Finnish Lutheran Mission

Mission

The Organization

FLM is a Bible-believing organization. Our desire and duty is to pray for the peace of Jerusalem. FLM, an official organization of the Finnish Lutheran Church, was founded in 1967. Since the very beginning, Israel has had an important role in the work and vision of FLM.

Historical Perspective

In the early 1970s, FLM started bringing study groups of Finnish young people, especially theology students, to Israel to study the Jewish roots of our faith, the Land of the Bible, and also to build bridges of friendship with the Israeli people.

Present Situation & Future Vision

FLM is deeply concerned about and wants to fight against the growing anti-Semitism and anti-Israel atmosphere in Europe and the mass media. Our representatives in Israel write articles and send pictures to Finnish papers and magazines about the Land and the people of Israel. We also want to promote understanding and peace between all the people living in this Land: Jews and Arabs and the many foreigners who live here as workers, whether short or long-term.
