Swedish Baptist Union of Finland

[2] It is an umbrella organization for the Baptist churches of the Swedish-speaking minority in Finland.

The Swedish Baptist Union of Finland is a member of the Finnish Ecumenical Council.

The first Baptist church in Finland was founded in 1856 in primarily Swedish-speaking Åland.

[6] Preacher Karl Möllersvärd had been sent there by the Evangelical Alliance in Stockholm, Sweden in 1854[2][7] and was the first to preach Baptist teachings in Finland; he received strong opposition from the established Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland.

However, in 1902, Finnish-speaking Baptists formed a separate Finnish National Conference.
