This fellowship of the apostles was three fold. It was 1, fellowship in the teachings or doctrine of the Lord that is now known to us as the apostles doctrine v42. All churches born in Acts continued in the apostle doctrine. 2. The breaking of bread (study of the word) and its communion ritual  3. Prayer.

The church made a practice of these things that defined FELLOWSHIP
And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, (Acts 2;46)
Jesus Prayed: With one accord they all continued in prayer, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers. (Acts 1;14)
Now, brothers, if I come to you speaking in tongues, how will I benefit you, unless I bring you some revelation or knowledge or prophecy or teaching? (1 Cor 14;6). Fellowship is when we bring to each other revelation or knowledge or prophecy or teaching? and it is received, revered, accepted and embraced. that’s fellowship. Fellowship with like kind men with a like kind fire and a like kind anointing. Fellowship is where we contend for truth together, search out scriptures together, devote ourselves to the doctrine of the apostles together, share all things in common together. That’s fellowship. Men with one mind, one heart, one spirit that’s fellowship}
Its building together what we alone cannot build, its going together where alone we would not go. Its sharing together that which the Lord has given breaking the bread the word of life yes LIFE. its more than doing business its making your brother your business, that’s fellowship.
