This congregation is for international people living in the northern Helsinki-Vantaa metropolitan area in Finland.

You are welcome to come along!
We are a church for all born-again believers regardless of nationality, race or denomination. Everyone is welcome to join our services, in English.

Pastor
Arto Sädeaho and his wife Orvokki served for years as missionaries in SE Asia, so they know how it feels to live in a foreign land far from one’s roots. After their return back to Finland, they started (in January 2000) an international church to Espoo, the neighboring city of Helsinki in west. Then on February 2008 Pastor Arto felt led by God to hand his task pastoral over to his successor and focuses on this new church plant in Vantaa.

Team
Our core team consists of members who come from different countries and denominational backgrounds. We are united by a vision to serve to the needs of internationals, migrants and internationalized as they want to grow in their faith.

Fellowship
After each service, we take time for socializing, that gives an opportunity to spend time together and chat over a drink & snacks, This fellowship time, as it’s called, is a favorite for everyone. It’s a chance to meet new friends from the four corners of the globe and catch up with folks you haven’t seen since the previous service.

Partners
Our local key partner is the Vantaan Minttukirkko who also desires to see an international church alive in the Tikkurila – Airport area. Also others with matching spiritual vision and aims may cooperate closely with us.
