It is important during the time of Advent that we dedicate more time to prayer, penance and reading the Bible. We encourage all parishioners to attend the sacrament of confession before Christmas.

During the Advent we support those in need. Caritas Finland’s Advent Collection supports small farmers in Nepal. We can donate via Caritas web page www.caritas.fi, directly to Caritas bank account, via MobilePay or to the donation box in the church.

The First Communion and Confirmation classes in English will be on Saturday at 10 am in the parish hall.

A Christmas dinner for lonely people will take place on Sat 21.12. There will be a Mass at 6 pm and a dinner afterwards in the parish hall. Welcome.

We invite children to a Sunday school in Finnish. The meeting will take place on Sunday, 10.12. at 10 am in the parish hall. Holy Mass in Finnish for children will be at 11.30 am.

There will be a Family Mass on Christmas Eve at 2.00 p.m. We ask children who wish to take part in the Christmas play to come to the parish hall at 12.00 am. There is a list of roles on the notice board for parents to write their numbers on.

Elders and homebound persons can ask a priest to visit them at home and to bring the Holy Communion. For that, please contact our parish office.
