The church exists in Rio de Janeiro for more than 50 years
It was founded for religious purposes
We have cults, we have all the religious activities that interest
The Nordic people living in Rio de Janeiro, or even visiting
We baptize, celebrate wedding, and all the religious calendar
Christmas, advents, the celebration of Saint Luzia Day
and also the church stands as a promoter of Scandinavian culture here in Rio de Janeiro
She is a promoter of Scandinavian culture here in Rio de Janeiro
Since it helds several cultural events
These events are all focused on the Nordic community in Rio de Janeiro
Together with his friends, all who live here can bring their friends and family, of course
But the church is not focused on Scandinavian cultural activities for Brazilian people
It`s located in Rio de Janeiro due to a Scandinavian colony that lives in Rio
Depending on the Scandinavian or Nordics, if you want, that visits Rio de Janeiro
It has this role of developing cultural activities, and also a meeting place
where they can always come to meet, read newspapers to communicate over the Internet, speaking the Nordic languages
We speak all the Nordic languages
There are those who speak Finnish, Norwegian, Swedish
and believe it or not, we understand each other in Scandinavian language
The only language that is more difficult for others is Finnish
That is not is not an Indo-European language
So when it comes to Finnish language, there must be a Finnish person on site
We have a small colony, but we have a Finnish colony in Rio de Janeiro
So, we have activities, we have a social role, which is also important
that is to keep the different northern colonies of Rio de Janeiro
Nordic maintain this tradition, making them feel at home
away from home, they are far from their land, but they are at home here on Flamengo Beach, in the Scandinavian Church
Another thing that is important is also the social role of helping those who are in need
Usually tourists that arrives in a large city with many inhabitants
They doesn`t have cities that big
A kind of city that can present problems, and unforeseen problems for any tourist
And for the nordic tourist, the Scandinavian Church`s doors are open
We welcome them, we can help them because we speak their language
And we are always in touch with our consulates
