SUNDAY’S SPECIAL SPOT – PIHTIPUDAS CHURCH (FINLAND)

It was my momma’s birthday yesterday! So in her honour I am posting a photo of the church that is well known in her home town. She grew up in the region of Central Finland, in the small village of Pihtipudas. As a child I can remember her lovingly working on a needlepoint project of this very church. She told me how lovely it was and that she had fond memories of it. One day I will visit this church that holds a spot in my mother’s heart (even though I myself am not religious) to honour her.

Pihtipudas Church


This area of Central Finland (Keski-Suomi) has numerous lakes, 140 in all. The village also entertains an annual javelin carnival. I can not wait to visit.
