The restrictions put into place to prevent the spread of Covid-19 and protect people's health come to an end in the Diocese of Helsinki at the end of April.
Parishes return to their normal practices in their activities. However, we still encourage people to maintain good hand and cough hygiene and to avoid coming to church if you have symptoms of Covid-19 or some other easily transmissible disease. From now on, the obligation to attend Mass in person on Sundays and Holy Days of Obligation is in force again.

The March for Life starts at the Senaatintori square in central Helsinki and proceeds to the parliament building, Eduskuntatalo. Please note that participants at the march defending the dignity and right to life of the unborn are welcome to bring pro-life posters and banners, but that no other symbols or emblems may be displayed during the march.
