Although pastoral and organisatorial duties are performed voluntarily and all services are provided free of charge the church still needs financial means e.g. for building and maintaining the churches as well as for central administrative tasks.

The church finances the fulfillment of these various tasks through its members offerings. These offerings are voluntary and are put anonymously into the offertory box. Direct payments into the churches account are also possible. No church-tax is imposed.

The New-Apostolic Church makes no specifications as to the amount of the financial offerings. According to Biblical References however the criterion " a tenth" applies (cf Numbers Ch 18 Verse 24). God blesses every offering as in the divine law of sowing and reaping. It is often not easy for outsiders to understand that these money offerings are paid without any outside pressure. The event of divine blessing must be experienced.

The principle applies, that contributions into our offertory box or payments into the church account are used for general financing of the church budget.

We also offer special paying-in possibiliteis for those wishing to make regular contributions to the offering. These types of payment are then processed automatically and are reflected in the offering account of the repsective congregation. You may request paying-in slips from the following address:
