This is apartheid, but I'm glad that it's not as strict as in Australia, Canada, France, Israel etc. But I wish we would have chosen the same path as the other Nordic countries.

"While it remains to be seen how widespread use of the pass will be, the types of establishments which could request the pass include: sports venues, gyms, swimming pools, theatres, museums and similar cultural spaces as well as bars, restaurants and nightclubs."

@tanjaostman Last summer in Italy they introduced the pass as now in Finland. Then in September for those who work in schools and from 15 October for all workers. I hope that in Finland they do not do as in Italy. I pray that everything can go back to normal, in the name of Jesus.

@faith20 I appreciate your prayers! What's going on in our world feels like a bad dream, that I hope to wake up from... Yesterday I shared a post with my Facebook friends (it was in Finnish) of a medical doctor. She had signed a petition to the public health authorities and government about not giving the vaccine to children. It was initiated and written by several Finnish researchers, professors, MDs and others. She was fired from her job only for signing that!! How are you and your wife doing now as you have lost your jobs?

@tanjaostman I think one thing and for the first time I would like to express it. I think the western church needs a lot of help from the eastern church. For example, the persecuted church in Eastern countries has a long experience of suffering and how to deal with certain situations and crises, how to deal with persecutors, how to deal with famines, and so on. Now is the time to pray for the Western as well as the Eastern Churches and to share spiritual and practical strategies for dealing with what is happening in the world. Of course there are Christian books of testimonies (few in Italian) but I think that we need to prepare spiritually and biblically the Christians of the Western world who for too many years have underestimated the warnings of holy men of God.

@faith20 you are so right regarding learning from the underground persecuted church! That's why I found Back to Jerusalem so intersted. I don't want persecution here, but we see some signs... things are changing rapidly in our society, so we need to be prepared that anything can happen.
