Tampere Baptist Church

This is a picture of the Baptist Church in Tampere, Finland, It is located at Kissanmaankatu 19. I have attended their Sunday morning service twice.

The people at the church were friendly and welcomed me. There is a nice lady who translates the service into English. She sits behind the last pew on the left side, and those who need the translation sit on the last pew and listen to her.

An older lady told me that this is the oldest Free Church in Finland. This would mean that it was the first church in Finland that was not connected to the state church. The state church is the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland. She told me that this church is over 100 years old.
