We invite you to participate in a unique internet project – “Golden Years – A Living Time Line”. We intend to present a journey through the history of the New Apostolic Church in the United States, in words and pictures.

Would you please share your old photographs with us – pictures from the events throughout the years? Please identify persons, locations and approximate dates. We will arrange a time line from the earliest gatherings in New York and Chicago through the blessed expansion to the South and West.

If you will mail us your photos we will insure that they will be safely returned to you, or, if possible, scan and e-mail them to us.

Please discuss this project with all our members. Some may not have access to the web and would need your help in participating. Please send your photos and comment to webmaster@nac-usa.org. If you have questions or need further details please contact us at the same address. Our mailing address is:

The best way to keep good deeds in memory is to keep them refreshed with new ones.

The tea kettle sings, even when it is up to its neck in hot water.

Count your age by friends, not years.
Count your life by smiles, not tears.

He who has little and says it's enough, has more than he who has much and wants more.

A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart...and sings it back to you when you have forgotten the words.

Sinning wouldn't be so popular if its wages were paid immediately.

A friend is someone who reaches for your hand, but touches your heart.

It is not where we are, but what we are, that creates our happiness.

Which are you?
A raft that goes down the stream,
A sailboat that goes with the wind,
A steamboat that has the power within.

A man's character and his garden
both reflect the amount of weeding
that was done during the growing season!
