Join the Church

Divine services are the core of Orthodoxy and of the parish. Especially the Divine Liturgy is the centre of Orthodox life. In the service, the parish strives to be in connection with God through prayer, both as individuals and as a community. Attending the services and familiarising yourself with them is very important if you are considering joining the Church.

Come and see first

You can come to a service without registering and without any prior knowledge. Times and places are in the service calendar, and practical guidance for a first visit is on the page Your first visit to church.

Catechumen education

The parish offers catechumen education for those considering joining the Church. The teaching is currently given in Finnish; details are on the page Liity kirkkoon.

When you want to talk about joining

If you have questions about joining the Church, do not hesitate to contact the clergy of our parish. You can discuss your personal process of joining the Church in more detail with a priest.
