Coronavirus state of emergency: No public Masses in Finland

16/3/2020

0 Comments

 
Picture
The government of Finland is declaring a state of emergency because of the coronavirus epidemic and bans public meetings of more than 10 people. This also means an end to public Masses in Finland's Catholic churches until further notice.

Father Marco Pasinato, Diocesan Administrator of the Diocese of Helsinki, stated on Monday evening, March 16, that the Catholic Church in Finland wishes to support the aims and actions of the Finnish government's fight against the coronavirus. "Therefore the Diocese of Helsinki in addition to the previous guidelines stops the celebration of public Masses beginning on the morning of Wednesday, March 18, 2020. However, the Church wants to emphasise that the celebration of the Sacraments in themselves and the pastoral care for those who are ill or dying is not threatened. The churches will remain open daily for prayer and spiritual ministry."

The faithful are asked to get in touch with their own parish for more detailed information.

Finnish graphic novel about St Bridget

14/10/2014

0 Comments

 
Saint Bridget of Sweden is not only the Patron Saint of Europe, she is also the heroine of a newly-published Finnish graphic novel.

The book Pyhän Birgitan perilliset (The Heirs of Saint Bridget) tells the story of Birgitta Birgersdotter and of how the Bridgettine order came to Finland. The book has been published by an association of friends of Finland's present-day Bridgettines called Birgittalaissisarten ystävät ry, so the monies from the book will be spent assisting the sisters at the convent in Turku, Finland.
Want to take a closer look at the images? Click here.

Order your copy now!

The book Pyhän Birgitan perilliset cost EUR 10 + postage if you order it online here (yes, the form is in Finnish, but it simply asks you to fill in your name, e-mail, phone number and tick whether you want one or two copies of the excellent book). If you are in Turku you can purchase your copy directly from the Bridgettine sisters on Ursininkatu 15 and if you're heading for the Helsinki Book Fair the book is available at the Catholic Information Service bookt (6e82).

Blessed Hemming Bake-Off

9/5/2014

 
The Friends of the Bridgittine Sisters Association, or Birgittalaissirarten Ystävät ry, has launched a competition to find a cake or pastry to celebrate Blessed Hemming. This year is the quincentennial of Bishop Hemming's beatification, so the association feels it's high time the 14th-century Bishop of Turku gets a cake.

The association encourages everybody and anybody to come up with a recipe for a Blessed Hemming Cake. In his lifetime, Bishop Hemming was known for his simple culinary habits, but 500 years on from his beatification, we are looking for something that would took and taste nice on the coffee table. The recipe that wins the competition will be named the Official Cake of the association. 

Please send in your recipes to vahatalo(at)iki.fi before midsumer. Do include a photo of your creation as well as an explanation of the connection between the pastry and Blessed Hemming.

The recipes will be tested in the autumn and an impartial jury will select the winner.

Bless your efforts, the Blessed Hemming Bake-off is now officially on!
