Английская Википедия:Adventist Church of Finland
The Adventist Church of Finland (Шаблон:Lang-fi) is a Protestant Christian religious community that began operating in Finland in 1892.[1] In 2017, it had about 4,700 members,[2] and more than 60 parishes.[3]
Adventism arrived in Finland from the United States via Sweden in the early 1890s.[4][5] Adventism initially gained a foothold among the Swedish-speaking population. The movement became an association in 1920, when the Finnish Seventh-day Adventist Philanthropists' Association (Шаблон:Lang-fi) was registered. The strongest area of the movement in the 1920s was Turku and Pori with their surroundings; the best known of these is the Шаблон:Ill, also known as the Betel Church.[6] Swedish-speaking Adventists formed their own organization in the late 1920s.[7]
