EVERYONE IN THE CAP OF THE NORTH SHALL HEAR THE GOOD NEWS
Building a church in Rovaniemi with a vision for the North.
WHY THE NORTH?
After years of serving in local churches, Nico and Noomi felt God calling them to take a step of faith and start a new church in Rovaniemi.
We believe God has not forgotten the North. In many areas people are getting older and churches shrinking, but we believe that God has something special for the North! Our desire is to see people fall in love with God, encounter His presence, discover their place and carry the Gospel to others across the North. The call of God is so valuable, we value those who have done the work for years in the North, but there has to be a new generation rising, boldy going and sharing the good news of the gospel!
“We believe God is doing something in the North—and we want to be part of it.”
New church is taking ground.
SUNDAYS
We gather every Sunday at 11:00 at Urheilukatu 1. Our current facilities are available until the end of 2026, and we are believing God for a new location with more room—especially for children.
KIDS’ CHURCH
Kids’ Church has begun. On some Sundays, there have already been more children than adults.
ONE FAMILY · MANY NATIONS
People from Finland, the United States, the Philippines and Nigeria are already part of our church family.
THIS AUTUMN
REVIVAL WEEKEND
This autumn, we are hosting a Revival Weekend with evangelist Jussi Korvajärvi. We are believing God for people to be saved, renewed and set on fire.
KIDS FUN FEST
On 31 October at 12:00, we are inviting local children and families to Urheilukatu 1 for games, competitions, prizes and a day full of light, fun and hope.
