Advent

Advent is a church season of preparation and anticipation as we await the Incarnation. Often it is when are lives are most busy as they are during this season that we most need to take time to pause.

We hope you are reading or listening to our daily Advent Reflections. The daily reflections are done by fellow parishioners and you can listen to them as a podcast on our channel on Spotify, Apple Music: Holy Apostles Brooklyn Podcasts.

Christmas Concert

The choir of the Church of Holy Apostles in Brooklyn is thrilled to invite you to our 2nd annual Christmas concert. We’re decking the halls and lighting the lights so please join us as we sing holiday favorites new and old.
