Until the end of January a maximum of 30 persons are permitted to attend worship at Mikael Agricola Church. Officially the restrictions have been imposed until 17th January, but they are likely to be extended. Additional safety precautions mean we will have no choir and hymns will be kept short. After service coffee is also suspended until after the restrictions have lifted, and Sunday School/Youth Group will meet online. We hope to live-stream the services in January so you can join us from the comfort of your home!
We are grateful to Kati Pirttimaa who will preside and preach at our service to mark Epiphany this Sunday.

Best wishes and hope you can enjoy this beautiful day!

Due to the current Covid-19 restrictions, all choral activities for January 2022 are cancelled. This includes all rehearsals and choral singing at Sunday morning Sung Eucharist services at Mikael Agricolan kirkko. In addition, the number of hymns and verses sung during Sung Eucharist services will be limited.
As a result of these cancellations, a revised Rehearsal and Performance Schedule will be released in the coming weeks once the situation is clearer for February. The alterations to the schedule will mainly concern preparation for what will be the first Choral Evensong service of the year in February.
Wishing everyone a Happy New Year!
