The program includes four group events in total. During the first meeting, we will get to know each other and connect with people who share similar interests. After that, you can arrange smaller group meetings at your convenience between the common gatherings. Whether it’s grabbing coffee, visiting art exhibitions, playing board games, or anything else you enjoy—you decide! 

The Friends Program is organized by Aalto Chaplains Marjaana Faugel and Anu Morikawa, in cooperation with Deacon Anni Rusi from Tapiola Parish. The program is open to everyone, regardless of religion or worldview.
