Hello Dear Lewis, and all friends out there...
Thank you, for your comments!
You asked about our work in Finland...
The main public work is to deliver lectures. In Oulu(100 000
inhabitant town at the centre of Finland) we have a one public
lecture per month. The other side is studying Theosophy. We have
c. twice a month a reading circle, where we study for example some
book. Two times per month we gather together to discuss some
topics. At Oulu we also quite recently got our own TS-library, wich
has since been a meeting place, and a room for informal
conversations.
At Helsinki, our capital, there is a lot more Theosophical
activities, something for almost everyday, there is e.g. a public
lecture every Sunday.
We have an own national theosophical education center in southern
Finland, there is naturally kept different kinds of seminars,
confrences and also just refreshment.
Theosophical organization has also published and translated a lot of
Theosophical literature in finnish.
If I answer your question literally; Then I must say that the work
and working goes very bad in general, since we have very bad
economic period of depression and unemployment.

Sure, finnish people are sport-crazy!
Peace to all Creatures,
Aki
