Timeline
John Edvin Vikström (born 1 October 1931) is a Finnish priest.
As the 53rd successor of St. Henry, Vikström's era was far reaching.
During his term as the Archbishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland, the Church carried out many reforms.
The Church was given a new Bible translation and a new hymnbook, the ordained ministry has been opened to women, church law was reformed and liturgical reform was undertaken.
The Church of Finland was also active ecumenically.
Archbishop emeritus John Vikström continues to be a popular speaker in academia and business.
John Vikström has also publicly embraced the idea of a basic income as a solution to social exclusion:
"In this way, even working a little would be possible and would make sense. The system would not push people into idleness and divide citizens into winners and losers as cruelly as is the case now. I look at the question from the point of view of human dignity. A basic income paid to everyone would be less humiliating than the present benefit system can sometimes become. Basic income would send every citizen the following encouraging and motivating message: 'You are important. You are not a burden, but a resource. You are important by being a human being for others. Whatever work you do, in whatever situations, whether or not you are paid to do it, you still contribute to building our society."
The archbishop has placed the chairmanship of the Church's Social-Ethical Forum as his priority.
The forum's aim is to resolve problems in the status of the elderly and poor in Finland.
In 1957 he married teacher Birgitta Vikström (b. Hellberg) who died in 1994.
John Vikström has three children.
His brother Erik Vikström and his son Björn Vikström are both his successors as bishop of Porvoo/Borgå.
He served as the Archbishop of Turku and Finland from 1982 to 1998.
John Edvin Vikström was born to parents Edvin and Hilma Vikström.
An acclaimed author of numerous books and papers, his correspondence with Jörn Donner was voted as Book of the Year in 2002.
