If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [the church the apostles and the elders welcome them]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τῆς ἐκκλησίας, καὶ τῶν ἀποστόλων, καὶ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων

the assembly (Some words not found in SR-GNT: παραγενόμενοι Δέ εἰς Ἱεροσόλυμα παρεδέχθησαν ἀπό τῆς ἐκκλησίας καί τῶν ἀποστόλων καί τῶν πρεσβυτέρων ἀνήγγειλαν τέ ὅσα ὁ Θεός ἐποίησεν μετʼ αὐτῶν)

Luke is using the phrase the church to mean the people who were associated with the church. Since he mentions the apostles and elders separately, here means the ordinary members of the church. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the members of the church]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
