General Agreement between St. Thomas Parish and the Finnish Community in Mannheim

 

Description

The General Agreement between St. Thomas Parish and the Finnish Community in Mannheim is the first of its kind in Germany. It seals their long-lasting informal cooperation with the official promise to carry on the work of the Finnish community and the ecumene in the next decades. The General Agreement is also the result of centuries-long cultural exchanges about the work of the Protestant Church in Europe, and is a symbol of confessional and ideological unity.
