2026 Pilgrimage to Finland Application
Please complete this application for the 2026 pilgrimage to Finland no later than October 15th, 2025. The purpose of this pilgrimage is to unite Orthodox Christians from different parts of the world to share in culture and fellowship. While on this pilgrimage, you will get the chance to meet the Orthodox young adult community, visit different churches, immerse yourself in Finnish culture, experience Theophany at a monastery, and more!

To see more, visit this page of the Telos Center website:

Through a Telos Center ministry grant, accommodations and program costs are covered. Participants will be responsible for purchasing flights and meals.
 Flights from Boston to Helsinki are relatively inexpensive (right now, the flights from Boston to Helsinki roundtrip in January are $500-600). Telos will be organizing the schedule, transportation while in Finland, lodging, and introductions to the community.
