Falu Kristine Church will screen Sweden’s World Cup match against Japan. Vicar Sofia Mogård views the church space as a fitting venue for intense emotions.
The church previously screened Sweden’s World Cup opening match. The event is repeated for the game against Japan.
Sofia Mogård explains that people gather in the church for joy, sorrow, despair and gratitude. She states that a football match belongs in the same emotional category.
The arrangement continues the church’s practice of opening the space for shared experiences.
