Worship services in Finnish and Swedish are held on Sundays and on some weekdays in churches and chapels throughout Espoo. In this page you will find information about our Sunday services in English and bilingual services, in both English and Finnish.
We welcome seekers, saints, and sinners from every culture and all walks of life.
We look forward to seeing you at our services and other activities, getting to know you better, and welcoming you into our international family.
CHILDREN ARE WELCOME.
All our services are child-friendly, offering Sunday School, Children’s Club, or Children’s Corner.
WE RECOMMEND: Our Worship services continue from end of August onwards. If you wish to attend international Worship services in the meantime, look out the Worship Services in Tikkurila, Vantaa and at St. Matthews International Lutheran Church in Itäkeskus, Helsinki. Both are easily accessible with public transport. Tikkurila in Vantaa by train, and Itäkeskus in Helsinki by the metro.

The Bilingual Worship Services continue in September.
There is no bilingual service on the fifth Sunday of the month.
All these services are child-friendly, with Sunday school in Finnish and/or English, a children’s club, or a special children’s play corner available.
Regular bilingual services do not occur in the summer. Service times and locations may change during Christmas and New Year. Please check our Activity Calendar. For worship services and activities in other languages, click here.
There are no ongoing Bible study groups in English, but we can organise them if there is interest. A monthly Bible study group in basic Finnish meets in Suvela Chapel before the international service. It is open to everyone. If you are interested in an English Bible study, please let us know, and we will see if we can form a group.
