its beginnings in the 1820s and 1830s to the present day.
