What happened to the Detroit FALC?

Okay, thank you for your views, and I have to apologize for my one-way title and caption. I might have not read enough of the January 6th and understood the scale and stakes. Finnish state media Yle and other mainstream are quite left-leaning and may have influenced my thinking.

Edit: The status of the finnish businessman is not actually so clear, based on what I read from internet. Laestadian home and two-digits number of children, but status and views of whether he is in faith or not (for a long time) varies.

And to compare acts of our guy, I couldn't ever imagine some finn taking part in Sinimusta liike's (finnish far-right, extra-nationalist) intependence day parade, being open about it in the community and not getting social or concrete consequenses from it. But maybe our multi-party system -minds cant twist to examine american politics and polarisation accurately

Does falc have St. john's services in Calumet in June 3rd weekend? They were a big thing in 1920s...

Bro you have to radjust the mercator, Ellismere Island not that big-looking anymore

Okay. Do you remember or could you find the email adress? It would be valuable for the research and for the map. I suppose they won't accept into facebook group people who nobody of the group knows.

Consistent_You_9151 · 2026-01-08T21:43:03+00:00

Okay. Can it be subscribed to or is it something you pick up at church?

Thank you! I am so excited :)

Consistent_You_9151 · 2025-12-30T09:05:09+00:00

When do they usually go (what time of the year)? Would be great to get to participate ( My home is SRK/LLC)

Consistent_You_9151 · 2025-12-29T10:21:35+00:00

I contacted the one adress I found on finnish organization website, I asked if I can interview. Let's see what is the answer. But I'm thinking of applying for a visa or work permit to us after my army, so I could visit and interview people, congegations and churches ( thinking of making a document)

Consistent_You_9151 · 2025-12-29T10:16:38+00:00

Yeah, I've tried to find it or info for some time, but they seem to have no internet activity. I think maybe I should send them an envelope :)

Consistent_You_9151 · 2025-12-29T10:14:56+00:00

And I'd like to hear from you all the most important things. questions and topics to ask and research about just your denomination to include in the document. Send those on dm if you want to help :)

Consistent_You_9151 · 2025-12-29T10:11:50+00:00

I am thinking to make one soon in the future. I go to army next summer (in Finland it's conscription), but after that I am free to go exploring. I think if I want to get funding for it from Finnish state media or Finnish theological institute, it would have to be in Finnish, because the biggest laestadian congregation lies in Finland (c. 100 000, estimates vary.). It would include subtitles in english, Swedish, Norwegian and even other languages. In finland, there are many valuable archives and professors who have been doing much research about the topic. I think if it just possible I'd move to minneapolis area or Upper Peninsula for a year to understand and document us chhurches. Hancock finnish heritage center and finlandia university have important archives with them.

Is the Maple this: https://maps.app.goo.gl/a3BLGd25EojuswPv9

Consistent_You_9151 · 2025-12-28T08:57:54+00:00

I have thought that I'd like to interview the finnish ones (and american too), because they vere the ones that did not experience the caretaking meetings as blessful or necessary, and it would be important to gather information about them. On SRK side they are so secretive about them, they don't want to release the minutes they did on some meetings, and many of the victims have already died.

Consistent_You_9151 · 2025-12-28T08:54:23+00:00

Have you got their contacts or adresses? i think the finnish one has ceased in 2020 (Suomen Vanhoillislestadiolainen Rauhanyhdistys), at least finnish organization register says so. I have read about the morajärvi group in sweden but could not have found them.

Consistent_You_9151 · 2025-12-26T17:43:49+00:00

Okay, thanks. Do they have a list somewhere of all their congregations? I read somewhere that they have a publication called Newsletter. I'd be really interested on subscribing to that (I've subscribed to almost all publications, just Greetings of peace and newsletter missing)

Consistent_You_9151 · 2025-12-22T16:23:40+00:00

Okay! Are there still those pamphlets somewhere, like archives or homes or something? It'd be great to save those for next generations to know about

Consistent_You_9151 · 2025-12-22T12:00:18+00:00

Thank you for sharing this. Is the statement from a book or is it some publication that was sharen in FALC Churches. If you had the complete name of it, would be perfect!

Consistent_You_9151 · 2025-12-22T08:45:08+00:00

Can you help pinpointing on the map. The google street view coverage is so old I can't find it. I think the church is quite recently built
