- Finnországi Magyar Keresztény Közösség (in Hungarian), Suomen unkarilainen kristillinen yhteisö ry (in Finnish) - is an interdenominational community of Hungarian Christians living in Finland. The members of the Commmunity have different denominational backgrounds and belong to different churches. The Community is chartered as a registered association (ry) with the National Board of Patents and Registration of Finland.
Among the goals of the Community are keeping the Gospel of Jesus Christ in public focus in the Hungarian language among Hungarians living permanently or temporarily in Finland. The members of the Community organize different church activities.
Presently the Community organizes church services in the Hungarian language on a regular basis in the capital area by inviting visiting Hungarian pastors or occasionally Hungarian speaking Finnish pastors. These services start at 2:00 pm (14:00 hours) on the first Sunday of the month - except during July and August - presently in the Alppiharjun seurakuntakoti facilities of the Alppila Lutheran church.
Occasionally, also Roman Catholic masses are organized by our Catholic members in a Roman Catholic church in Helsinki with the contribution of visiting Hungarian Catholic priests.
Every Tuesday evening we have an interdenominational Bible study group gathering in the Otaniemi chapel, starting at 5:30 pm (17:30 hours).
The activities of the Community can be followed through the "Események" link - true, in the Hungarian language. The activities are supported by volunteers and on a free-willing donation basis.
The different gatherings of the Community are open for all. You are very welcome!
