Die Zwölf-Apostel-Kirche ist die Kirche der evangelischen Zwölf-Apostel-Gemeinde im Ortsteil Schöneberg von Berlin. Kirche und Gemeinde gehören zur Evangelischen Kirche Berlin-Brandenburg-schlesische-Oberlausitz (EKBO).

Die Kirche wurde 1871--1874 nach Plänen von Friedrich August Stüler erbaut. Sie steht ganz im Norden Schönebergs fast direkt an der Kurfürstenstraße in der Nähe des Nollendorfplatzes und ist nach Süden statt nach Osten ausgerichtet. Das zugehörige Gemeindegebiet umfasst neben dem Norden Schönebergs auch große Teile des Tiergartens bis zu Siegessäule, Bundeskanzleramt, Kulturforum und Potsdamer Platz. Zur Gemeinde gehören weiterhin zwei kulturhistorisch bedeutsame Kirchhöfe Berlins, der Alte Zwölf-Apostel-Kirchhof und der Alte St.-Matthäus-Kirchhof.

The Calvin and Chapel Handbell Ringers, are high school students who perform on a set of 66 tuned, bronze bells, under the direction of Adam Peithmann. Their programs are enjoyed by all ages; they include classical and popular music, hymns, and original compositions for handbells.

The Calvin and Chapel ringers perform in concerts throughout the year. They play for worship at Tower Hill, and also ring at a host of other locations such as nursing homes, hospitals, and community service organizations. Locally, they have played in Red Bank River Center's holiday festivities, the Middletown Library, and Seabrook Retirement Village.

Over the last 30 years, the two handbell choirs have also toured nationally and internationally, performing at The White House, Disneyland, Tiffany's in New York City, and Epcot Center in Walt Disney World. They have performed in Germany and in Prague,and at the United Nations in Vienna, the American Embassy in Oslo, and in St. Paul's Cathedral in London.
