This Week in Tampere Parishes: Baptisms, Marriage Banns and Deaths
Tampere's Evangelical Lutheran parishes have published this week's lists of baptisms, public banns and deaths across the city's congregations.
The local paper Tamperelainen reported the lists.
Announcements name newly baptized individuals such as Sulo Emil Kirveskoski, Mateo Lionel Patrikainen and Teresa Esmeralda Virtanen. They also list people whose marriages have been publicly called. Obituaries include many elderly parishioners. The oldest named is 99-year-old Tyyne Anna-Liisa Järvinen, alongside several in their 90s, including Terttu Marjatta Mero (98), Lyyli Piironen (94) and Aune Maria Sulkasalo (93). The full lists cover dozens of names across age groups.
The notices follow earlier weekly parish lists, including a September listing that named a 101-year-old among the deaths.
