Miracle: holy communion items untouched in New Apostolic Church fire
Chalices and bibles were all undamaged when the New Apostolic Church Towerby in Johannesburg South District burned down.
The New Apostolic Church Towerby in Johannesburg South District is praising a miracle after holy communion chalices and Bibles were left untouched during a fire that tore through the church this week. The blaze destroyed the building entirely on Tuesday, August 25. No injuries were reported, and the cause of the fire remains unknown.
In a statement, the church expressed deep sorrow over the total loss of their church building, which is now condemned and unusable. Miraculously, the sacristy sustained only minor damage, and the holy communion chalices and Bibles remained untouched. The church reported that no one was injured in the incident and that all scheduled congregational activities for the week were cancelled.
However, the leadership team is actively working on plans for the upcoming Sunday divine service with the Apostle, and they will share the details once confirmed. The church appeals for everyone to join in prayer for its congregation and for the District Apostle, who will determine the best course of action for housing the congregation.
