Dette gjør vi
Åpen Sjømannskirke
Hver uke fra onsdag til søndag har vi åpen Sjømannskirke fra kl 11-16 (10-15 på søndager)
Her kan du nyte utsikten, med en vaffel og en kopp kaffe i hånden. Du kan sette deg ned i vårt flotte leseværelse for en prat med noen av de ansatte elller andre besøkende.
Vi har alltid åpen kirke i åpningstiden. Ta gjerne turen ned til kirken. Der kan du søke stillhet, bønn, vandre mellom de ni bønnestasjonene du finner det, eller bare ta en tur ned for å se. Alt er lov.
Gudstjeneste hver søndag kl 11. Den andre søndagen i måneden er det svensk gudstjeneste.
