The Sunday worship service

The Sunday worship service invites all Christians and all who are interested in or curious about the Christian faith to come together.

Malmi Lutheran Parish has six churches: Malmi, Pihlajamäki, Puistola, Viikki, Jakomäki and Tapanila. Worship services with Holy Communion (Holy Mass) are held every Sunday at 10 am in Malmi, Viikki and Puistola Churches and at 11 am in Pihlajamäki Church. Once a month, the worship service in Viikki Church is bilingual (English and Finnish).

During Holy Mass, the sacrament of Holy Communion (aka The Lord's Supper) is celebrated. All baptised church members are welcome to partake of the bread and wine served at the altar. Those who are not baptised Christians or who for any other reason cannot or do not want to receive the bread and wine, are welcome to come to the altar to receive a blessing. In addition to the sacrament, the worship service comprises hymns, prayers, confessions, Bible readings, and the proclamation of God's Word.
