Neuapostolische Kirche Köln-Rath

“Welcome to the house of the lord, brother,” a man whispered as he walked past me, entering the Neuapostolische Kirche Köln-Rath. Right here, at Rather Mauspfad 69a, stands the Neuapostolische Kirche Köln-Rath. A beacon of faith in the bustling city of Cologne. This unassuming yet beautiful church, with its simple design, holds a significant place in the hearts of the New Apostolic community here in the Rath district. You might be surprised to know that the roots of the New Apostolic Church, and thus this very building, can be traced back to a schism. In 1863, a group of believers separated from the Catholic Apostolic Church in Hamburg, Germany. They believed in the need for a restored apostle ministry, a belief that forms the cornerstone of the New Apostolic faith to this day. Every Sunday at 9:30 AM, the Neuapostolische Kirche Köln-Rath comes alive. The voices of the congregation unite in prayer and song, led by Vorsteher Werner Blödorn. The church also opens its doors every Wednesday at 7:30 PM, welcoming all who seek solace and spiritual guidance. The New Apostolic community here firmly believes in the power of fellowship and welcomes friends and guests with open arms. The Neuapostolische Kirche Köln-Rath isn’t just bricks and mortar. It’s a testament to the enduring power of faith, a place where the past whispers through the present, and where the hope of the future resonates in every hymn.
