The Apostolic Church is a Christian denomination that emphasizes the teachings and practices of the early apostles. It originated in the early 20th century during the Pentecostal movement, focusing on the experience of the Holy Spirit and the importance of spiritual gifts, such as speaking in tongues and healing. Members of the Apostolic Church believe in the authority of the Bible and the necessity of baptism for salvation. They often gather for worship services that include prayer, singing, and preaching, aiming to foster a close-knit community centered on faith and discipleship.
